FREERIDE WINDSURF

What our riders say

Robby Swift: “This has been one of my favorite boards since all the way back in 2003 when I won my first PWA Freestyle event on the Freestyle Wave of that year. It was a great board for Super-X and I have also used it in onshore wave events (on Sylt and in Klitmøller) over its various editions. This year, the board is shorter and more compact and it feels great both in a straight line and in small bump and jump conditions. It’s always a favorite of my clinic guests as it is so versatile and easy to use.” 

It has been said before and has to be pointed out again: The Freestyle Wave concept is the ideal option for 99% of coastal-sailing recreational windsurfers. If you are not sure which board line would suit you best, then you don’t need to look any further. The Freestyle wave offers so many tuning options that it can be set up perfectly for any given day, no matter what the conditions. It’s an ideal all-round high wind board for both, blasting and bump&jump sailing. It also shines as a powerful, all-round wave board for lighter winds, heavier sailors or difficult conditions and then is great fun especially for huge jumps and fast carves in side to side onshore conditions.

The direct feel derives from the reduced swing weight of the short, compact shape. The outline is parallel in the mid-section which offers a long straight area for early planing and stability. The tail is relatively narrow to maintain control on fast runs over choppy water. The FSW is agile, quick to respond and its rails bite hard into small waves without getting stuck.

The domed deck grants a comfortable stance for all foot strap positions. The deck shape also provides perfect board control and excellent responsiveness.

Offering all the traditional Freestyle Wave virtues in a new compact package that is more agile and even more fun on the water. They are fast, super comfortable and give you the confidence to push to the board’s limits. Suited for freestyle small waves and bump and jump blasting, they love to carve fast, drawn-out turns in all waters, flatwater, chop and waves. They cover it all and are simply the best JP Freestyle Waves – ever!

Shape Details

You will be stunned by the light and easy handling when blasting along.

• Still based on a thin and wide platform with adjusted proportions.
• Slightly narrower at the centre and longer -> the stretched-out waterline makes early planing easier and lifts the board effortlessly onto the plane. It provides the rider more directional stability at speed and more upwind power
• Even volume distribution keeps the centre of gravity close to the mast base
• Wider nose makes it a more stable platform when non-planing.
• New and wider tail outline -> offers great release, reduces drag and improves high wind control.
• Smooth deck shape guarantees a comfortable stance in every foot strap option and makes it easier getting in and out of the straps
• Increased V-flow underneath for a more comfortable ride, improved gybing and an exciting lively feel
• Easy entering into the straps
• Good leverage to load up the fin 

The true freerider: What is astonishing about the new board line is its ease and smoothness. You’ll step on it and everything will happen naturally and predictably. The feel is “familiar” – like putting on an old pair of shoes: It just fits! Relaxed and confident you’ll achieve more speed now than on ordinary freeride boards before. Despite these easy-riding characteristics, performance and agility are not compromised. The hull feels quick, lively and responsive. Planing readily, it provides traction which inspires you to push your fun and adrenaline and lets the board fly on its fin – in control!

Master of the turn: It feels effortless and refined even in challenging sea states. Still featuring the respected “autopilot qualities”, the MR requires little input from the rider and its forgiveness will pamper the intermediate rider and up his success rate of gybes.
At the same time its rail bite will encourage the more advanced rider to push harder and corner with full dedication: Tighter and tighter turns, classic freestyle like duck gybes and carving 360s will be the name of the game. It’s never been easier to enter the turn at speed, plane through or to learn and to master any kind of gybe.

Magic Ride  159: Longer than the other sizes, it is stable and accessible and thus the perfect board for anyone stepping down from a beginner board with daggerboard. It is specially tuned for easy, early planing! Experiencing the planing sensation and getting hooked on the feeling happens naturally.

A new epitome of freeriding: A state of the art synergy between easy handling and performance. This manoeuvre-oriented freeride board upped its overall ease and performance in all conditions. The ease, smoothness, forgiveness and control enable new performance levels and improve everyone’s riding fun.

If it’s about freeriding, then here is the MAGIC!

Greta Marchegger: I was impressed how fast and at the same time how comfortable the Super Ride is! A board to fall in love with.”

ShapeDetails

Their rounded outline is derived from the Magic Rides. The narrow tail creates additional outline curve. Your success rate of making all kinds of gybes and the fact that you will plane out of them will leave you and your sailing buddies speechless.

They are compact and relatively short overall and not too wide in the midsection. The centre of gravity is close to the mast base, which reduces swing weight, provides an incredibly smooth ride and gives you a lot of control. The parallel outline delivers stability when not planing. All this makes it a real pleasure to ride in all conditions.

The smoothly domed deck shape guarantees a comfortable stance and makes it easy to get into the footstraps, no matter whether you chose the inboard or outboard option. All strap options provide good leverage to load up the fin and accelerate.

For this concept we picked the best features of all our board lines to come up with a true all-rounder. We took the bottom curve and V flow from our performance boards resulting in excellent early planing, explosive acceleration and incredible top speed. This makes them slightly sportier than the new Magic Rides. In fact, riders who are not as advanced will be faster with the Super Rides than with the performance oriented Super Sports, because it is effortless to sail fast with the Super Rides. A trade mark of these shapes is that they reach incredible pace even in moderate winds. The high water position lets the boards fly over chop. Even big chop won’t bother you or slow you down. 

Positioned right in the centre of the freeride class, the Super Rides are simply great all-round boards for every rider!
