Skate TE
Style with attitude
Sizes: 85 / 91 / 99 / 108
The Skate has shaped the past, present and future of modern freestyle windsurfing.
For 2023, the shape of our dedicated freestyle board has been specially adapted to the demands of the latest progressive freestyle moves in the new size of 91l – the go-to size for our teamriders in most conditions.
With a compact length of only 216cm and a finely tuned tail shape for fastest acceleration and a livelier and quicker reaction, the new 91l version is the most compact and radical freestyle board we ever made.
The Skate TE delivers explosive acceleration and top speed, leading to massive pop for dizzying spins & rotations. The compact shape ensures you can land the move in complete control, ready to turn or pop again.
The low nose is forgiving for sliding moves, while the powerful tail ensures you maintain speed while going switch or hunting down your next stunt ramp.
The Skate TE is available in our unique Biax Innegra Carbon Light Finish technology - the ultimate construction for all our Wave and Freestyle TE boards and 4 sizes: 85, 91, 99 and 108. .
It comes with a Power Box for maximum durability in shallow waters and is approved for foil use in all sizes.
Shaped for zero compromise, the Skate TE will take you to the next level, no matter what your goals are. Rotate, slide, rinse & repeat – the water is your skatepark.

Choose the Skate TE over the FreeWave TE for:
Out-and-out freestyle moves. Whether learning your first Vulcan or spinning double Air Culos, you will learn quicker, be more consistent and execute with more style on the Skate. Whilst still great for jumping, if carving, blasting and waveriding are high on your agenda you may be better choosing the FreeWave TE!
