Marc Jacobs one of the top PKRA freestyle riders joined the Switch development team to design a board for freestyle competition riding. On the PKRA world tour, competitors have to perform as many high performance tricks in the competition area in all types of conditions from waves, chop, flat water mixed with light to strong winds.

To dominate in these diverse conditions Marc needed a board that had explosive pop for high performance tricks, fast upwind ability to stay high in the competition area to perform more tricks, a smooth controlled ride in any water conditions and finely tuned flex for extra control in hard landings.

The MJ COMP is developed to perform in anything the PKRA could dish out and also strong enough to handle Marc's extremely powerful riding style.

thumbIs this board for you?
The MJ COMP ticks all the boxes for what makes a perfect alround freestyle twintip.

- Excellent upwind performance
- Massive pop
- Smooth spray free ride
- Perfect flex and control in landings

The MJ COMP is a progressive design that has all the high-end performance a pro needs to dominate competitions while maintaining an easy predictable feel that will help the novice push there riding to the next level.

Nitro 16V2 Review

by drwack » Sat Feb 09, 2013 9:42 pm 
on Switch Kites forum

Hello,

The Nitro II 16m was the first kite I purcahsed from Switch. My goal was to have something I could ride every day of the summer sea-breeze which will blow anything from 8-16. I am a 75kg rider with both an older 2010 model race board and a 135 TT. Racing is my goal but I need to get the basics on tacking and gybing a directional before I head back home (San Francisco). 

With a day or two practice I could fly the kite in 8 knots and ride the race board, 10 knots for the TT. I find myself flying the 16m in up to 14 knots on the race board, I can ride it in more but it pulls hard and makes the upwinds really tiring. If the breeze passes 14 I ride in an grab the TT to burn around on and launch into the air with, back rolls on it are a dream.

If you do want to get out in the light stuff the 16m Nitro is a great kite. My range on it at 75kg is 8-16knots, a bit more if on a TT and you like to be POWERED. A better rider could fly it in lower winds with long lines, I am just not there quite yet.
