The favourite board of World Champion Victor Fernandez, you’re going to love this red hot performance stick too.
Set your Grip and rip! PWA Wave World Champion Victor Fernandez sealed the deal in 2016 with the exact same shape of the new Grip under his feet. His impressive sailing in the Canary Islands, North Sea and Maui saw him deliver the goods in everything from onshore, to down-the-line conditions.
Finely tuned over a period of over two years, the Grip has the planing power of the previous TriWave and turning capabilities beyond the 2017 Quad.
Customise the amount of grip you want through your fins.
The small 68 comes with a grippy and controlled Quad setup.
The floaty 99 has a loose and early planing Thruster set.
The 3 medium sizes are equipped with the adaptable 5 Box feature, giving you the freedom to setup your Grip however you like.
From back to front foot riding, intermediate to World Champ level, the carefree and intuitive Grip is designed to follow your lead.
The Fanatic Stubby represents the benchmark of a new style of windsurf shapes
– Super compact parallel rail concept 
– Reduced swing weight
– Easy and controlled
– Slashy and snappy surf style
– Easy wave manoeuvres
– Incredible upwind ability !
Radical looking yet super easy to use, it surprises with speed, planing stability and a different sensation in the waves. This year the line got extended to four shapes from 76l to 99l.
Excited? You should be. Fanatic introduced this exciting parallel rail concept with its super compact length into the windsurfing world in early 2015, after a secret and intense year of R&D.
Soon the market followed and jumped on the train, but the success and feedback on the fully developed, finely tuned Stubby showed that this was something people wanted!
Everything is easy on the Stubby; speed and early planing, control and slashy turns. Its characteristics open up the potential to learn all of the latest moves, and with a new sensation for almost every style of wave conditions it has an incredibly wide range of use.
Try it to believe it, then you’ll realise what all the fuss is about!
The FreeWave STB is the innovative design that has replaced the 10 year success story of the classic Fanatic FreeWave.
