Goya 2008: Wave Custom
A production board called a custom board? This could confuse some but it actually makes sense as Goya Boards claim this is Francisco’s favorite board from the end of each season which then gets sent out to Thailand for molding and later built with the finest materials in the industry utilizing a continuous lay up, that minimizes transitions, achieving the lightest weight-strength ratio on the market. So buy one of these and you are actually sailing Francisco Goya’s favourite board!!
Features
-
NEW short shape (not wider) keeping the performance from the previous years in full on frontside conditions while adding maneuverability in the smaller waves and stronger winds.
- NEW Concave-double concave bottom shape puts together the best features from the concave (control) and V bottoms (added planning, speed & easy rail to rail) into one.
- The 68 and 75 litre models feel weightless but still driving under your feet when the winds get strong giving full control in overpowered conditions and full frontside turns.
-
The 81 and 90 are ideal for medium to light-wind conditions, and they are also great for the heavier rider who is looking for a hardcore wave board to ride in strong winds. The 90 litres comes specially equipped with a single high density top sandwich and a double bottom sandwich, keeping it at the same weight as the Custom 81.
Construction
3D CNC Shapes, Ultra Light Finish, High Density Double Sandwich, Carbon, Biaxial Glass.
