Blast HRS
Sizes: 100 /115 /130 /145
The parallel rail concept delivers serious freeride performance, combining effortless speed with pure gybing pleasure.
Just like its Stubby Wave siblings, the narrower width compared to equivalent freerideboards gives the Blast an increased level of efficiency. The wider nose and pulled in tail offer blistering acceleration, but also a stable platform to drive from, giving you tons of speed and control over chop.
Push as gentle or as hard as you want in the corners, and the Blast responds immediately to bring you out the far side with ease.
Performance has never come so easy!
Fast and easy at the same time

High Resistance composite technology is a durable construction for everyday use. A thick, durable outer skin gives the hull maximum strength, as well as making it ding and impact resistant. Strategic use of fibre reinforcements ensure adequate stiffness. In combination with the user-friendly EVA deck, HRS can be seen on the standard Gecko, as well as the Viper / Ripper ranges.

Choose the Blast over the Gecko for:
The Blast rides with a more locked down feel than the Gecko and generally offers a higher level of performance. It accelerates faster, has a better top speed and offers more responsive gybing. The Gecko offers an even easier and more forgiving ride.
Choose the Blast over the Jag for:
The Blast requires less technique to reach its maximum potential and is designed to perform equally well with both rotational and cambered sails. The Blast is easier and less physical to sail than the Jag, with a very controlled, locked in ride and is more forgiving in the gybes.
