Because now all our 2025 Wave >< Freestyle boards are made in a FULL CUSTOM TECHNOLOGY. This makes the 2025 SLS boards again approx. 200g lighter yet much stronger than boards made in the usual semi custom construction: STRONG-LIGHT-SUPERIOR! For further details please see below under D/LAB vs. SLS vs. ORIGINAL.

But for us custom made stops at the shape of the board because custom shapes often turn out to be a surprise egg. 

Our GRIP SLS boards are constantly evolving designs and constructions to ensure we are continuously at the forefront of development yet with over 40 years of experience. We call them World Cup Wave boards as they are engineered to satisfy the best of the best on all kind of spots around the globe, from jumping-oriented side-on conditions like Pozo to down-the-line groundswell conditions like Hookipa.

During development, the major inputs came from 3-time PWA Wave World Champion Victor Fernandez and our next gen heroes Alexia and Carlos Kiefer and Tobias Bjornaa. We have selected these guys as they all have a very contest oriented riding style. Therefore instead of demanding super specialised and extreme shapes they always aim for:

• Boards that are super balanced and easy to control in all kind of conditions without taking on a life of their own, to score maximum turns and jumps
• Boards that are super versatile to sail and allow front- and back foot riding to get the most out of each wave even when the conditions are changing
• Boards offering a maximum wind range to avoid being forced to switch boards during the heat

Well isn’t that exactly what we all expect from our wave board? And that’s why Victor, Alexia, Carlos and Tobias are our most important assets in the development process. In fact, all our GRIP SLS production boards are exact replicas of their best boards from the PWA tour.
