New ind. suspension Flexboard "Haize"


Haize means Wind in Basque


"Flexboardz specifically designed the Haize for kiting (just like a kitesurf twin tip). Its unique ability to adjust the ride angle offers a more ergonomical stance (similar to that of a kiteboard) and a maximum amount of grip, therefore limiting downwind drift for better upwind riding and faster runs without speed wobble"


Fairly impressive videos at site - the heavy-duty, over-engineered suspension supposedly "carves better than snowboards." But by the looks of the hardware, I wouldn't expect a lot of air!:smilegrin:

Those are sweet looking, but they gotta be heavy.

If they aren't heavy then there are going to cost a fortune!

wow stout tool, All those parts... what a feast!

i'm sure i could grind it into pieces and harvest the bones for something else in a couple months...it would vomit parts just like the rest.

rinse and repeat

If it does not return to
a straight position when you
relax your ankles
or step off it
think twice about its practicality

it' like the flexiboard, yes it is heavy , not naid for freestyle, mostly riding and carving. it gives you the feeling of riding the surf or snowboarding in pow,pow.
