Hyperlite Vagabond 2019 Wakeboard
IN A NUTSHELL...
The 2019 Hyperlite Vagabond kiteboard was shaped by Trever Maur. Trever demanded a deck that would carve freely helping him link tricks and dig deep while slashing the wake, so hello Continuous Rocker. He also likes to build his edge gradually as he nears the wake, and the Vagabond caters for this!
Design details
- Intermediate/advanced
- Mid flex
- Boat
The Vagabond is the first board to feature Fell Length Curved Flow Channels (CFC). The CFC's pull the board's primary edge deeper into the water on approach to the wake maximising a rider's pop. Between the inserts the Vagabond's rail is shaped with a 8 degree bevel for forgiveness on wakes and on rails but near the board's tip and tail the rail shape sharpens increasing edge hold. Exiting the Vagabond is a single Concave Gate adding a bit of boost to the board's pop and optimising tracking.
Sizes: 138 / 142cm
FEATURES:
CarboNetX
CarboNetX is Hyperlite's most innovative construction feature, adding to the ultimate technically packed boards in the industry. Diagonal woven carbon fibers allow the board to store and release energy consistently throughout the ride. Our crisscrossed fibres act like springs and tension cables delivering a responsive feel and added durability while accounting for less than 1% of the boards overall weight.
Biolite 3 Core
The secret recipe we have been perfecting since day one. This core material is the gold standard in the industry and used throughout our line. Bio 3 is our lightest and most durable formula to date.
Monocoque Construction
Integrating the top glass and the bottom glass into one. Generating a more durable board on side impacts to prevent delamination.
Layered Glass
Our fibreglass is available in 3 weights depending on the board. Over time, traditional woven glass fibres will separate. With layered glass every Hyperlite deck will have the same pop off the double up year after year.
Continuous Rocker
The rocker line that started it all. Speed and fluid predictable pop truly define this rocker. Designed to carry great speed into the wake with minimal drag, a Continuous rocker generates a longer trajectory with similar pop every time.
