Naish S27 Skater

Skater Freestyle/Wave Sizes: 5’0″, 5’2″, 5’4″ “Early planing and stability, this board holds its line while going upwind through the chop and comes alive when carving with energetic turning.” – Tom Moore / The Kiteboarder Superior in a range of conditions, the Skater is versatile, playful, and the right board for riders transitioning from a twin tip to a surfboard. Featuring a bamboo laminate, a strapless impact resistance heel, and rail patch, and 3 mm PVC stance area reinforcement, the Skater is extremely durable, minimizing pressure dents. If you are in search of a board that makes it easier to ride in strong winds, load the rail in choppy conditions, and control while sending strapless airs, the Skater is the best choice for you.   Length Width Thickness Volume 5’0″/152.4 cm 17 1/2″/44.5 cm 2″/5.1 cm 21 L 5’2″/157.5 cm 18 3/16″/46.2 cm 2 3/16″/5.6 cm 24 L 5’4″/162.6 cm 19 1/2″/49.5 cm 2 5/16″/5.9 cm 27 L   Construction Lightweight Finish = Lightweight board for better response higher performance Full Deck Carbon 3K Carbon Patch = Strength improved load spread High Tensile Fiberglass = Outstanding strength-to-weight ratio Double Bamboo Sandwich Deck = Maximum durability minimizes pressure dents Strapless Impact Resistance Heel and Rail Patch = Strength improved load spread Lightweight Fiberglass = Overall lighter board CNC Cut 25 kg Density EPS Core = Precision shaping lightweight Carbon Stringer Bottom = Added stiffness Features   New – Diamond Grooved and Embossed EVA Pad Perfectly suited for strapped or strapless riding featuring a tail kick and center foot arch providing ultimate comfort and grip New – Mini Tuttle Style Fin Boxes Due to the heavy loads that are applied to the fins and boxes while kiting, the mini tuttle style system provides additional strength allowing the rider to kite as aggressively as they wish.
