Features

SCRATCHPROOF TOPSHEET

FLAT ROCKER

The flat rocker curve keeps a large part of the board’s surface in the water. A flat profile means stability, better balance and continuous edge control. The board glides earlier.
BI-LATERAL TORSION

PAULOWNIA WOOD CORE

Designed with a full-length wood core made of responsibly grown paulownia wood. The wood guarantees the optimal mix of: Flex, responsiveness and dynamic recovery force. The board retains huge amounts of strength and durability.
wood-foam core

WIDE BOARD

A wide board glides earlier, supports the balance and the water start.
STEPPED CHANNEL TIPS

SOFT FLEX PATTERN

A softly tuned board is forgiving, achieves lower top speed and is more comfortable to ride in choppy water.
CONSTANT CURVE ROCKER

PROGRESSIVE SINGLE CONCAVE

A concave bottom allows water to be channeled in a certain direction, giving the board greater upwind ability and increased speed. The benefits are earlier planing, better control and increased directional stability.
DOUBLE CONCAVE

SCRATCHPROOF TOPSHEET

All of our boards have a special high-quality, scratch-resistant UV coating to ensure a long product life. The board graphics are protected under the coating, so they will not get damaged even if the board is slightly scratched.

Features FLOW 159

CONSTANT CURVE ROCKER

LIGHTWIND

The FLOW 159 combines light wind essentials with freeride performance, a functional shape that makes fun in any conditions. It gets you going with minimal effort and slices through choppy water with the same precision you pop off. It’s a playful lightweight twin tip at a fair price that extends your water time.
DOUBLE CONCAVE

DOUBLE CONCAVE BOTTOM SHAPE

The double concave adds stiffness to the center of the board but also channels water through the tips, creating more pop. The double concave helps to cushion hard landings as it breaks the water easily, ideal for freestyle and big air.
Go with the FLOW! Accelerate your learning curve with a no-fuss feel all-around board that boosts your confidence anytime, anywhere. The shape keeps things friendly underfoot, giving the board a playful character that maintains stability and control. The board flows naturally through the water, generating no water splash and comes to life with unmatched planing abilities. The twin tip is available in four sizes. The FLOW offers three stance options to adjust each binding perfectly to you. We recommend our carbon-reinforced SOLID 55 mm fins and the SQUAD pads & straps to get into the perfect FLOW.

Board Accessories

The SQUAD is our premium kiteboard binding and builds on a solid base plate. It transfers your input reliably to the board and offers a variety of adjustment options to perfectly match your foot. Decide on magnificent support combined with comfortable shock absorption, slide over the water so relaxed that even Jesus becomes jealous!

The injection-moulded fins are made of carbon-reinforced polyamide that is particularly light, shockproof and robust. The shape and size of the SOLID 55mm support guidance and upwind performance, the perfect combination for the FLOW board line.

FLYDOOR vs FLOW

Both boards address the same needs. In a direct comparison, the FLOW is more playful and pops better. In choppy water, it is more comfortable to ride than the FLYDOOR.

The FLYDOOR has even better planing characteristics and more directional stability. It is particularly recommended in flat water and with big kite sizes.

Stance

Wide stance: Eases grabs, greater stability on landings, recommended in strong winds

Neutral stance: best balance, best control

Tight stance: more reactive, board turns better over the middle section of the board

Pad-Position

Centered: Distributes the weight to the middle of the board, is forgiving when landing. Going upwind is more difficult

On heel side edge: Edging is easier, going upwind is more comfortable and the takeoff is easier to hit. Riding toe-side is more difficult.

Angle

Duck stance: Riding at a wide angle is recommended in combination with a centered pad position and supports carving.

Neutral position: The parallel setting is ideal for rotations. Leaves more freedom of movement to the body when spinning and greater stability when landing.
