A NEW SOFT ALL OVER FLEX SERIES
Beauty In Simplicity. The goal of the pinpoint was to have a classic flex board. Soft from the tip through the mid section to the tail. Focusing on fun and the enjoyment of a park board that any rider can appreciate. The Pinpoint has a jovial rocker line which helps maintain consistent speed on approaches and ride aways. The channels are shorter and moved in further from the rail of the board to give you a buttery / playful feel on the water, but are there for you when you need to get on the pepper. For all you gibbers looking to hit handrails, pipes or just rounded features at your local park. The Pinpoint offers a concave in the nose and tail to help you lock in and add stability to those crucial moments on the rail. When it comes to flex the Pinpoint is the softest board we offer. Enjoy presses, softer landings and all the aspects of park riding that truly make it unique. Much like Jules Charraud who admits a simplistic beauty to his riding, the Pinpoint delivers the perfect blend of playfulness and performance to your park riding experience.

HOW MUCH DOES IT FLEX?
Some boards are more adaptive on the water and features with a softer flex pattern. Others feel more secure and stable but aren’t as adaptive on rails.
WHERE DOES IT FLEX?
Where the board flexes is personal preference that will come overtime. Most of our cable boards have a leverage point where a certain part of the board compresses until the fulcrum kicks in with snap back. The most common 4 flex patterns are…
VARIABLE FLEX
Made with vertical Paulownia stringers running tip to tail, the core tapers from the middle of the board to the ends, creating a variable flex that increases the yield in a press.
SPRINGBOX 2
In the tip/tail of the board, we have varying depths that will allow the board to bend easier and with more exaggeration. With Springbox those high points are made from extruded rods that give a rider more spring out of their press.
SPINE/TORSIONAL FLEX
Over several seasons we developed different styles of stringers acting as a spine for the board. Riders are looking for the energy to transfer from the tail and drive through the tip. They also want a board that will conform and adapt from side to side without sacrificing durability.
ALL OVER FLEX
For the rider that wants the whole board to bend - creating the most surface area on a rail - and knows the board won’t have a rigid fulcrum point that will help with the snap back.
