Item details
Quickly getting on a plane and reaching top speed is a crucial performance element of the Global that leads to great jumping performance. Combined with a turning ability that allows the rider to drive off his back foot or focus on carving turns off the front foot, this board line truly has everything needed to perform in the widest variety of conditions. It's best suited to side-onshore and onshore conditions while offering enough range to also feel at home in side-shore conditions.
SHAPE DETAILS
The Global's outline carries a bit more width through the nose and tail compared to a Ho'okipa Quad, giving it additional stability and planing ability. The V-bottom shape starts with a slight V in the entry of the nose area that carries into a V with a slight double concave in its midsection, transferring into a clean V release out the tail. The rocker line focuses on early planing and fast acceleration. Combined with the V-bottom shape, we managed to achieve a turning ability that is comparable to other side-shore boards. The Global's rail shape carries a slight edge with a medium tuck through the nose and midsection that turns sharp just behind the front foot area for ultimate early planing and good acceleration.
Technical Data
“We have spent the last 2 years working on the new Global range. The goal was to create a board line that literally works anywhere. For me specifically this means that I can take any of those boards and use them to compete in the majority of the PWA Wave events around the world which are mainly in side-onshore and onshore conditions” - Ricardo Campello
