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."

The SUP is an excellent addition to a windsurf quiver, as it enables you to get out on the water even when there is no wind. The 10'6 WIND SUP will even get you to sail in light winds, as it comes equipped with a mast track, so that you can rig a sail onto it.

Easy-going sailing/paddling along the beach and we've used in small waves.

The rail being particularly long, advanced sailors get upwind even with no daggerboard. The longboard shape of the board with its well-balanced volume makes it an easy board to handle for beginners and in manoeuvres, whether in flat water or in the surf.

Made out of the E-Comp technology, the 10'6 WIND SUP is a light board that offers great resistance to shocks. It comes equipped with a comfortable pad and a carry-handle.

"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"

Both of these new weapons come with multiple strap positions to dial in improvers as well as experts. LTD construction enables no compromise performance. Weight savings of approx one pound. This allows you to accelerate more quickly, coast through the lulls easier and pass your friends with ease...
