Five Amazing Wakesurfers to Take Your Riding to New Heights in 2015
As wakesurfing continues to grow and progress by leaps and bounds, it might be a good time to update your quiver. Here are five of the best boards on the market for 2015:
The Emily Agate Pro Model. This board has become a top seller of the 2014 season. It has a blunt nose with a squash tail design. The squash tail makes the board very responsive and quick to maneuver for aggressive carves. The blunt nose will allow the board to be rode reverted with ease. The blunt nose will also straighten out the rail line, which will make the board even faster. Would recommend riding this board 1” to 2” shorter than the normal size recommended for the rider. It’s a fast board with lots of pop to get those ollies higher and higher!! It comes with the twin fin set up but can have twinzer or 6 fin additions.
4’ 5?- 20.25” – 1.5/8? up to 150 lbs. Beginner to Advanced
Number of Fins: Twin Fin Setup
Core Material: EPS/Epoxy
MSRP: $875

The Stealth Model wakesurf features a blunted nose to fit into the pocket of the wake and wide full outline into a stealth tail. The Stealth also comes with a steprail shape for quick tight turns in the pocket. This board is made for performance riding both in and and top of the wake yet is stable enough for the beginner/intermediate to start pushing their skills. With its wide outline the full single concave runs from nose to tail giving the board both lift and speed in the wake. The Stealth is set up as a Quad fin setup featuring the FSCII system and is made from 1.5lb EPS foam.

Colors:

Green
Fins = Quad
Ride as a quad with large front and small rear fins to give you plenty of drive down the line with a very “locked in” stable feel. Trade the small rear fins out with smaller “Nubster” fins for a loose ride that will allow you to break the tail free for spins but still offers stability while landing above the lip maneuvers. Ride as a twin fin with the large front fins and the board becomes very loose and able to spin.
MSRP: $675
