Fantic FreeWave 2010

//one board option

The FreeWave’s shaken-up a test-winning cocktail of freestyle, fun wave and flat water blasting worldwide. As one of the most versatile and best-selling shapes, the challenge was to stretch the range of this multi-purpose style. To advance usability they improved the wave performance in the smaller sizes and boosted early planing, blasting and freestyle capabilities in the bigger models. The 2010 FreeWave line comes in five sizes - 75, 85, 95, 105 and 115.
The FreeWave 75 comes with a US-Box, to reflect it’s wavier orientation. The bigger sizes feature the Powerbox - the established standard for freestyle, freewave and freeride hulls.
All models are available in:

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. Custom wood Sandwich Using a lightweight yet robust wood and glass fibre construction gives a very high strength to weight ratio. In combination with the Double PVC/ Wood Sandwich, this is an extremely durable lay up, the thick sandwich, wood and glass fibre absorbing high forces, even after the hardest landings! Used on the standard FreeWave models.

G10 fin with either euro or power box depending on size of board.

Fanatic’s CAD Master Shaper Sebastian Wenzel on one of his favourite styles. “After assessing this style I gave a lot of attention to creating more compact outlines with fuller V, tucked-under rails and rounder nose shapes for smoothness, control and early planing. Using my CAD engineering system I’ve enhanced the rocker line that now features a higher entry point, a short flat section and a little extra tail kick to advance the FreeWave’s scale of use.”
