CLASSIC FUNBOARD DESIGN WITH CENTRE FIN

This shape is designed to let newcomers feel their first planing sensation as early as possible in order get them hooked to the sport instantly!

It offers a huge range of use and is the ideal platform for the whole family and friends for their first steps on a windsurf board. On the other hand, its exciting planing potential is a real treat for experienced freeriders.

 

The length in combination with the parallel outline and the even volume distribution offer stability and outstanding qualities for passive early planing. Novices to planing will find it super easy to get going!

 

The board covers all kinds of windsurfing levels with its various foot strap plug options.

 

The Powerbox centre fin is one of the key features of this board: Working like a dagger board it helps to stay and go upwind for everybody who needs or wants it. The advantage is the low weight compared to a traditional dagger board case. When not needed the fin is replaced with a cover for smooth water flow and the experienced rider can enjoy the feel and low weight of a normal freeride design!

 

The deck along the centre is shaped rather flat for maximum stability when not planing. Once moving to a more outboard riding position the ergonomic rail design offers a comfortable stance for an exciting ride. The pronounced V shape, especially in the front enhances the comfort and provides a smoother ride.

 

Gybing is the other key experience to windsurfing. The forgiving character provided by the wide tail and soft tuck line will help you to master planing manoeuvres.

 

COMPARISON with other freeride boards:

The noticeable differences compared to our wider freeride boards of similar volume and range are its length and width: They provide a very different feel and a performance which benefits beginners. Non-planing, the long and narrow hull will stay on track. Sailing in a straight line is easier, while the noses of short, wide boards have a stronger tendency to turn into the wind. As a consequence, less experienced riders will find it more comfortable to get planing thanks to the board’s length. Once planing, the narrow hull will feel less bouncy and not too powerful, yet still quick and easy to control.
