PSYCHO _FREESTYLE
The Psycho uses modern design concepts to go faster, pop higher, and spin quicker. The new Psycho offers a package containing the best elements of previous models and new innovative features.
Narrower widths with parallel rails increase efficiency for faster top-end speeds and instant acceleration. Reduced lengths in combination with a tuned up rocker make the Psycho functionally compact for faster, controlled rotation.
Developed in conjunction with former freestyle world champ Dieter van der Eyken, the design focused on maximising speed for bigger moves. The highly refined design makes this performance easily accessible to any freestyler. Out-of-the-box instant functionality.
Specific freestyle features include ultra short length and reduced nose volume for reduced swing weight and controlled rotation, footstraps angled for easier switch stance access, and double plugged rear and front straps to prevent twisting and handle higher loads. Dual density pads offer a soft landing after each air move.
If you want to take your freestyle to the next level, go Psycho.

TECHNOLOGY
PARALLEL OUTLINE
The parallel outline decreases drag and increases stability. Overall width is reduced which helps give the boards a smaller, more manoeuvrable feel.
HIGH SPEED ROCKER LINE
Fast, low drag rocker to maximise top end speed for big moves. The entry rocker has been tuned for the lowest possible angle of attack for maximum acceleration and nose landing manoeuvres.
PERFORMANCE CONTOURS
Minimal V throughout aids sliding and rotation reduces drag and stabilises the board during switch stance setup.
FREESTYLE STRAP POSITIONING
Narrower 140mm spacing for better control and more side support.
50-degree front strap angle allows easier access during switch stance setup.
Double plugged rear straps to prevent twisting and handle higher loads.
FULL POWER RAIL DESIGN
High volume, square edges through the tail maximise power and lift for instant acceleration and explosive pop.
Forward rails feature a high apex and increased tuck to prevent catching during sliding moves and to increase the hit rate of landed moves.
DYNAMIC VOLUME DISTRIBUTION
Reduced volume in the nose for reduced swing weight and faster, more controlled rotation.
Increased volume in the stance area amplifies pop and early planning.
HEX 4
A single tool does everything.
1. Batten tension adjustment.
2. Fin screws (both SlotBox and PowerBox).
3. Footstrap installation.
4. Beer opener.
The HEX4 tool is supplied with every sail and every board. Compared to a Philips screwdriver, the 4mm hex key is a much easier system to tighten and adjust footstraps and fins. It only requires a rotational movement rather than downforce + rotation. The wide boomerang gives enough leverage to fully tighten footstraps with a fraction of the effort of a Philips screwdriver.
