Hi Swe 171
Final sizes will be announced soon, but we will cover a windrange from 10-50+ knots. The emphasis will be on control and high endspeed, but we also will focus on early and easy planing.
The speedboard is ready to go and measures 46×230. It planes real early for a speedboard, has got a high volume for it’s size and is super easy to control in super high winds. Needless to say it’s also blistering fast, but obviously everyone who would start up a brand would say the same 🙂

Sorry for not writing Swedish, but indeed the board is a step hull board. I won’t inform you just now on exact specifications but I can say it’s the easiest to sail speedboard you have ever seen. The board rocks. we’re now working hard on medium and light wind boards and production will start soon. If you got questions you can also contat Mattias as Ron, Mattias and I have been setting up this new brand whih for sure will completely change the diretion the windsurfing industry will be heaing the coming years. Just like the slingshot this design is aimed at widening the range of use and make it easier for normal (read not super heavy, big, strong) PWA riders, to go blistering fast. On top of this the boards also gybe like a dream with tons of grip in the corner.
I have been thinking this over for many years, tried to get the big brands interested in my ideas. They did not listen and then I felt it wasx enough. Mattias came up with a great idea, we met in Tershelling last year, I contacted Ron again and together with my test mates Serge Beumer and Marcel Braas we started working on the new concept.
First results a positive so it’s time to show the first pics to the windsurfing World. Since Mattias made it possible for us to come up with production models he is the one to post the first pics.
