MAKE YOUR RIDE COME ALIVE

The Pure Acids are the aggressive wave boards for riders who want speed, power and drive. They are rated as the fastest and the best waveboard for the front-foot driven rider by German Surf. They mix aggression and speed with a natural carving instinct using a wave shape that integrates a fast rockerline and the spiraling vee concept. Pin-point precision, a sharp, direct and engaging ride is what the Pure Acid delivers. Big waves, onshore, sideshore - the Pure Acids perform in a wide variety of conditions when the wind gets howling. No waves? The Pure Acids' speed and maneuverability mix make it the ideal highwind crossover board: "Absolutely recommended as a highwind freerider and small freestyler." German Surf, January 2007.


Wind magazine awarded the Pure Acid 74 the TOP CHOICE label in its March 2007 test: "You get an excellent grip, lots of stability and balance in the bottom-turn. Rail-to-rail is instantaneous with complete fluidity, it's a machine to make cut-backs that carves well and throws lots of spray. In side offshore conditions, it's a down-the-line jet. More accessible than the Goya, Quatro, JP and RRD. Better in side onshore than the others yet an amazing surfing potential in perfect conditions.

+ Early planing, fluidity in the surf, versatility, radicality/accessibility ratio"

  • Aggressive wave boards
  • Fast rockers
  • "Spiraling Vee" bottom shape

Compared to the Evo range, the Pure Acids deliver more hard-edged carving incisiveness combined with more classic rail-to-rail waveriding performance.

The Evos are more suitable as a board to wave-ride in a wider variety of wave conditions. The Evos also have a different style: more fl owing, more fl uid and keen on big, tweaked aerials.

Compared to the Kombat range, the Pure Acids are more highwind orientated with volumes that only go up to 86 litres. The Kombat range starts at 79 litres. They are one-board crossover solutions for freestyling, fl at-water blasting and waveriding. They would be more suitable for sailors who do not only wave-ride or windsurf in highwind conditions but also enjoy freeriding and freestyling in a variety of conditions.
