THE WIDE RIDE WITH REAL GLIDE
THIN RAILS ON WIDE BOARDS
- You will sense the trademark thin rails biting into the wave just like a smaller board and let you maneuver off the top and in bottom turns in ways not expected.The thin rails mean you need less e ort to turn on the rail, as there is less volume holding the board back from sinking into the turn.
SHORT NOSE OUTLINE
- Makes it easier to pivot turn and fit in the critical section of the wave without catching the nose.
FEATURES
NOSE KICK
- Prevents the nose from diving when getting into waves and paddling in choppy water.
FLAT ROCKER
- In the center provides efficient glide and speed on flats.
FLAT STANDING AREA
- Allows to have a wider stance for extra stability in chop.
MODERATE TAIL KICK
- Allows for tighter turning when standing back on the tail.
WIDE ROUNDED TAIL
- Improves stability when stepping on the board to turn. It also gives release out of turns.
MONO TO DOUBLE CONCAVE BOTTOM
- Provides speed to catch the wave and then has sensitive rail-to-rail turning from the midpoint.
CHANNEL TAIL
- Makes it easier to carry speed and hold through maneuverers.
SIDE FIN BOXES
- Are positioned closer to the rail for quicker response in turns. Minimal change yet a big improvement.
FIN SET UP
- Thruster fin set up provides comfortable straight-line tracking on flat and gives drive and control in surf.Pocket Rocket allows both thruster and quad set up. Quad fin set up uses 4 side fins and gives fast acceleration and instant down the line speed as it does not have a drag from the larger centre fin.
NEW SELF-VENTILATING VALVE
- A self-ventilating air valve is available on the board. This valve is self-ventilating so, it should not be touched or removed – otherwise, you are at risk of damaging the valve system.
