Shinn Absinthe Prismatic Kiteboard 2023
IN A NUTSHELL...
New for 2023 the Shinn Absinthe sets a new level for high-end performance to freeride boards.
Design details
Please note board is priced deck only - no fins, handle or pads - please order these separately.
Engineered from the core outwards every element from the light paulownia wood blank to the high modulus spread-tow carbon laminate has been selected for optimum weight and performance relevant to real world conditions. This is more than a cosmetic update, this is a fundamentally new approach to the same goal of maximizing performance and comfort whilst minimizing weight.
Building on the shaping lessons learned through the development of the Slicer Split TT we combined the Double Step tip channels with the all new Dual-Track base to create an unrestricted water flow throughout the board’s length. Supremely fast to “unstick” in light winds and knife like upwind ability don’t detract from what is undoubtedly the plushest and most engaging ride in the whole Prismatic range.
With the ability to adapt to your riding, mood, or simply the conditions on hand the Absinthe redefines our high standards for lightweight performance, comfort, and control.
