Flight control at speeds of more than 40 knots! Built for one use only…... SPEED!
The smooth, frictionless rocker line and moderate width create the best combination for maximum speed in all water conditions. At 48cm wide and 242cm long, the Falcon Speed has superb control in choppy water and easily carries a very wide variety of sail sizes. The CAD designed scoop-rocker line allows a lower trim over the water, ensuring great control and easy gibing, at the highest speeds.

The mono-concave tail section has a slight tail rocker for a very free ride at all times. More tail volume gives power and drive, whilst the front section is a little thinner, for control in rough conditions. A perfect feeling of “firm footing” and ultimate confidence, essential when pushing your limits at high speeds.

Fanatic head tester and Top PWA Racer Pieter Bijl:
“ I was riding the final proto in Tarifa last summer and it just wanted to go faster and faster, incredibly easy at GPS speeds over 40 knots. The ease of use and the performance really go hand in hand. With the wide point a little further forward, the board is stable, keeps trimmed and controlled. The only limit is you!“
