Features and Benefits

The NTT combined with our new TheTrack system features CUSTOMIZE X6 adjustability.

X1 - PAD DISTANCE
The pad distance depends on your size, your riding style and, of course, your personal preferences. A narrow distance is usually more comfortable because it makes the board feel softer. Furthermore, a narrow distance saves strength and is therefore preferred by freeriders. Freestylers usually chose a wider distance. This provides a lot of pop and permits more aggressive edging. The wide distance gives the rider more control in tricks and landings, however, it also makes riding more strenuous.

X2 - PAD POSITION RELATIVE TO THE EDGES
The position of the pad on the board in relation to the heel and toe edge greatly influences the board’s riding characteristics. With very wide boards or very small feet it is recommended to move the binding towards the heel edge. This increases pressure on the heel edge and facilitates upwind riding. A central position of the foot between the two edges provides better stability in landings. Narrow boards and large feet also benefit from a central position.

X3 - PAD ANGLE
In the basic setting the angle is 10°. The pad angle depends strongly on the rider’s personal preferences. Some riders prefer a position with the front foot rotated far to the outside. We recommend a greater angle for these riders.

X4 - ADJUSTING THE STRAP CONTACT SURFACE
Adjusting the NTT SplitStrap allows you to find the right balance between personal comfort and optimum grip. The more you open the split, the better the grip in your NTT! The narrower you set the split, the greater your mobility within the straps.

X5 - FOOD LENGTH ADJUSTMENT
The entire NTT SplitStrap can be moved back and forth on the NTT ContactPad. The right position depends on your foot length. We recommend adjusting the NTT SplitStrap so that your toes reach over the toe edge.

X6 - FOOT WIDTH ADJUSTMENT
You can vary the NTT SplitStrap’s width independently of the Velcro adjustment on the NTT ContactPad. This helps optimize the NTT’s fit according to your foot width. Furthermore, you can change the width if you use neoprene booties!

RECOMMENDED STANCE
The central triangles on the NTT ContactPad and inside The Track System indicate the Entity Combo’s basic setting, also known as the Recommended Stance. The Recommended Stance has been individually determined for each North Kiteboarding board. Some riders may prefer a different position. The section Customize X6 explains the various possibilities for individual tuning.
