The choice of the board is made in function of the use:
- To start, a board with fins for a better stability.
- To use parks rails or jumps it’s necessary to use a board without fins.
- To realize slidding figures it’s advised to have the flatest surface as possible.
Comments:
- Some board have removable fins for more versatility.
- A thick board with big volume offers a better floatation.
- Average recommended length: between 140 and 150cm.
We can offer wakeboards. Prices and models available on request.
The Swaik demonstrated how much is possible for seated riders.
It opened the doors to a new riding style, probably impossible with the old frames we used!
I pushed my Swaik and myself to unknown tricks and obstacles, something’s nobody ever did.
Till a bad crash I had last week, luckily I’m ok, and my Swaik too, only my board is destroyed.
I have no other ideas for improving the Swaik.
It works so good!
It’s amazing.
So… congratulations man, because you did a great job.
The seat is amazing and has allowed me to get back out on the water again after 10 years of towing everyone else around.
Why it took so long for me to stumble across your fantastic product is beyond.
Lots of fun!!
