Boardseeker Magazine
Test Winner - Aug. 20, 2010 "The Tabou Rocket really hits the nail on the head when
it comes to freeriding. It tops the tables in nearly every
performance category, yet impressively blends all this
performance with being one of the easiest boards to ride.
The
Tabou Rocket has quite rightly established itself as a benchmark
freeride board thanks to a fantastic blend of performance and ease of
use...The easiest board to go fast on. It goes quick without even trying
hard and is really comfortable at the same time...Unbelievable control
at the top end for a board of this size and the best early planing
performance of the group"
Tabou Test Reports: Boardseeker Magazine
"Tabou have really hit the nail on the head with this board. For blasting, gybing, early planing and fun, you won't find a better board on the market.
Without question, the Tabou Rocket is the quickest board onto the plane in the group...what impresses most however, is the ease at which it manages to get going.
It really is head and shoulders above the rest when it comes to true ease of planing...The Rocket lives up to its name. It really is a quick board, but in keeping with form so far, it's the ease at which it goes fast that impresses...the group leader for intermediate and beginner carve gybers."

Gaastra
quality, Gaastra Satisfaction Guaranteed. Designed by American Dan
Kaseler. Developed in USA.
This short-luff, compact sail
provides quick acceleration with ultra maneuverability! It is soft in
the hands and powerful in the light winds.... A sail that will do
whatever it is told!
The 4 batten skeleton (4.2 - 5.0m), reduces weight while
generating power. 5 battens (5.3 - 6.6m) for exceptional stability in gusts. It has a forgiving character that delivers instant
on/off response offering great control. The Low aspect ratio is perfect
for wave, freestyle and freeride sailors. The window shape is optimized for
viewing the wave so you can see exactly where you need to go. A
triangulated load bearing panel gives an unmatched strength to weight
ratio.
Bottom
line A radical do it all sail- works great for wave, freestyle
and freeride jumping applications. A progressive rig with great range in the gusts - it will not let you
down. This durable construction will take abuse and keep you going
strong. The new-school design will take your sailing to the next level!
Boardseeker Magazine test of 5.3: When it comes to wave performance the IQ is
extremely impressive, offering lightness, maneuverability
and agility that you wouldn't normally associate with a sail
of this size. These assets, combined with a fantastic top
end, make it a great choice for all types of wavesailor.
