Fanatic Strike Carbon SUP Board 2020

SIZES: 14" x 21.5" /14" x 25"

FLATWATER RACE

The Strike is our out-and-out speed machine, designed with only one purpose in mind: putting you on the top of the podium. The Strike is based on the boards that helped Arthur Arutkin become 2018 APP World Champion. The sleek, efficient design is quite simply the fastest board you can paddle on flat water.

This is achieved by combining generous nose volume & a narrow race outline, with a unique bottom shape – double concave up front blending to deep mono concave – which delivers smooth efficient gliding, tracking and stability. Subtle volume distribution and the recessed deck keeps the rider low, while the wider tail profile further boosts stability and ensures performance in chop and messy water conditions in experienced hands.

FEATURES

Forward raked nose increases the effective waterline length and results in improved paddling efficiency

INCREASED VOLUME
Increased volume in the nose and tail area reduce pitching and keep the board flat when sprinting, and ensures nose rides high for speed and control

PIGMENTED RESIN
Pigmented resin prevents paint scratches

RECESSED DECK
Recessed deck keeps the riders weight low and improves stability

TUCK
Tuck in the tail area boosts steering and manoeuvrability

HANDLE OPTIONS
Three carrying handle options for all eventualities and preferences

LEASH OPTIONS

SIDE WALLS
High side walls stop water collecting whilst paddling

TWO SIZES
Offered in two sizes, 21.5” & 25” wide. The 21.5” is the go-to race board for the super competitive, & the 25” is the first choice for riders over 85kg or for all-round racing on flatwater, combined with a few open ocean races
