Our team riders always ask for the impossible - looser boards, with more grip, smoother rides and more speed. We realized that those contradictive goals can’t be achieved with traditional concepts. We looked at what is happening in surfing and decided to go more radical than ever. The boards come with a double concave bottom with probably the deepest concaves 1 ever used on new age wave boards. The deepest part of the concaves has been moved right underneath the standing area. The deep concaves enabled Werner Gnigler to create a very long flat section under the straps. This makes the boards...

WAVE BOARDS FOR ALL CONDITIONS Robby Swift, Jules Denel and Leon Jamaer were curious how a 2014 Single Thruster would work with a Quad setup. When trying the first prototypes they were blown away. So we went ahead and put them into production. This and the additional outline curve between the straps make the boards faster and more maneuverable at the same time. Fast bottom turns or tight turns aiming for the pocket, they offer it all. The thin rails bite determinedly and maintain the grip during down-the-line carving bottom turns. In the thruster setup they are perfect for conditions where...

We were the first brand to introduce Freestyle Wave boards. Many brands followed. Then we launched the thruster setup for the smaller PRO Edition sizes (77, 85, 93, 102) and the others followed again. Some brands even copied the name and also call their boards “Freestyle Wave”. If you want the original you don‘t need to look anywhere else. Fast and fun boards to blast around. Easy to control in the air, but it‘s in maneuvers where they really stand out. They carve superbly whether you crank them hard or carve them smooth. SHAPE Short and compact with the center of gravity and the widest...

With Steven van Broeckhoven we probably have the most athletic, powerful freestyler on the PWA Tour, who has a very detailed knowledge about board shapes and design. Youp Schmit is a very different character who as well as being much lighter, is very stylish and a bit crazy! Steven couldn’t find anything to improve on the 106 which he uses as his board for really light conditions. So we left it unchanged and just spiced up the graphic design. But he has put a lot of work together with Werner Gnigler into our new 101 which will be his main board. Youp has worked with Werner on the new 92 and...

Sporty multipurpose boards between Freestyle Wave and Super Sport. They are easy planing, comfortable to ride and go really fast. Easy and forgiving medium wind jibing boards. They deliver an exciting, electric feeling when going fast. Plug and play windsurfing - jump on and have fun. This year we redesigned the 106, the size which covers it all. The old 106 was a very popular shape and it was very difficult to create an even more perfect all-rounder. We feel that we have achieved this objective with the 106 II. We kept the basic dimensions but used a more parallel outline in the midsection...

JUST MAGIC Thrilling and exciting extra wide, short and thin freeride boards. They feature unbelievable early planing with the easiest jibing possible. The main difference to boards from our competition is, that they really give you an electrifying feel which you normally only get from much smaller boards. Their early planing and top speed are also unmatched in their class. SHAPE Shaper Werner Gnigler took a lot of features from the Freestyle Wave boards. The thin rails in combination with the low overall thickness make them such outstanding easy jibers. They pretty much jibe by themselves....

SPORTY, EASY, X-CITING The name X-Cite Ride became a trademark for comfortable and sporty freeriding. Outstanding test reports have confirmed this. The X-Cite Ride PLUS range still follows this concept. With the introduction of the super easy Magic Ride boards we decided to slightly re-position the X-Cite Rides and make them even sportier. So the PLUS in the name stands for improved overall performance and for the fact that Generation 6 is sportier than ever whilst still being easy to handle. SHAPE They merge easy sailing with an exciting riding sensation, top performance and great...

BREATHTAKING SPEED AND POWER The Super Sports deliver slalom race-like performance but are way easier to ride and control. Great market feedback and lots of test wins have confirmed that. The line combines shape features from the X-Cite Ride and the Slalom boards to offer the best of both worlds. To make them seriously fast Werner Gnigler used his experience from the Slalom developments while the influence of his X-Cite Ride shapes make sure that the power of the Super Sports is easily accessible for every advanced rider. SHAPE The reduced overall length gives the boards a lively feel. The...

PLANE WHILE OTHERS SIT AROUND First introduced in 2010, the name ‘Super Lightwind’ stands for a unique concept. We wanted to cover the light wind segment by offering a user-friendly board with outstanding early planing performance. constantly towards the tail which is the same as we use in our Slalom and Formula boards. This gives the rider the sensation of flying over the water’s surface and not the feeling of pushing the board through the water. This brand new board combines the two concepts that we offered in the past. One shape covers it all, maximum light wind planing ability, easy...

For that daredevil inside you! There is nothing like the feeling of flying down a speed course totally maxed out and being right on the edge. This is what these boards are made for. They are designed and developed for those who have the guts to put the pedal to the metal and go for it. We developed 4 new sizes which are slightly wider and thinner compared to the proven 66 and 80 which stay unchanged. They now come in a 60, 69, 78, and 82 cm width. We widened the range of use. The new 69 is not limited to a sail around 7.6 it can easily handle a 8.4 as well. The new 60 can’t just handle...
