By trading thickness for extra length, these MIDLENGTH CARBON boards offer great balance and glide in light winds. The improved volume distribution, especially in the nose, provides greater stability, while the more rounded bottom at the front enhances glide, hence leading to smoother take-offs and touchdowns.
Thanks to a slightly wider tail, stability is preserved while the slim outline and parallel rails promote glide and speed during take-off. The step on the bottom near the tail creates a clean break to channel the water flow at the back without generating excessive drag when in motion. The removal of the central step on the bottom, previously in front of the twin-tracks, makes the board compatible with Foil Drives.
The MIDLENGTH CARBON continues to shine in light winds, but many riders will appreciate it in a variety of conditions as these boards don’t feel cumbersome thanks to their narrow width. The reduced width also makes it much easier to carve and lay into turns. These can also be used as SUPs as well by advanced riders looking for agile shapes in waves or short period downwinders.
This model is available in HD Foam Carbon Composite, a very light and stiff construction that enhances maneuverability and delivers an even more direct foil feel. More reactive when pumping, the carbon version does nonetheless share the same shape and program as the bamboo.
Super accessible, the ROCKET WING MIDLENGTH CARBON is a top pick for riders who want to make the most out of light wind conditions.
