Here at Tabou we are always looking forward, trying new ideas and designs. The most important thing for the brand is to keep rising the bar higher and higher. Providing our team and the public with products that we are proud of, and that they will enjoy on the water. Fabien and the R&D team continue their year round quest for perfection. Never settling for half measures when delivering new products. If they are not completely happy with a finished design then it will simply not appear in our production range. What we guarantee is when you set foot on one of our new shapes, we want you to know that you are riding what we consider to be the most technologically advanced board you can get your feet on! This is what prides Fabien Vollenweider to create these masterpieces that make up theTabou range of boards.

“I am always looking for ways to improve my shapes. I am a perfectionist and do not stop until I get what I want out of a board,” says Fabien. We don’t just change a board because a new year is coming. We change a board when we have learned that something can be improved. Our shapes evolve over a two year process. “The team gives me a constant challenge - we spent countless hours chasing the goal of not only winning, but developing boards that are user friendly and put a smile on the rider’s face at the end of the session!” comments Vollenweider. The passion that comes from our latest shapes is shown in every detail. From assembling your board right out of the wrapper to your first jibe or forward loop, we are with you and want to share in your stoke! We invite you to join our tribe, a group of motivated warriors chasing the wind, searching for waves and most importantly enjoying our beautiful sport. See you on the water! Merci, Fabien Vollenweider
