JP Slalom3 Windsurfing Board
PRO - PRO EDITION with full Biax Carbon top and bottom and G10 fin. Super Limited Silver Finish on top, bottom and rails.
At top level racing small differences decide about loosing or winning. All the top riders are great sailors and very fit. Even for the best in the world a board which is just slightly easier to handle, makes the difference.
The Mark 3 Slalom is a move awat from the super short board concept, especially on the smaller sizes resulting in easy jibing and forgiveness in maneuvers.
The volume distribution is radically different this year. The whole board has been thinned, especially in the nose and center area. Also the rails are thinner with reduced radius. These changes result in huge improvements in top end control and consequently in easily maintaining top speed over a long period.
A constant deck radius allows the rider to wrap his feet around the rail. Constant, even pressure on both feet and perfect lock in the footstraps makes high speed runs a relaxed experience.
The new deck shape also allows to have the straps slightly closer to the center line. This change, in combination with the adjusted outlines with more curve between the straps, results in huge improvements in maneuvers.
The tail Cut-outs are reduced in the smaller boards to provide longer rail line for more top end contro. While they are bigger in the larger sizes to reduce surface friction and improve release.
The smallest size (69) is now a real high wind board but it is not only limited to the slalom course as it is also a great board for the speed strip.
The Tail Cut-Outs have been adjusted to each board size. The smaller boards require a longer rail line for more top end control and therefore come with a smaller(89) or no Cut-Out (69).
The bigger models which obviously have a wider tail require a bigger Cut-Out to achieve a loose water position and perfect water release (flow).
