THE WIDE RIDE WITH REAL GLIDE
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
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.

BLUE CARBON
LIGHTWEIGHT, 2x FULL CARBON, STRONG AND DURABLE10 x CLIMATE POSITIVEExtensive cost engineering, refining the layups and multiple tests has led to the 2022 Blue Carbon construction.
The Blue Carbon construction is the result of years learning how to produce the lightest and strongest constructions in both SUP & Windsurf, and refining that to come up with a new technology that delivers performance at the best value we have ever introduced in the market.
ULTRA LIGHTWEIGHT BIAXIAL CARBONTop grade 150g Biaxial Carbon wraps the entire board, joining with an overlap on the deck and bottom to create at stringer, increasing the total breakage strength. The 45-degree woven fibre brings an ultra-crisp and responsive flex and creates the skeleton structure to strengthen the entire board.
