PARK PERFORMANCE ROCKER LINE

Park optimized rocker line that is a little flatter through the midsection for speed and glide, progressing to more curve towards the tips, amplifying ollies and presses

Advertisement

3-STAGE ROCKER

This rocker line is generally flatter between the bindings but dramatically angles upward towards the tip and tail. This explosive rocker line generates a more aggressive and vertical pop off the wake.

PROGRESSIVE ROCKER

Similar to our Continuous Rocker but with more kicked up tip and tail, resulting in more vertical pop than a Continuous Rocker and more predictability than a 3-Stage.

CONTINUOUS ROCKER

With an even curve from tip to tail, this balanced rocker line is extremely consistent, easy to control, and rolls up the wake for a smooth predictable pop.

ABRUPT TRANSITIONAL FLEX

Medium flex pattern between bindings that softens significantly towards the tip and tail; enhances the board’s snappy, fun performance on the water and rails while delivering a solid platform for hitting kickers

SOFT TRANSITIONAL FLEX

Medium/Soft flex through the belly of the board smoothly tapers to our softest tip and tail flex; enhances the board’s fun, buttery ride and effortless pressing

VECTOR NET

Provides a high level of break and buckle resistance while maintaining a natural and lively flex pattern.

IMPACT BASE

Fully sintered high-density polyethylene base material that holds up to seasons of shredding rails, kickers, ledges, and whatever else you muster up.

FEATHER CORE

Feather Core reduces the board’s swing weight for more midair control, while simultaneously maintaining its profile up the face of the wake for maximum pop.

WOOD CORE

Paulownia wood core for minimum weight, maximum durability, and an organic feel. Our wood core ensures your board will withstand seasons of shredding.

DURARAIL SIDEWALLS

Impact resistant urethane rail that runs around the entire edge of the board; protecting the core from any hazard you throw its way.

Powered By The Sun

BUILT FOR KIDS

Durable board that is appropriately sized for kids making it easy to ride behind the boat and at the cable park.

DUAL HYBRID RAIL CONSTRUCTION

Blends park and boat board characteristics for a stable platform under your feet and a durable, snappy tip and tail.

CENTER SPINE

The V shape of the spine disperses water outwards upon impact resulting in softer landings.

VARIABLE BEVELED EDGE

Rolled edges for a smoother, catch-free ride, sharpening at the tip and tail for more bite.

GRAB RAIL

Channeling on top of the board that makes it easier to lock onto grabs; also makes the board easier to carry

DELTA BASE TECHNOLOGY

“Chevron” shaped channels molded into the tip and tail of the board reduces drag for faster edging and a cleaner release off the wake.

CATCH FREE EDGE

Have fun buttering around the park and never get hung up on your favorite features.

PULLED-IN TIPS

Allows the board to transition faster edge-to-edge

TRIPLE CONCAVE TO CUPPED CENTER CHANNEL

Provides the effect of dual spines running through the board; dispersing some water out the sides but holding some in the center channel to keep the board from punching in on landings

FOUR MOLDED-IN FINS

4 molded-in fins provide the perfect amount of hold on the water.

FOUR REMOVABLE FINS

Have the freedom to truly customize your board's performance on the water

REMOVABLE CENTER FINS

Additional tracking for riders who want more control on the water.

BOARD: D.Z. 152

STANCE WIDTH: 20"

With his unique approach to park riding, we knew that some modifications to the S.O.B needed to be made for Dary to ride at his full potential. Based off the S.O.B feel that we all know and love, the DZ almost feels like a continuation of the line but with a softer, flexier feel that enhances its playfulness and is insane for pressing and buttering around the park. Even though it is soft, the DZ is as strong as they come. Its all-wood core elevates the board’s durability ensuring that it will hold up to big transfers and heavy kicker landings. To top it off, the DZ features a lifted, Catch Free edge for a loose, relaxed ride that is incredibly forgiving on the water and minimizes the chance of getting hung up on your favorite park feature.

It is a true allaround board that every rider can appreciate… even boat riders.

The Intent is the epitome of a performance boat board. It's fast, insanely responsive, has the explosiveness of a rocket-ship, and lands softer than an astronaut doing jumping jacks on the moon. While riding flat, it's loose and lively but put it on edge, and a mind-warping connection between you and the board builds as it morphs into an all-out wake charging machine. From this feeling on the water to the explosiveness off the wake, the Intent is in a league of its own, capable of elevating everyone's perception of what's possible on a board.
