Why You’ll Love It
Fast & Efficient
The TRAX accelerates quickly, maintains speed through lulls and converts edge pressure into strong upwind drive.
Explosive Carbon Pop
Carbon-tuned flex stores and releases energy efficiently, giving freestyle and big-air riders a powerful launch from the edge.
Controlled Through Chop
The inverted rail beneath the rider and concave base help the board track smoothly instead of bouncing through rough water.
Light in the Air
Low board weight and responsive tips make rotations, grabs and aerial corrections feel quick and controlled.
Helical Rail Design
Thin Central Rail
A thin, sharp rail through the center creates dependable grip for edging, upwind tracking and powered takeoffs.
Inverted Rail Underfoot
The 16 mm inverted section beneath the rider creates supportive contact zones that reduce bouncing and improve drive through chop.
Thin Tips
The rails become thin again toward the tips, increasing edge bite and helping the board release with clean, explosive pop.
Reduced Spray
The shaped rail profile directs water away from the rider for a cleaner and more comfortable ride in rough conditions.
Construction & Technology
Full Biaxial Carbon Layer
A complete carbon layer reduces weight while increasing rigidity, strength and the speed of the board’s flex response.
Wood Core
The profiled wood core supplies strength, resilience and carefully controlled flex for a lively yet dependable ride.
3D Deck Structure
The shaped deck creates a precise central platform while allowing flex to increase progressively toward the tips.
Tip Recess
Strategic material reduction at the tips lowers weight and increases tip flexibility for smoother landings and additional pop.
Concave Step Design
A single concave paired with a full-length channel supports early planing, secure tracking and efficient water flow.
UNIBOX Response Fins
Four asymmetrical 50 mm fins provide speed, glide and edge grip while retaining enough flex for forgiving freestyle landings.
