New Arrivals
NEW FANATIC SUP EARLY RELEASE - RACE 12´6" x 27 ¾"
New Fanatic
Fly Race - SUP Early Release  $2,399

After the introduction of Fanatics first SUP Race board last year, we decided to design a smaller version of the acclaimed 12'6'' x 30 ½". Lighter and more advanced paddlers will enjoy the design features of a Fanatic Sup race shape, that behaves like its wider big brother. This smaller 12'6'' x 27-1/4" has wide range of use from flat water performance to gliding long ocean swell. Stretched lines with a displacement bow guarantees maximum speed. The bow's been refined for a super quick water release and recovery from piercing chop. Complex bottom surfaces have been CAD-optimized to deliver maximum speed and glide.

 

Features:
- Sharp water-cutting Bow, transforming into a slight rounded V towards the tail
- Smooth Tail rocker for clean water release in paddle motion
- Flat angled deck shape for secured stance and water release
- Domed nose for quick nose recovery and water dispersal
- Stretched Outline with stabilizing square tail
- Long stretched waterline
- CAD analyzed surfaces and curve flow
