JP Super Light Wind FWS Windsurf Board 2015

FULL WOOD SANDWICH Technology

PLANE WHILE OTHERS SIT AROUND

First introduced in 2010, the name ‘Super Lightwind’ stands for a unique concept. We wanted to cover the light wind segment by offering a user-friendly board with outstanding early planing performance.

This brand new board combines the two concepts that we offered in the past. One shape covers it all, maximum light wind planing ability, easy handling and an electrifying sensation of speed. All the knowledge from the latest Super Sport, Slalom and Formula development went into the design.

The dimensions 245cm x 91cm fit exactly in between the two previous models. The perfect length for great stability and neutral water position so you can get the board onto the plane without an active sailing style. The special volume distribution is also very important as it allows you to get planing with hardly any white caps in sight.

The outline is pulled-in towards the tail but rather parallel throughout the mid-section of the board maintaining the maximum planing surface around the mast base area. The rather narrow tail makes it easy to get your feet into the straps it also gives the board a very loose feel which makes you believe that you are riding and jibing a much smaller board.

For maximum control we copied the tail shape from the latest Slalom boards. It features a winger design, which makes the deck outline wider than the bottom outline. This allows the rider to have a more outboard stance producing lots of power in light winds and maximum control and comfort on long runs. The deck shape with its constant radius offers a comfortable and powerful stance in the outboard and inboard strap positions.

For the bottom shape we chose the most efficient concept where the ‘V flow’ increases constantly towards the tail which is the same as we use in our Slalom and Formula boards. This gives the rider the sensation of flying over the water’s surface and not the feeling of pushing the board through the water.
