When the Trip was first introduced to the public at the ’97 X-Games, it changed the face of board design forever. Every board designed since then has grown from this simple foundation of multiple fins. This new Trip is a modernized version of the classic… built for speed, and made for fun!
Features
THE BOARD:
Variable Edge Rail: rolled edge through midsection becoming sharper as it moves towards the tips --- forgiving, catch-free through middle, hard cutting and fast off the tail
D-I-S-C hull through center: Double-Inside-Single-Concave…Softens landings and maintains board speed
Modern Bat Tail: fuller than the original for more lift off the tail of the board and tucked in tips for quick transitions
Aggressive, continuous rocker: smooth, fluid carves with a high arcing pop
Low Volume Rails: faster on edge, and deeper hold in turns
Molded-in Warped Long Based Side Fins: superior tracking hold with minimum drag and slider strong
THE BOOTS:
New Lycra/PVC Toe and Heel Pieces: soft against the foot and adjustable enough to accommodate the size range you are looking for… super easy to get into… no hands or mechanical pieces required
Newly Integrated Heel Piece: heel piece is integrated into overlay for easier entry and more comfortable fit when in boot
Full Stretch Comfort Gussets on Toe Piece: allows toe piece to lift while foot easily slides into boot. No pinch points and a better fit
F2 PLATE System… New for 2008! -The evolution of the FAST System… Slide Locks release as thumbscrew is loosened, allowing for easier stance adjustment than ever before
Side Mounted Hardware: allows liner to wrap up and around your foot, causing this boot to feel more like your favorite pair of shoes and less like wakeboard bindings of the past
Canted foot-bed: Your arch, foot, ankles, knees, and hips will thank you
