ACE HYBRID

• Hybrid Core

  Honeycomb foam/paulownia hybrid construction resulting in an optimized strength to weight ratio.

• Carbon Fiber

  Customized double 45 degree bias Carbon Fiber is a lightweight and durable laminate that maximizes performance by stiffening the flex pattern for increased response and explosive pop.

• ABS Rails

  ABS is a tough hard wearing composite material which bonds very well to epoxy. This is used during the lay-up process ensuring a smooth, durable and consistent ride. All twin tip rails and insert blocks are made from ABS material.

• Moderate Flex

  The Riders that like to have fun doing a little of everything will want a moderate or medium flex that allows for easier landings, buttery turns, and more forgiveness in all kinds of conditions. Found on the Ace Wood and Xcal wood.

• Medium Rocker

  Medium rocker boards find the perfect balance between high rocker high performance and flat light wind rockers making the boards great all around boards with lengthened turning radius. Found on the Ace Carbon, Ace Wood, XO and Spectrum.

• Quad Channels

  Strategically placed channels in tip of the board provide traction when riding and when loading for big air. These channels also provide absorption when riding through chop and during heavy landings.

• H20 Recommended

  While this board can be used with any of the Cabrinha bindings, we recommend the H20 Binding to be the best pairing with this board.

• Rails Channels

  Channels on the outside rails of the board to help with traction and grip when riding on edge, and to also aid with pop for freestyle tricks.

• Single Concave

  A single concave that runs through the board, providing excellent grip but also a smooth ride.

Select

• Space Flex Technology

  Space Flex adapts to the water´s surface and enhances all turning characteristics.

• Grab Rails

  Grab Rails for easier board off manoeuvres and comfortable general riding.

• Torsion Flex

  The special shape of the 3D cap allows torsion of the long axis of the board. This gives them more grip on the heel-side edge, rich and smooth landings, a direct drive and better upwind performance. Invented by Duotone.

• Soft Flex

  Soft Flex boards are the most friendly and “easy to use” boards in our range. The Soft Flex option is forgiving and simply fun to ride, even if you are an unexperienced rider. However, the Soft Flex option is also suitable for more lightweight riders.

• Premium Construction

  The Premium Construction boards Jaime, Select and Soleil feature Carbon Beams, where parts of the glass fibre are being replaced by unidirectional carbon beams to noticeably improve the boards’ performance. This results in a faster and even more progressive flex for better pop and reduced weight.

• Step Mono Concave

  The Step Mono Concave is the fastest and easiest to ride bottom concepts. It can be carved easily through turns and always delivers the right grip. It planes early, allows smaller fins and helps to go upwind with ease.
