Since its introduction in 2001 the SKATE has always been at the forefront of the most competitive freestyle boards. There is no other board which collected more freestyle titles than the SKATE.

The SKATE has shaped the past, present and future of modern freestyle competition. A special focus has gone into the 91-litre size as it’s the go-to size for our team riders in most conditions. With a compact length of only 216cm and a finely tuned tail shape for fastest acceleration and a livelier and quicker reaction, the 91l version is the most compact and radical freestyle board we’ve ever made.


The SKATE SLS delivers explosive acceleration and top speed, leading to massive pop for dizzying spins and rotations. The compact shape ensures you can land the move in complete control, ready to turn or pop again. The flat nose is ideal for sliding tricks, while the full tail ensures you maintain your speed even switch stance or during lulls. Shaped for zero compromise, the SKATE SLS will take your riding to the next level, no matter what your goals are. Rotate, slide, rinse & repeat – the water is your skatepark.


The SKATE SLS is available in our unique Premium Sandwich Technology - STRONG-LIGHT-SUPERIOR, our no compromise construction with guaranteed optimum performance. It also features a foil force approved Power Box for maximum durability.

PREMIUM SANDWICH TECHNOLOGY

The PREMIUM SANDWICH TECHNOLOGY consists of 50 individual parts and components and is our lightest semi custom technology. Achieved through lighter raw materials and a higher carbon content and a sophisticated layup with a much higher amount of load spot specific patches, stringers and reinforcements. Important these weight savings do not go to cost of durability. This is why as the first production brand we offer a 1 YEAR UNLIMITED WARRANTY on these boards when registered online (dents excluded).

Outline

Super compact and with less nose area for reduced swing weight and even faster rotations.

Rail Shape

Soft nose rails for smooth transition into sliding moves. Boxy Spock-tail results in maximum pop.

Deck Shape

Reduced dome deck shape results in a more stable/balanced stance helping to land even the most difficult tricks.

Bottom Shape

Power V bottom shape for constant control and easy sliding.

Rocker Line

The super fast rocker line provides instant top speed to transfer as much speed as possible into maximum jump height.

Duotone Premium Strap

High quality closed cell neoprene for maximum longevity. Only black Lycra coating guarantees maximum comfort as well as maximum durability. The strap features measurement markings to allow you to quickly set up and replicate your individual size. Board specific attachments:

  • All World Cup boards come equipped with double-screw plugs to prevent any twist and ensuring the most direct connection to the board
  • All other boards come equipped with single-screw plugs to allow a faster repositioning of the straps plus a more comfortable ride due to a certain "give"


Duotone Pro Pads

8-10mm thick duo density EVA (depending on the board type) provides best dampening comfort and control. The heat pressed diamond grooving pattern protects the EVA against abrasion and provides an extraordinary grip level. We only select EVA colours which don't look dirty after use and will also resist fading after hours in the sun.
