Skater
Freestyle/Wave
Sizes: 5’0″, 5’2″, 5’4″
“Early planing and stability, this board holds its line while going upwind through the chop and comes alive when carving with energetic turning.” – Tom Moore / The Kiteboarder
Superior in a range of conditions, the Skater is versatile, playful, and the right board for riders transitioning from a twin tip to a surfboard. Featuring a bamboo laminate, a strapless impact resistance heel, and rail patch, and 3 mm PVC stance area reinforcement, the Skater is extremely durable, minimizing pressure dents. If you are in search of a board that makes it easier to ride in strong winds, load the rail in choppy conditions, and control while sending strapless airs, the Skater is the best choice for you.
