Highlights des SPLEENE ZONE
Real surf feeling and good comfort
The SPLEENE waveboards have a natural liveliness and a pleasant flex. This allows real surf feeling, without compromise. This is achieved through the use of a special, hand-finished PU core, as it is also used in classic surfboards. Every turn with a SPLEENE waveboard is a real pleasure and even choppy conditions turn into pleasure. So you enjoy long surf sessions to the fullest.
Wave action
The harmonious adjustment between the tail and the center of the board make the ZONE a wave allrounder. In small waves it takes enough thrust and shines in large waves with a harmonious agility.
Thanks to the good controllability and the comfortable width of the ZONE waveboard, snappy turns at the top of the wave are no problem. The SPLEENE ZONE quickly finds guidance - even in the wind waves we are used to from the north of Europe.
Rail to rail surfing
With the ZONE you can pull fantastic bottom turns into the wave and shred them with radical cut backs. The thinning rails in the tail of the board give you extra grip. The ZONE Waveboard takes the edge change playfully. The PU construction provides the necessary smoothness in bottom turn - no matter what radius - and restoring power as well as feedback in the cut back.
This is exactly how surfing in the wave must be!
PU construction with stringer
The SPLEENE waveboards are handmade in PU construction, like a classic surfboard. In the last 50 years different construction methods with different materials have been tested in surfing and windsurfing. Our opinion and that of the experts is clear: The PU construction is the only method to build lively waveboards with real surf feeling for kiting.
Also wood could never be completely replaced over the decades. In every good ski, sowboard or kiteboard there is wood! So also in the SPLEENE waveboards: A wooden stringer runs through the middle of the boards and makes the setup perfect.
The construction requires intensive handwork and many years of experience. That's why the SPLEENE waveboards are made in small series by FATUM in Portugal. The PU core is specially optimized for board building - only a few shapers have access to this quality.
The result plays in a different league than conventional waveboards, which are manufactured in industrial construction as mass-produced goods!
>By using PU foam, wood stringer and polyester resin you get a piece of jewelry that will give you a lot of pleasure. And even in case of damage you don't have to worry. The PU core won't pull water and you don't have to end your session right away. With polyester resin, damage can be easily repaired.
Unique design
Boring white? On the contrary! The SPLEENE waveboards come in bright colors and are a special eye-catcher. The colors are applied by hand directly to the core and lie under the fiberglass on the finished waveboard. Also the SPLEENE decals are under the fiberglass and will stay with you forever.
Thruster FCS II setup with reinforcements
The ZONE Waveboard has a thruster setup and offers you the optimal balance of agility and guidance. The ZONE Waveboard allows you smooth but also radical turns and moves.
The FCS II system is used for the fin system - lightning-fast, tool-free assembly and a huge fin selection. The FCS-II Fin Plugs have been additionally reinforced during installation. For maximum durability and a robust setup - perfect for the demands of wave kitesurfing.
