Nouveau boîtier US en carbone moulé

Les Glide V3 sont équipées de notre nouveau boîtier US en carbone moulé, développé en interne par Takoon. Grâce à leur rigidité incomparable, ces nouveaux boitiers apportent une connexion au foil inégalée, une parfaite transmission des efforts et un feeling sans pareil.

Nos nouveaux box de foil sont fabriquées en carbone préimprégné, polymérisé à haute pression et haute température dans un moule en acier. Ce processus permet d’obtenir un boîtier avec des fibres longues de carbone bien compactés, ce qui le rend tout simplement indestructible et ultra rigide.

Grâce à cette construction, si l’on compare nos boitiers carbone aux boitiers classiques comme les Futures, le gain de rigidité et de robustesse est considérable. En effet, généralement fabriqués en plastique injecté chargé avec de la fibre de verre en fibres courtes, les boitiers classiques peuvent présenter de la déformation à l’effort. Sur l’eau, cela se ressent sous forme d’un temps de latence dans la réactivité du foil, que ce soit pour le pumping, pour carver, ou pour les manœuvres. Avec nos nouveaux boîtiers carbone, la transmission des efforts est instantanée et la connexion est ultra rigide.

Plus longs, ces nouveaux boitiers donnent beaucoup plus de liberté de placement de votre foil. Ils viennent en 2 tailles: 33 cm et 38 cm en fonction de la taille de la planche. Ils sont ainsi plus longs de 6 cm et 11 cm que les boîtiers futurs. Ainsi, vous pourrez affiner vos réglages, afin de trouver la position personnelle qui vous convient le plus.

Ils bénéficient aussi d’une double ouverture par rails pour un montage plus rapide : plus besoin de démonter entièrement vos boulons de la platine, il suffit simplement de desserrer les vis, de faire glisser le foil dans les ouvertures et de resserrer les vis et hop, le tour est joué.

Presentation

The Tiki California will be more wave oriented while keeping what makes the success of the Tiki.

The Malibu-style tail and nose have been refined. It has a light rocker that will allow you to obtain more maneuverability in tacking with comfort always at the top and a very effective upwind.

It has a V-shaped hull to promote water flow, which will limit vibrations and improve glide and comfort.

Like the Tiki Classic, the California will be a formidable weapon for light winds with a planned start of 8 knots of wind. It will behave just as well in 30 knots and its design will allow you to learn and push your limits in surfing in small to medium wave conditions.

Its look is inspired by the Californian surfboards of the 60s.

It is easy to access even for people who have never done strapless. Once the optimal position has been found according to your size, the Tiki California glides over the water with elegance and finesse.

In conclusion: the Tiki California will be very comfortable in the waves. A very playful board which will therefore be a little more manageable and lively than the Classic Tiki.

Features

Shape

The rocker and hull shape incorporate scoop and concaves inspired by traditional surfboards, offering smooth and fluid transitions. Its shape allows for increased glide speed, ideal for linking turns or playing in moderate to strong winds.

Construction

The choice of paulownia is also driven by its natural qualities: it's ultra-light, which enhances planing and maneuverability. It's also strong and flexible, capable of absorbing shocks, withstanding saltwater, and softening choppy water. Finally, it's a material with low environmental impact.
