  • Cork dampening

  • Inline strap

  • 5 fins

  • Bamboo sandwich

Comp

  • Futurelite technology

    Carbon and Innegra Futurelite wireframe forms a structural skeleton to support the laminates, maximising strength without losing flex, and allowing the board to load and release power on demand for more drive and responsiveness.

  • FCSII premium fin box

    New lighter weight premium fin box allows for 9-degree rake. Compatible with both FCSI and click-in keyless FCSII fins for more speed & drive, quicker acceleration, and more response from your board. High-density foam reinforcements surrounding the FCSII fin box are shaped to match the curved template of the finbox for a clean bond and smoother load transfer into the board. Fin boxes, leash plug and foot strap inserts are structurally integrated, locking into the laminate with the Futurelite carbon innegra system to give extra reinforcement and flex-tuning.

  • DualShock EVA inserts

    With a NEW stronger fibreglass layup under the main impact areas adds more durability and helps reduce denting around your heel. Our solution to reduce over-engineering, keeping the boards lightweight while retaining required flex.

  • Woven carbon tail reinforcement

    Spreads the load under the kickpad and gives impact resistance and torsional stiffness under the rear foot.

  • No-Slip deck grip with toe bump and rear wedge kicker

    Micro-corduroy textured EVA deckpad with intuitive front toe bump and rear wedge kick for maximum traction and control.

  • Bevelled release rails

    Allow the board to load and release from the water on demand. The bevelled rail profile reduces the suction effect of a round rail so water can shed off the rail and not wrap onto the deck. This allows the board to release off the water faster when loading and popping.

  • NEW VectorNET impact resistant grabbable rails

    New VectorNET carbon fiber diamond weave adds rail impact resistance while maintaining flex. Grabbable rail profiles on the top deck enable easy handling in the air and on the beach.

  • NEW tail channels

    Tail channels for grip, response and cushioned landings with less bounce on touchdown

  • NEW narrower outline

    The compact directional parallel outline is a minimal size with hard, sharp rails to allow for speed and edge control in a range of conditions. The outline has been pulled in slightly at the nose and tail for 2021, adding control and increasing top-end performance, while the lower volume tail allows more sink and pop for freestyle in flatter water.

  • NEW increased rocker line

    The rocker is smoothed into a clean curve nose to tail, helping the board to stick to your feet during strapless tricks
