Tabou Test Reports: Windsurfing Magazine
Rocket 105
What We Liked: “A speed
stick on steroids!”, “Fun to run”, “Smoking fast!” –all exact words
that came out of the test team’s mouths. The Rocket’s ready to blast no
matter who’s at the helm – light or heavyweight, intermediate or
expert. It didn’t disappoint in the jibes, either.
Better Than the Fleet at: Getting our freestyle-crazy expert to want to own a slalom stick!
Best Suits: Any sailor that’s looking for a speeding thrill.
Other Highlights: At 13.1 lbs, it’s the lightest board in the entire test by over a pound.
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."
