"What is a Parabolic Flex System?"
PARABOLIC FLEX SYSTEM: This is a new type of bodyboard core that is just now being used in the market of bodyboarding in the United States. The NMD/VS Parabolic Flex System features a semi-rigid central core component, thermo-bonded to two flexible outer rail profiles via vertical, triple layered composite foam beams. The PFS design enables the outer rail profiles to flex and compress at a different rate to that of the more rigid central core. This allows the softer rails to contort in the wave face for optimum edge control, while the central core maintains a more streamlined profile for maximum board speed.

Bodyboard King Rider & Two time world champion Ben Player brings you his signature range for 2012/13. A man who has excelled in the competition scene is also recognised as one of the best free-surfers in the world, affirmed by his number high placing in both Riptide's Peer and Readers Polls and the IBA World tour rankings.

BP worked with NMD Shaper Nick Mezritz to develop the new NMD Parabolic Core.
BP is a living legend. With his fast, spontaneous, stylish surfing. He can pull any move at will. Just as deadly in the competition arena as freesurfing. BP surfing has no weak points, nor does his 2012/13 Model.
You can be sure you're riding world champion stock when you pick up an NMD BP.

This is what Ben has to say about his model:

"In surfing I am constantly trying to refine my surfing. Every wave I catch and every section that I hit has been an opportunity for betterment. My 2012/13 range of NMD boards is a representation of this with 24 years of refinement I have made the template that I think is the best that can be made. It's straight so it's easy to gain and maintain speed and the cores are second to none for any condition. These two factors combine to give you a versatile and elite wave riding vehicle that I am proud to put my name to."

JARED'S SURF STATION SUMMARY:

"One of the most awaited bodyboards of the past year. The new 2013 NMD/VS Parabolic bodyboards are guaranteed to give you the smoothest, most natural ride of any board on the market today. These boards come with bull grips, React Mesh Layer between the core and slick for enhanced stiffness and recoil, and a Surlyn slick for better projection. They all are made with an XFL Crosslink Foam Layer, along with Buzz-Tech Lamination which uses high heat to fuse the outer skins to the core, giving the board premium seam strength, impact protection, and optimum board recoil. Put all these together with a Parabolic Flex System core, and you have a board that is just waiting to show you the most comfortable, and controlled ride you will have ever experienced! So check out these new boards from NMD and VS, and you will NOT be disappointed!"
