Buy now – Duotone Jaime Concept Blue 2026
The Jaime Concept Blue 2026 keeps the iconic Jaime DNA—explosive pop, locked-in edge grip and effortless upwind—while switching to a cleaner materials package. If you want a daily driver that boosts big, lands smooth and leaves your legs fresh for the next run, this is it.
Why riders pick the Jaime Concept Blue
Explosive, predictable pop
Loads fast and releases clean—great for hooked/unhooked tricks and confident big-air take-offs.
Locked-in edge grip
The Double Rockerline Concept and angled fins create serious traction when you put the board on rail.
Smoother landings
The Double Diffusor Bottom splits water on impact so you can ride away with speed and control.
Lower footprint
Concept Blue construction uses more eco-minded materials while keeping the lively Jaime feel intact.
How it rides
Freestyle / Big-Air
A hard-flex backbone gives the Jaime CB its signature snap off the water. You get height without the harshness, thanks to bottom contours and tip shaping that control spray and soften landings.
Chop & Upwind
The double concave/diffusor combo calms messy water and keeps speed. Upwind angles are easy to hold so you can set up for the next trick rather than fighting to stay upwind.
Tech explained
- Concept Blue layup: material mix (including natural/recycled content) aimed at reducing product footprint while keeping a lively response.
- Double Rockerline Concept: adds grip under load for secure edging and precise control at take-off.
- Double Diffusor Bottom: splits the water flow to cushion landings and maintain speed.
- Angled fins & tip channels: extra bite for carving and dependable tracking in strong wind.
- Hard Flex: explosive pop with controlled feedback—sporty but not punishing.
Pair it with a responsive big-air kite like the Rebel SLS 2026 or a versatile Dice SLS 2026.
