Kiteboard Chemical NOVO Strapped HDCC
Program
The Chemical HDCC is the ultimate surfboard, and built for maximum performance.
Presentation
Push the limits with the Chemical HDCC: the ultimate innovation for peak performance.
Innovation is at the heart of everything we create. Featuring a revolutionary construction, the Pie HDCC sets a new standard for high-end boards, combining unmatched flexibility, reactivity, performance, and durability, all while remaining incredibly lightweight.
Beyond its groundbreaking qualities, HDCC technology embraces the no-volume board concept. Our new “Novo” range introduces shapes where volume is minimized to the essentials. In kitesurfing, excessive volume can be a drawback, making the board bounce unnecessarily, whereas thickness is less critical when the kite provides vertical lift. With a stance lower in the shape and ultra-thin rails, the responsiveness and precision in turns and maneuvers are simply stunning.
The volume reduction made possible by HDCC technology— the only one capable of providing the necessary strength for such thin boards—delivers an incredibly refined feel on the water. Just as twin tips evolved from thick to thin and flat in the early 2000s, Novo boards are revolutionizing kitesurf boards by optimizing the essentials: surface, rocker, and rails.
Everything unnecessary is removed, leaving only pure glide. You feel more in control than ever, effortlessly pushing your surf turns to the next level. In freestyle, the lightness, dynamism, and precision of the "Novo" boards are game-changers for landing tricks. Even in choppy waters, the board stays connected to your feet, eliminating unwanted bounce. The result? An unrivaled sensation of glide.
With a 100% shortboard shape, the Chemical HDCC combines smoothness, precision, and radical performance. Its maneuverability and responsiveness deliver a natural flow, instantly connecting your feet to the wave.
Its outline optimized for performance, combined with the ultra-thin HDCC construction and a hull featuring a wide channel, ensures exceptional control and impressively smooth, instinctive rail-to-rail transitions.
Ideal for quality waves, from waist-high to solid double overhead and beyond, the Chemical HDCC excels in precise bottom turns, powerful snaps, and tight carves. Its explosive acceleration and intuitive maneuverability let you charge every section with flow and style.
With no excess volume, there’s no bounce—just pure control, allowing you to ride harder without compromise.
More than just a board, the Chemical HDCC is an invitation to turn every session into a unique experience. Designed for demanding and passionate riders, it unlocks new possibilities in the waves and helps you push your own limits.
Delivered in a strapped version with a full pad, it will bring you incredible comfort and ease, while also giving you more control in jumps by allowing total commitment.
With the Chemical HDCC, every wave becomes an opportunity to unleash your creativity.
