RISE  V1

           High-Spec Design

• Ideal for intermediates and beyond who want to make quick progress
• Feel an excellent connection with the foil underfoot
• Carbon design advantages with durable, water-resistant 50K foam
• High-spec design features proven to help you manage speed in chop
• Produced to Meet Ecoboard Level One Standards

Find just the right set-up for your ability and riding style with the extended, custom-designed foil tracks that offer a comprehensive range of mast positions.

By essentially lowering your centre of gravity over the water’s surface, the recessed concave in the deck adds a greater sense of control. The high quality EVA deck grip is also designed with a centre line arch support so you can do much of the sensory work to position your feet correctly while keeping your eyes focused ahead.

The double concave hull in the nose area transitions to a flat-V section where the mast mounts, with slightly more aggressive V sides towards the tail. These features help the Rise V1 stabilise beneath you. Upon any forward movement, water flow is accelerated, adding speed and confidence to any waterstart situation – even when deeply sunk beneath the water’s surface on the lower volume models.

WHAT YOU FEEL:

• Sporty and responsive ride and super manoeuvrable feel when turning
• Energised performance and handling. Direct and connected feel with the foil that also leads to very efficient and effective pumping
• Stable platform with volume distribution refined over width, length and thickness. Perfect balance between length and width to aid ease-of-use but also keeps swing weight to a minimum for performance and progression
• Easy waterstarts and quick acceleration onto the plane
• Easy deep waterstarts and quick pumping out from water if the board sinks under your weight
• Excellent recovery from touchdowns and fewer nose dive risks with reduced chop washing over the nose
• For jumping, take-offs are smooth and landings are secure
• Ideally balanced ride for your preference with lots of options for mast position to allow for more or less lift
• Secure and comfortable underfoot grip, perfect for strapped or strapless performance in bare feet or booties
• Foot straps can be configured in many positions and are made with soft foam and neoprene to offer superb comfort. They can also be pressed flat to cause less hindrance to your upper body when paddling
• Very easy to carry

WHY YOU FEEL IT:

• Lightweight full carbon construction with 50K foam, internal reinforcements and extra carbon layer reinforcements wrapped around the nose, rails and tail
• Semi-compact shape with refined volume distribution for reduced swing weight
• Progressive rockerline with medium nose rocker
• Double concave hull in nose area transitions to V tail (with a flat section around the mast track) accelerates water flow and aids release when needed
• Progressively bevelled rails with increased angle at the nose and front of the board, evolving to a straighter rail towards the rear of board with reverse-angled tail for excellent water release
• Recessed concave deck lowers centre of gravity for improved feeling and control
• Ultra strong, custom moulded extended mast tracks
• High quality EVA grip with centre line arch bumps and tail kick
• Strong insert blocks for footstraps, easily positioned with self-tapping screws
• Deep carry handle on hull

A TRUE PERFORMER, INSIDE AND OUT

The Rise V1 is entirely constructed in a European factory with a Sustainable Surf Eco Certificate. Many design features work in unison to produce the Rise V1’s accessible but exciting and energy-rich performance.

Central to the practical performance-led design is the full carbon construction that encases a uniquely developed 50k closed cell foam. Bringing several benefits, the 50k foam is incredibly strong (capable of withstanding 50,000 kg loads per square metre) and offers excellent flexibility for high performance riding and is also more resistant to damage.

Perhaps the most practical advantage of all for the regular traveller is that the foam is also waterproof. Ding it and don’t worry; you can keep on riding, enjoying your session without fear of the board becoming water-logged before you get a chance to fix it.

Internal reinforcements, including extra carbon layers that wrap around the nose, rails and tail have been added to further ensure your riding confidence when it comes to stepping up your levels of aggression in more demanding conditions.

CONSTRUCTED FOR A TRUE SENSE OF CONNECTION

Thanks to its stiff, lightweight, full carbon shell and responsive 50k foam core, the Rise V1 accelerates the effect of your every input and provides rapid feedback from the foil that will also help improve the impulsiveness of your technique.

Where the foil mast connects to your board can be a site where connectivity is compromised, but not so here. The super strong custom designed foilbox is CNC cut with the board, then placed inside an ultra high-density PET honeycomb layer before being sandwiched within carbon, making an ultra strong and unified connection

MORE UNITY AND MORE STRENGTH

Using a progressive manufacturing process called ‘vacuum infusion’, rather than the more factory-standard vacuum bagging, the outer layers of fibre (in this case carbon) are wrapped around the closed cell foam core and then vacuum bagged before any resin is applied; crucially, while the laminate is still dry. This method compresses the layup, bringing the fibres far closer to the foam core. When injected into the vacuum, resin penetrates all layers of fibre and into the foam core’s textured surface. This infusion of resin eliminates micro air pockets, creating the ultimate bond and increasing resistance to delamination.
