HAWK

After a few years of study and preparation, the Landboard brand creates its first SUP Race board: the Hawk. And it surprised me from the first moment I saw it for its design, shape and colour! As soon as I had it in my hands, I knew that in the water it would be a board to enjoy from the first stroke... and so it was. We are talking about a 14” x 23” board with 289 litres, excellent measurements for all SUPers of this Stand Up Paddle modality.

The Hawk has great flowability and comfort as soon as you start it up in the water. It has a very good speed reaction in a straight line, maintaining an excellent paddling rhythm. Both upwind and sidewind, this board correctly maintains its stability and offers you the security to paddle with peace of mind in practically all types of conditions

As for the action in the turns, the Hawk reacts quickly as soon as we position our body and paddle for said movement. She may even react a lot in advance and be a little inaccurate due to the lack of surface in some areas of the tail. But we remember, this board is a first model and this is one of the few improvements that it needs for its next evolution. And if there is something that we must highlight it´s the hardness and the quality of the material. It is not a board that is easily scratched or damaged, Lander has used top quality material and that is appreciated by those who may be less careful with the material.

In addition, the pad and the handles are also of the highest quality, ensuring a total grip for your feet and absolute comfort when moving the board. The Hawk is also very reliable in the open sea, adapting perfectly to bumps and riding waves very well. Without a doubt, it is a great board and it is generating great feedback among all the SUPers who are trying it. A great job by Lander will open the doors to many more models of SUP Race boards from this great brand.
