hat wer w nd fo sta Three decades of Windsurfing history. One of the most iconic brands in the sport. Fanatic boards continue to define cutting-edge Windsurfing like no other brand on the planet. With our World Champion level athletes constantly testing and tuning our in-house prototypes, developed on the test-winning CAD design platform, evolution is constant. All this is done in the scope of our ecologically-aware mindset, dedicated to cleaner, better ways to make new boards and remain »Ocean Minded«.

green stay Great for Nature, Great to Ride While reducing ecological impacts and using ethically sourced raw materials was a primary goal, we’ve also made major advances in construction that bring significant performance benefits. In 2014 we’ll continue to use Innegra instead of Kevlar for ultra-stiff, impact resistant and lighter layups and maintain our use of recyclable Basalt and Bamboo, and aerospace-proven Cork.

Coming off a successful year with our 2013 Wave line up, Fanatic now offers even more choice to perfectly tune into the ride you want – with one, three or four fins. Brand new shapes for the 76, 82, and 89 sized Quads, plus completely new TriWaves and FreeWaves. Both the TriWave and the Quad feature a wider outline, a flatter deck shape and a refined bottom-shape that make them easier and increase their performance at the same time. The flagship FreeWave board features...

Styled Stay Free Your Ride In our Freestyle lineup, the new Skate TE – built on the board that won Gollito 5 Freestyle World Championships – has been further tuned and tweaked to offer incredible Freestyle performance. Power and pop are the name of the game for this contest-dominating rip stick – whether you’re a PWA pro, or just dialing in your first Freestyle moves. We’ve even added an extra size for lighter riders, the Skate 85.

To play in the ocean, we have to take care of it. That’s why every Fanatic board proudly displays the Fanatic Ocean Minded logo. It’s our promise to build our boards with a cleaner, greener environment in mind. In 2013, we became one of the few brands to use ecologicallyfriendly cork in our boards and will continue to do so in 2014. While much of the boardbuilding industry still relies on toxic, harmful processes to build boards, Fanatic does everything it can to offset our carbon footprint. We’re also using ethically-sourced and sustainable raw materials whenever possible – for both the health...
