Why You’ll Love the Choice 7
Built to Load Hard and Release Clean
The Choice 7 is made for riders who want to edge hard, build high line tension, and convert that power into explosive takeoffs. It grips when you load, then releases cleanly when it is time to go up.
Big Air Control at Speed
A refined rocker line, strong rail hold, and controlled flex help the board stay composed during fast approaches, powered takeoffs, and heavy landings.
Freestyle Confidence
The Choice 7 is not just about going high. The larger sizes add more freestyle focus, giving riders the support, rebound, and confidence needed for powered tricks and more aggressive riding.
Lighter, Faster, More Reactive
With new Triax Carbon construction and around 200 grams less weight, the Choice 7 feels quicker underfoot, easier to redirect, and more explosive when loaded.
Key Features
New Triax Carbon Construction
The new Triax Carbon layup delivers extremely high rebound force, faster response, and explosive pop. It gives the Choice 7 the crisp, sporty feel riders want for big air and freestyle progression.
New Unibody Edge Light
A closed torsion box construction increases rebound and pop while helping the board stay precise under load. The result is a stronger, more connected edge-to-release feel.
Rail Channels + Angled Fins
Rail channels and angled fins create massive grip for aggressive edging, explosive pop, and more confident takeoffs—especially when riding powered or preparing for big jumps.
Multi-Channel Bottom with Center Bulge
The bottom shape adds grip, control, and stability in a wide range of riding situations, helping the board track cleanly while staying manageable at speed.
Dome + Beveled Deck
The deck shape helps reduce reverse flex and improves early planing, giving the board a more efficient feel when accelerating and a stronger response when loaded.
Refined VEE Rocker
The newly tuned VEE rocker line keeps the board fast while reducing the risk of catching or diving, helping riders hold speed through choppy water and powered approaches.
GreenPoxy Construction
CORE uses epoxy resin with 35% plant-origin content, helping reduce environmental impact while maintaining the performance and durability expected from a premium carbon twintip.
Paulownia Light Wood Core
A lighter Paulownia wood core keeps strength high while reducing weight, giving the Choice 7 a lively, powerful, and responsive feel underfoot.
Performance Feel
Maximum Load
The Choice 7 is designed to hold a serious edge. It lets you build high line tension before takeoff, giving big air riders the power they need for height and hang time.
Effortless Pop
Carbon rebound, edge grip, and the tuned rocker line work together to create a crisp release from the water, making jumps feel more explosive and efficient.
Controlled Hard Landings
The board stays composed at speed and on heavier landings, giving riders more confidence when pushing bigger boosts, rotations, and powered freestyle moves.
Fast, Sporty Ride
The Choice 7 is the board for riders who like a direct, lively twintip that feels powerful under load and quick from edge to edge.
Sizes & Tuning Guide

| 134 x 40.5 | Big Air / maximum edge grip / explosive pop | Best for smaller riders or powered conditions where quick response and strong edge hold are the priority. |
| 136 x 41 | Big Air / maximum edge grip / explosive pop | A strong high-performance size for riders who want compact control, fast response, and powerful takeoffs. |
| 138 x 41.5 | Big Air / maximum edge grip / explosive pop | The key all-around big air size for many riders, balancing grip, pop, speed, and landing control. |
| 140 x 42 | Big Air + added unhooked freestyle focus | Good for riders wanting extra support, more freestyle capability, and slightly stiffer flex for powered tricks. |
| 142 x 42.5 | Big Air + added unhooked freestyle focus | The largest Choice 7 option for bigger riders, lighter wind, or riders wanting maximum platform and freestyle stability. |
