WAVE MACHINE

Static waves

Even though we have the Basque coastline on our doorstep, we’re as stoked as anyone about the growing inland surf scene. Which is why Mikel has developed a board especially for powerful static waves – Munich’s Eisbach, Citywave’s and similar wave pools are good examples – called the Wave Machine. Featuring fuller, soft rails for extra volume and easy handling, this board combines a medium rocker with a soft single concave to V at the tail that’s been perfectly adapted to the unique fluid dynamics of a static wave. Squash and Diamond tail options offer plenty of release: perfect for tail blows and other radical moves.
