EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THIS:
Windsurf board
Find the ideal board for every requirement.
Whether you're looking for an adrenaline rush at full speed or relaxed surfing, choosing the right windsurf board is crucial. Our board guide is designed to help you make the right decision:
Which shape and volume are right for me?
Is the carbon version the right choice?
And what is the difference between a freeride and a freerace board?
To give you a brief initial overview: A Shape Describes the shape of the board. For example, whether it is a wave or slalom board.
The volume indicates how much buoyancy the board has, measured in liters. More on that later...
Windsurf board designs:
Over the years, various designs for windsurf boards have been developed. The decisive factor is always the proportion of wood, epoxy and carbon.
The main difference is primarily in weight. Between the different designs, this can amount to a difference of up to 2 kilograms for larger boards.
A particularly high proportion of carbon ensures that the board is significantly lighter, but also more expensive. It is always necessary to weigh up whether the lower weight is worth the additional price.
The difference may not be so significant, especially for beginners and advanced windsurfers. On the water, the difference only becomes apparent with advanced riding skills. Due to their low weight, the lighter windsurf boards glide faster and are more agile overall, as they are also stiffer.
Beginner Boards
The perfect choice for your first season.
If you're a beginner, we recommend choosing a beginner's board.
These boards are characterized by their wide, long design, which provides excellent stability. Rather than highlighting your mistakes, a good beginner’s board can significantly speed up your learning process in the early days. Beginner’s boards are available with a center fin or a centerboard. This stabilizing feature in the middle of the board prevents drifting and provides additional stability.
As a general rule of thumb for volume: Your body weight (kg) + 50–100 liters = Recommended board volume. After their first few experiences, many riders find themselves wanting an agile freeride board. Smaller beginner boards with retractable centerboards often have similar characteristics to larger freeride boards.
If you plan to spend a lot of time on the water early on, you should opt for a slightly smaller beginner’s board that will also be suitable for freeriding later on. But keep in mind: the smaller the windsurfing board, the less stable it becomes.
Freeride Boards
The go-to category for hours of driving fun.
The first jibes are under control! Next up: speed duels, early planing, and the water start.
You can experience all of this with a freeride board—the perfect second board for any surfing enthusiast. But even advanced surfers and pros rely on freeride boards, especially when heading out onto calm inland waters without big waves.
These boards are forgiving when you make mistakes and offer good uphill performance.
Depending on your skill level, beginners are recommended to choose a board with a volume of about 60–90 liters more than their body weight. For advanced riders, a volume of about 20–50 liters more is usually sufficient.
Freestyle Boards
The ideal windsurfing board for perfect turns.
These boards are designed to enable quick turns and jumps on flat water. The board's light, rounded edges make it easier to initiate maneuvers.
Freestyle boards are extremely responsive and agile, and even the slightest movement can change the direction of travel. These boards are typically equipped with thick, soft foot straps and a central strap position.
A distinctive feature of freestyle boards is their extra-thick tail, which provides plenty of buoyancy and allows the boards to plane quickly. The optimal volume depends on the rider’s weight, with most boards having a volume between 85 and 110 liters. Ideal for those who frequently ride in flat water and want to perform more than just simple direction changes in the “power jibe” style.
Wave Boards
For riding the wave—the waveboard
Radical jumps and maneuvering in the waves: these are the hallmarks of a waveboard.
The shape of the boards allows for tight turns in the wave. There are boards with single, twin, thruster, and quad—Fins Setup, meaning with one, two, three, or even four Fins. The various fin options have different advantages and disadvantages.
Depending on the conditions and your weight, boards with a volume between 75 and 100 liters are recommended. Larger boards are better suited for smaller waves or flat water areas in very strong winds. The smaller sizes are designed for big waves and aggressive riding.
Most manufacturers offer a variety of waveboards, ranging from radical, compact models to all-around boards. It’s best to try them out to see which model feels best in your local conditions.
Slalom Boards
The fastest boards in the windsurfing scene.
Maximum speed is the primary focus for all shapes in this board class. These boards are designed to reach the finish line at maximum speed, with maneuverability and comfort taking a back seat.
Race and slalom boards are typically characterized by a wide tail and a flat bottom. They are ridden with a longer carbon fin.
