  • VERSATILITY

    The Albatros 4.2 has been improved for easier take offs.

    This revisited shape allows early take offs in light winds as well as enhanced control in rough conditions.

  • rails 118, 98, 78

    Progressive bevels, absorbing all touch downs and neutralizing any imbalance.
    The reduction of the wetted surface on the rear area allows the board to take off from the water instinctively and nearly effortless .

  • rails 58

    The widened back surface of the board offers substantial stability when landing jumps.

    The bevels on the front area absorb touch downs shocks and are super forgiving on spinning tricks ending.

  • VOLUME

    The balance point is thought through to guarantee a top-notch stability at low speed before take off and a maximum reduced inertia of movement once in the air.

  • bottom

    All the hulls are optimised with a single concave on the front for an explosive takeoff or relaunch after touch downs.

  • rocker

    The new rocker has been re-tensioned. Now combined with the single concave hull, it gives an instinctive feeling of ease during takeoff.
    You save energy for extended sessions on the water.

  • Deck shape

    Lowered deck with concave shape for improved stability and responsiveness when riding the board.
    Rounded top rail for better volume distribution and stronger mechanical resistance.

  • new outline

    The outline has been reworked with two principles in mind: keeping the width where it was needed for outstanding stability at standstill, and lightening the front part of the board. 
    Once in the air, the feeling of having a smaller board under your feet is bluffing.

  • Foil boxes

    The new foil boxes are made of ultra-strong glass fibers reinforced polymer.

    315mm long and provide a wide range of adjustment options for any kind of foils and riders preferences.

  • Surf strap option (58, 78)

    Central position of the front strap for surfing.
