Tech specs
HOT SHEET 10K CARBON STRINGER
The stiffest carbon stringer in any board we make results in maximum rebound and pop for superior freestyle and big-air capabilities.
ATOMIC WOOD CORE
Lengthwise carbon stringers, top and bottom, provide strength and stiffness.
CARBON BEDROCK INSERTS
Light, flexible and durable inserts that maintain the board’s flex underfoot for a consistent feel from tip to tail.
CHINED PLANE RAILS
Designed to completely redirect spray away and down, these belly channels reduce the area of contact between the board and the surface of the water. The chined rails also help prevent catching an edge on fast and sketchy landings.
SINGLESHOT FUSION SIDEWALL
We’ve transferred the same technology found in high durometer urethane skateboard wheels into the rail of all our boards. Our innovative manufacturing process literally infuses the rail into the board cores in one single shot, producing unrivaled dampening and durability.
PRECISION LASER CUT CHANNELS
By utilizing the latest in laser-cutting technology, all of our boards feature the cleanest, most precise construction. What this laser tech means to you as a rider is boards that have consistently cleaner takeoffs, smoother landings, better response, tons of grip, load-and-pop, and upwind drive.
DURA LIGHT BASE
This .2mm base material is the ideal strength to weight ratio. Lightweight performance in a strong and durable package.
CONTINUOUS ROCKER
A smooth, consistent curve provides a fast ride, predictable pop, great carving performance and disperses water to soften landings.
