Why You’ll Love It

Easy, Predictable Control

The proven outline and single-concave bottom create a stable, dependable ride that helps newer riders progress without limiting experienced freeriders.

Forgiving Flex

A thinner wood core allows the board to flex more freely, softening rough water and making imperfect landings easier on the rider.

Efficient Upwind Performance

The single concave supplies clean tracking and dependable edge control, helping riders hold ground and return upwind with less effort.

Built for Frequent Sessions

A durable base, reinforced inserts and vibration-damping urethane sidewalls make the Crisis a practical board for regular freeride use.

Ride & Performance

Single-Concave Hull

The time-tested bottom contour provides friendly tracking, predictable grip and strong upwind ability across a broad range of conditions.

Smooth Power Delivery

The flexible core loads progressively and releases predictably, creating accessible pop for first jumps, transitions and freeride tricks.

Comfort in Chop

Forgiving flex and damped sidewalls reduce harsh feedback, helping the board remain comfortable when the water becomes rough.

Reliable Edge Control

The predictable outline and fin setup provide secure tracking without making the board feel overly technical or demanding.

Construction & Technology

Atomic Wood Core

Vertically laminated, sustainably grown Paulownia wood gives the Crisis a lively character, dependable strength and consistent flex from tip to tip.

Dura Light Base

The durable 0.2 mm base material balances low weight with the toughness required for frequent sessions and everyday use.

Carbon Bedrock Inserts

Carbon-reinforced inserts reduce unnecessary weight, increase pull strength and help preserve a smooth, consistent flex beneath the rider.

Singleshot Fusion Sidewalls

High-durometer urethane is infused directly into the board’s core to create durable rails with effective vibration and impact damping.
