A MINIMALIST SKIM STYLE SHAPE WITH THE LEAST AMOUNT OF SWING WEIGHT.

Swing weight is a thing of the past with our thinnest profile, lightweight performer. With a minimalist skim style shape, thickness and construction, this thinned-out version of the High Voltage Beaux Board, is for the rider that wants a lighter board, but also a board that will sit deeper in the water. Because it isn’t as buoyant you get more contact with the water and can ride with a smaller fin or even no fin at all making it easier to break free for shuvit style tricks. This shape comes with tail rocker for more control while in the forward position and is less likely to dunk the nose riding switch. Less weight equals added rotation on your tricks, and the thinner profile sits even deeper for more natural board control. A high-end skimmer complementing the wide profile Blunt Nose Skimmer, and the stiffer carbon models. We believe inflation sucks - so we lowered the price of this board by $100 for this year.  A board the competitive surfer looking for a less expensive high-end skimmer.

SKIMMER

A fast, responsive style of board where the rider’s position is centered with a more balanced body. These sharp rail, thin profiled boards react quicker for people that don’t have a lot of time to waste. Preferred by surfers that like to have more feel with their board itself – and not just on fins. They can break free easier for 360’s on the water or shuvits off it. A more forgiving style of board when riding behind a steep wake because you typically ride this style of board at a shorter length (making it less likely to dunk the nose). Because of how speedy these models are – you can get away with a shorter, lightweight length.

HYBRID

For riders that like a little bit of everything. They want to generate power through their bottom turns, but still be able to leave the waterline quickly and easily. A growing style of wakesurfing designed for bigger airs leaving the wake but can still lock in for a proper cutback.

SURF

Toss some buckets with some smooth, linked turns inspired by your favorite saltwater surfer. Traditional surf shapes have a thicker profile and a mellower rail/bevel allowing a rider to pivot a turn more from their back foot and are best ridden with either a deeper fin, or multiple fins. Riders usually apply more pressure on the back half of the board and generate more force through a turn. Still very capable of doing tricks on and off the water – just with a fluid like feel.

Fin-S

FIN SETUP

1. Line up fins in the fin box.
2. With even pressure, push fin down into the fin box

FIN REMOVAL

1. Push fin towards the nose of the board to release the spring locking mechanism.
2. While pushing fin forward, angle the fin up and pull to take the fin out.
