CHANGES TO THE 2006 BOARD
Thinned-down nose: reduce weight + improve control and response.
Added volume to the rails between the mast track and the nose: reduces catching throughout carving manouvres.
Improved construction: some glass fibre reinforcements replaced with lighter carbon and Carbon-Kevlar as well as some changes to the PVC heel reinforcements.
NEW fins: Drake Freeride Flow fins are thinner in the tip and have super-fine trailing edges for added speed and a frictionless glide.
TWO NEW SIZES
S-Type 93: a smaller, high wind, super fast freeride board with all the agility and gybing qualities fit for Supercross.
S-Type 137: for lighter winds. The wider tail shape gives the power needed to accelerate while the heavily domed deck gives grip and comfort in both inboard and outboard strap settings.
2006 Sizes: 93, 104, 115, 126 and 137 litres
AVAILABLITY: NOW
COST: Wood £899 or D-RAM £799
