For a Free Fast Planing Sensation
To streamline the range we morphed the high-performance Freeride Eagle line into our cutting-edge pack of Sharks. The Shark’s finely CAD-tuned scoop rocker lines deliver performance and comfort. The compact and balanced outline, with wider center and narrower tail shapes supported by our CAD Logical Volume Flow, guarantees control and comfort in any conditions. Smooth rails carve through chop like powder for satisfying jibing sensations, and a clean Power-V bottom shape ensures swift water release for outstanding speed and turnability.

The three smallest sizes 100, 115 and 125 descend from the Eagle. These three global test-winners now feature high-resistance ‘Shark-Skin’. All sizes are available in unbeatable value High Resistance Skin (HRS) that’s perfect for everyday use. The larger 135 and 150 are also offered in the new, improved Carbon Sandwich LTD Edition, with light finish and a G10 fin.

Key Developments:
- Much shorter and wider compact outlines
- Reduced area 80° pintail for less drag, improved speed and turning control
- Fuller front rails for a forgiving ride and smooth jibing. Thinner rails in the tail for tight turns and grip
- Higher rocker for amplified control
- Increased V for release and carving ability
- Increased double concave for cutting through the chop on max power
- Domed deck for comfort and ultimate footsteering feel

Fanatic Shaper Sebastian Wenzel:
“The Sharks got a lot of attention and pretty intense R&D this time round. We wanted something that would be forgiving to the first-time jiber through to more advanced sailors hell-bent on cranking powerful turns. The most important thing we achieved from the CAD analysis was the easy-to-use aspect from a more compact outline and smoother volume flow.”
