Why You’ll Love It
Flyweight Carbon Performance
The premium carbon layup minimizes weight while providing the stiffness and immediate response expected from a high-performance twintip.
Explosive Pop
Tip-to-tip carbon reinforcement stores and releases energy efficiently, producing powerful pop for boosting and technical tricks.
Soft, Controlled Landings
The center spine of the double-concave hull contacts the water first, helping break surface tension and smooth out landings.
Low Swing Weight
Milled-down tips reduce excess material and rotational weight, helping the board move quickly and naturally during aerial maneuvers.
Ride and Performance
Full-Length Double Concave
The double-concave bottom runs through the length of the board, providing a smooth ride, controlled tracking and softer touchdown characteristics.
Fast, Direct Response
The carbon construction responds immediately to rider input for confident edging, quick transitions and precise control at speed.
Lively Freeride Feel
An Atomic Wood Core gives the Formula V3 a springy character and consistent flex for energetic freeriding and aerial progression.
Efficient Aerial Handling
The lightweight build and reduced tip mass make rotations, board control and repositioning easier once the board leaves the water.
Construction and Technology
High-Modulus Carbon Construction
A high-modulus 30/30 carbon fiber blend extends from tip to tip, providing stiffness, strength and an explosive release in a lightweight package.
Weight Reduction Tips
The stiffness of the carbon construction allows the tips to be milled thinner, reducing excess material and improving swing weight.
Atomic Wood Core
Vertically laminated, sustainably grown Paulownia wood provides strength, durability and consistent flex with a lively feel underfoot.
Strategic Carbon Bedrock Inserts
A streamlined insert layout reduces unnecessary material while reinforcing the binding connection for demanding freeride sessions.
Singleshot Fusion Sidewalls
High-durometer urethane rails are integrated into the core in a single manufacturing process for dependable dampening and durability.
Dura Light Base
A thin 0.2 mm base layer provides a carefully balanced combination of lightweight performance, strength and everyday durability.
