FREESTYLE
STEADY STYLE
JP‘s four Freestyle boards go unchanged into the next season. Nevertheless, they still are state of the art because of their super wide range of use. These boards perform at fun events on freshwater as well as in PWA and EFPT hard core freestyle events on the sea. These production boards always represent a great and complete package overall. They are stable, easy to sail and thus big fun for recreational sailors. Maintaining speed easily, they provide maximum pop – no matter if sailing regular or switch stance.
More than just conventional freestyle boards, all sizes come with JP’s reinforced Foil-Powerbox and their compact and wide shapes make them ideal toys for foil riding! This widens the range of use of your “small” gear: Just mount a foil and fly – while other freestylers with their normal fins are stuck on the beach waiting for the wind to pick up. JP’s short Freestyle boards provide enough ease and stability to pick up this new segment of our sport quite easily. Advanced foil freestylers can push their limits and pull-off their first crazy moves at the EFPT “foilstyle” events.
Although not specially designed and tuned for it, the shape dimensions also allow for the use of a wing.
Shape details:
The scoop rocker line in the mid-section of the board is flat for effortless and early planing.
The bottom shape has a pronounced V from the mast base forward which –in combination with the soft tuck line in this area of the board– makes it very forgiving. The ride is smooth and relaxed, even when sailing switch in chop and you don’t lose speed when going for double moves. These features also prevent the rail from catching during sliding moves.
The tail features sufficient width and area for efficient pop in light winds. At the same time, the tail is not too big for explosive pop when the wind picks up.
The noticeable curve in the outline and centred volume distribution brings the swing weight close to the mast base. Rotations happen a lot quicker and moves become more radical.
Towards the tail we run a defined tuck line in combination with a rather flat V bottom shape. These features create instant power, fantastic grip and a loose ride.
The fin is big enough to support all powerful moves and faster action.
The JP Freestyle boards accelerate superbly for powerful jumps. Their short, compact shapes enhance the handling in all moves and speed up all rotations. The lively and direct feel builds confidence so that amateurs and pros alike will pull-off more moves in greater style. And the Foil-Powerbox widens the range of use.
KEY FEATURES -
> Approved for foiling - Reinforced, stronger box construction for Foil-Tuttlebox and Foil-Powerbox: big recess on the deck and big washers.
> Innegra Parabolic rails - for higher durability. Resistant to impact and paint chipping. Works like a stringer along the rail so you have a better flex control during a turn and a quicker response from the board.
> Fin adjustment scale - slotbox with scale to position the fin- trimming made easy!
> Double footstrap plugs - four screws per strap = 100% anti-twist! no annoying twist anymore.
CONSTRUCTION - PRO
JP introduced this proven S-glass technology for wave boards back in 2014. High quality glass, S-Glass and Biax Glass replace various carbon materials and combinations.
S-glass has a very high tensile strength and is less brittle than carbon. Thus, it is lighter, more durable and more forgiving than carbon: on the wave, riders prefer the smooth feel of these flexy board compared to stiff carbon models.
It features high-density PVC sandwich layers in deck and bottom. The large Omega stringers in the same material are reinforced with S-glass.
Wave PROs come with moulded carbon rear fin/s!
