fast as a rocket rocket 07 The Performance light wind freeride board OUTLINE DECK RAILS Matt Pritchard Rocket 115 with Gaastra Swift Last years magazine test winners were difcult to improve. We decided to take what we have learned from the Manta’s and apply it to these bigger freeriders.

Also the step has increased for more forgiveness when sliding backwards. A faster rocker line has been given to each of these boards for quicker acceleration. “Octopuss” textured...
