STRAPLESS FINLESS new toy in rotation


first decent water session in a week and jumped on the old school wake skate

hyperlite no idea what year, looks like a soft top twin tip blank

i have never surfed before so i really don't have any idea the true feel but it feels softer than a kite board i think it would be similar to a surfy feel

very light , upwind was fair it surprised me

very light on top balance , edged just like a finless light wind twin tip

skim board feel with a little better rail feel

strapless thing, really cool feel. def gonna be the new ditch toy for the summer.


hop launch on to it or rail hold pinch at the back heel with power stroke.

i'll get a pic , this thing is naked

the wakeboarder who gave it(demo'd) to me will most likely have to come get it if he wants it back . i am certainly not gonna just give back any time soon. thx shane... it will come back to you

That would be absolutely perfect in some realms. :singing: How is it working for you out on the beach? You have me actually envisioning myself riding one of these. I've come up on bindingless slalom water skis for barefoot starts before. I need to plane off with some bindings first though I imagine.

throw it down in a foot of water.... hop on with the power stroke and you're rippin'

the slightest heel pressure keeps it under you , heels favoring upwind rail and it points and tracks fair i am gonna add some small fins for a little help. surprised me how you can move around on it. totally new thing for me

the wife's working the resize


the review thing, yeah that's my universal version , works well in most topics

i'll bring it to JIBE
