Last season we introduced the Stubby. This year we took our development a step further and crossed it with elements of the FreeWave into this unbelievable hybrid of pure joy! Evolving ideas with complementing concepts means that the FreeWave STB doesn’t only look hot, it's a hot performer that you're just going to love!
After the success of the Stubby over the past year and the positive aspects of planing, control and manoeuvrability, it wasn’t long until the first FreeWave STB prototype was cut in the CNC machine. The result was a slightly longer, faster, more bump & jump oriented version of our Stubby TE. After extensive testing, there was no way we could hold back on something so great! The FreeWave STB is pure dynamite and the start of a new era for the FreeWave line. With guaranteed easy wave performance, the board flys over any kind of surface like a missile. Available in sizes 85, 95 & 105l, and constructed in the TE and the super high-end TeXtreme® construction, the FreeWave STB is going to be your new favourite toy!
TEXTREME® TECHNOLOGY
Lightweight. Stiff. Incredible. The TeXtreme® line is the most exclusive, high- performance construction in windsurfing. Available on selected Fanatic boards, the TeXtreme® takes advantage of Innegra’s resin absorption ability, weight reduction, stiffness, impact protection and UV-resistance. The Oxeon-built fabric allows for incredibly light PVC sandwich layups, with the added bonus of a fully visible carbon rail and bottom graphics. High quality, full Innegra Carbon on the remaining parts of the deck round off the TeXtreme® construction to create the strongest, lightest, stiffest board on the market. Less resin, more strength, less weight; it doesn’t get better than TeXtreme®.
