//traditional waveMany top riders still favor directional single fin designs in a broad span of conditions. Fanatic have made a few changes to last years model. They have widened the scope of turning angles without losing speed or sensation. Aggressive use from down-the-line perfection to blown-out storm waves demands a vast scale of feel and control. The three smallest models now come in 69, 76 and 83 litre sizes.
These all-new shapes are shorter and wider with fuller and softer rails for tighter turns and extreme, dependable grip. They have also added tail rocker and tuned the double concaves to maintain speed through any lines you choose to draw. The NewWave 91, is the hardcore machine for heavier rippers and light wind addicts, rounds-up the line with an unchanged shape.
All of the 2010 NewWaves are available in high-end Team Edition versions too. This full Carbon Kevlar deck and Carbon bottom lay up both axes weight and dramatically increases stiffness and performance.
- Shorter, wider compact outline
- Fuller, softer rails forward of outline center featuring softer, tucked-under edge
- Tuned double concave bottom shape for speed and carving momentum
- Amplified tail rocker for tighter, faster turns
- Even volume distribution for control in both light and powered conditions
Team Edition
The lightest and most impact resistant Carbon Kevlar, combined with a double PVC /Wood Sandwich and Wood/Carbon Heel Reinforcements guarantees the most efficient construction in terms of light weight with maximum impact resistance. The Team Editions of NewWave, NewWave Twin and FreeWave benefit from a double sandwich deck with Carbon Kevlar layups, plus Carbon bottom layups. The Skate Team Edition has a single sandwich deck of Carbon Kevlar and a Carbon bottom. All of these models are produced with the Light Finish sanded look, for extra weight savings.
Klaas Voget, 6th Overall 2008 PWA Wave Tour & Fanatic’s Wave R&D Manager:
“In a contest, I can’t afford to concentrate on my gear. All my focus goes on watching the wave and how it’s going to break. The 2010 NewWaves are exactly the boards I used last season in the toughest conditions possible. From Hawaii to the North Sea, there’s nothing better for high performance wavesailing.”
