How many days have you gone to the beach and the wind, waves or both were not quite as you expected? Are you new to the water and want a fun board for a variety of conditions? Well, the BIC Jungle provides the answer with GUARANTEED water time for the whole family! From no wind and no waves, through to medium winds and waves... you can get out on the water and have fun no matter what! And you don't have to just windsurf, with our Bic Jungle you can turn to surfing, stand-up paddling and kayaking! Having evolved from the design base of the latest stand-up paddle boards, which need to both glide well and surfin the waves, BIC Sport has drawn on its wealth of experience in windsurfing, surfing and kayaks to produce the BIC Jungle. Shaped by the renowned windsurf custom shaper Sergio Munari, in co-operation with the legendary surf shaper Gerard Dabbadie, the BIC Jungle is the ultimate FUN board for all conditions!
The BIC Jungle, for everyone, everywhere!!
Key Features of the Bic Jungle Paddleboard:
Surf:
Volume and stability > Easy to catch and stand-up in small to moderate waves = typical summer conditions. Ever tried tandem surfi ng with your kids? It will hook them right away as they start to surf immediately!
Specific rocker line for surf : strong kick in the tail, lift at the nose > Good surfing performance and manoeuvrability on the wave considering the size of the board.
Rail bevels in the nose > Make it easy to turn and surf the wave.
Relatively narrow width > Easy paddling
Thin and smooth pads > Comfort while paddling and a responsive feel.
Rear leash plug position > Rear positioned leash plug lessens the drag of the board when being washed in the waves.
Extra accessories required > Just a longboard leash!
Windsurf:
Volume and stability > Ease of uphauling while learning to windsurf.
"Saber" style daggerboard > Directional stability and upwind sailing = you can get back to where you started. “Saber” style greatly improves the board's weight, and allows you to completely remove the daggerboard for better surfi ng.
Long length / narrow width > Glide in light, sub-planing wind conditions. Great for cruising!
Specific rocker line for windsurf: flat mid-section > For glide and planing performance.
Rail bevels in the nose > Easy gybes and manoeuvrability on the wave.
Lightwind wavesailing > As a surf / windsurf hybrid, this board makes a great waveboard for lightwind conditions. If you need footstraps, use the front footstraps only as your back foot is used to turn the board.
Freeriding > For flatwater cruising, use the outer positioned “freeride” footstrap inserts as the wind starts to pick-up.
Extra accessories required > BIC Nova / Cruiser rig for learners, BIC Speedster for freeriding, or your own wave rig for lightwind wavesailing in 5-15 knots.
Paddle:
Volume and stability > Ease of balance while paddling either for stand-up surfi ng in the waves, or in Kayak mode.
Specific rocker line for stand-up / kayak > Combining the surf and windsurf features, you have the best compromise in one board for fun stand-up wave surfi ng, and flatwater long distance cruising either in stand-up or kayak.
Jungle nose cut-out > Gives you an additional point for securing the paddle when being washed in the waves.
Rear leash plug position > Rear positioned leash plug lessens the drag of the board when being washed in the waves.
Kayak Inserts > Allow you to attach a BIC Kayak seat for long-distance cruising.
Rear footstraps > Together with a roof rack strap, can be used to attach a waterproof bag for long distance adventures.
Extra accessories required > Paddles for either stand-up or kayak. Kayak seat.
