Fanatic’s and Sebastian Wenzel´s reputation in wave board design has been built over years of innovative shapes, leading to some of the most radical, yet user-friendly wave boards ever built.

The 2008 designs are packed full of CAD features to ensure the NewWave legend continues to satisfy both our demanding team riders and wavesailors worldwide. A close relationship between shaper Sebastian Wenzel and our world cup wave team ensures direct feedback. The most advanced CAD software available makes it possible to analyse all the curves that work together for perfect harmony and performance.

With our regular NewWave line already having some of the lightest weights on the market, it was a real challenge for our engineers to come up with even lighter boards! By combining the finest materials available and the use of the Fanatic Ultra Lite finish, new record weights have been reached. Using a full Technora Kevlar bottom layup and optimising various reinforcement areas ensures a substantial weight decrease, whilst dramatically increasing stiffness and performance. Not only does the Team Edition benefit from a lighter weight, it also has a unique optic with a white base colour fading out into metallic silver rails, all in ultra light finish. With a polished nose area and the Fanatic logo shining thru in Technora Kevlar look, there is no sexier waveboard on the market!

All shape features and fittings of the NewWave Team Edition remain the same as the CAD designed standard NewWave. The 2008 designs are packed full of CAD features to ensure the NewWave legend continues to satisfy both our demanding team riders and wavesailors worldwide. A close relationship between shaper Sebastian Wenzel and our World Cup wave team ensures direct feedback. The most advanced CAD software available makes it possible to analyse all the curves that work together for perfect harmony and performance.

The new mono concave/double concave power control bottom shape is designed with a slight double concave through the mono concave. The mono/double concave in the back section of the board delivers more control in choppy waters and on the face of the wave. The performance of the NewWave line has once again raised the bar in wave board design, giving you the ultimate shape for wavesailing.

All three sizes, 69, 75 and 81 share similar design features using the latest CAD technology and perfectly cover the range of riders and sails for all good wave conditions worldwide
