40 years with a Blast! We celebrate 40 years of Fanatic with the return of some of our iconic graphics on special editions of our most successful shapes - like the Ultra Blast Rat Edition.
"The parallel rails allow the water to flow free of turbulences allowing great acceleration, top speed and easy gybing characteristics.
Just like its Mamba Wave siblings, the narrower width compared to equivalent freeride boards gives the Blast an increased level of efficiency. The wider nose and pulled in tail offer blistering acceleration, but also a stable platform to drive from, giving you tons of speed and control over chop. Push as gentle or as hard as you want in the corners, the Blast responds immediately keeping the speed right through the gybe, with ease.
Performance has never been so easy!"
- wide tail and nose - The wide tail and nose make the Blast a very stable platform when off the plane
- Stable ride - At speed the ride is locked in, very stable and comfortable
- thin rails - Can be gybed aggressively in experienced hands thanks to the thin rails, but also very easily for less experienced riders due to the wide tail
- Parallel outline - Amazing acceleration from the wide tail and low drag characteristics of the parallel rails
- Equally comfortable with rotational or camber induced rigs
- Foil use - Tuttle Box for strength and approved for foil use in all sizes
- Footpad - Grippy and shock absorbing dual density diamond grooving footpads
- Footstraps - Comfortable and easy to adjust Fanatic footstraps
High Resistance composite technology is a durable construction for everyday use. A thick, durable outer skin gives the hull maximum strength, as well as making it ding and impact resistant. Strategic use of fibre reinforcements ensure adequate stiffness. In combination with the user-friendly EVA deck, HRS can be seen on the standard Gecko, as well as the Viper / Ripper ranges.
