High performance from 5 to 30 knots
What helped the Techno 293 OD become such a successful Class Racing
board was its general performance and easy control. With a high volume
and moderate outline, the Techno 293 OD provides a stable platform for
learning to windsurf. A daggerboard provides directional stability and
makes sailing upwind a breeze. In light winds, the near 3 m length helps
the board really glide through the water, making windsurfing an
exciting option in sub-planing conditions. Once the wind gets up, the
concave hull helps boost the board onto the plane making for great
funboard sailing. Its lightweight and solid construction ensure that the
performance and durability remain even after intensive use. Competition
aside, the Techno 293 OD is ideal for learning and leisure funboarding.
This versatility enables clubs to reduce their overheads and equipment
costs by having just one board model from learning right through to
racing. With high quality fittings it really is a reliable, high
performance board, comfortable in all water conditions.
ALL ROUND PERFORMANCE
Under 10 knots of wind
The Hybrid sails like a little raceboard. Thanks to its length and volume distribution, the board glides through the water. The position of the mast foot and the angle of the daggerboard allow options for fine tuning. Pumping is made easy thanks to the boards balance and ease of control.
Over 10 knots of wind
The Hybrid sails more like a Formula board with quick reactions, powerful acceleration and high top end speed. The sailing style is therefore much more short board orientated with easy control a key feature.

ADDITIONAL INFO:
BIC Hybrid is the Youth World Raceboard Champion !!! (09/08/2006)
We are pleased to announce that the BIC Hybrid is the new Youth World Raceboard Champion! At the latest Youth Windsurf Championships in Marsala, Sicily, the BIC Hybrid finished with very successful results of 1st & 2nd place, and 5 boards in the top 10!!
With a total of 50 competitors in the raceboard competition, and a total of 11 races completed (including 2 discards), the BIC Hybrid completely dominated the racing which was mainly conducted in 8-12 knots of wind. The BIC Hybrid also proved its true all round qualities as it remained competitive in the stronger winds of up to 15 knots allowing the leaders to maintain their overall position in the final races.
Main Aims
Designed for all age groups (weight > 65 kg).
Able to race in a large wind range: 5 - 30 knots.
Efficient, fast and powerful in non-planing conditions.
Planing starts in 10 knots of wind.
Designed for race programs
Designed for juniors and seniors
- Volume, width and rail thickness are of moderate size, + a deep V = the board is easy to control even in strong winds.
Able to race in a large wind range: 5 - 30 knots.
- Length of over 3 metres + moderate volume = performance in very light winds and easy to control in the strong winds.
- Rails are tapered at the front of the board = smooth ride in rough water conditions (no catching!).
- 5 adjustable mast track positions allow for maximum tuning in any conditions.
- 70 cm retractable daggerboard : performance and control on all tacks.
Efficient, fast and powerful in non-planing conditions
- Moderate width (82cm) + upwind step = easy to rail the board when sailing upwind.
-With a low rocker the board sits low on the water, gliding through the water in light winds, especially downwind with pumping.
- The marked V at the stern allows the board to sail comfortably through the chop in light winds, and promotes early planing and good rail grip close to the wind.
Planing starts in 10 knots of wind
- In 10 knots of wind, the Hybrid starts to plane thanks to its tight scoop from stern to daggerboard (115 cm). The marked V at the stern progressively increases towards the front of the board further promoting early planing and providing comfort in the chop.
Designed for race programs
- All-purpose shape, retractable daggerboard and adjustable mast track = able to perform equally well in all types of races even in the lightest of wind.
- Large width one foot off the tail = able to handle a 65 cm fin = giving great results in the performance / course / speed ratio
