The shape is based on the famous BLAST with the planing ingredients of the big EAGLE boards. Now combine this with the same high-end FULL CUSTOM D/LAB construction being used for the FALCON_FIN and there you have it: the BLAST D/LAB is the stiffest, lightest and earliest planing board in its class. In fact the BLAST D/LAB is over a kilo lighter than any other comparable board.The secret to this unrivaled weight to stiffness ratio is our FULL CUSTOM D/LAB construction. This construction follows the same process as high-end custom made boards. Aside from the CNC milled foam core, every board is 100% handmade.But we haven't stopped there yet. With our VOLUME YET CONTROL CONCEPT, the BLAST D/LAB allows you to easily choose a 20-30 liter larger board than other brands without suffering control in overpowered conditions. In fact the BLAST D/LAB can still be controlled even in 30 knots of winds which leads to an unbeatable broad range of use.By gaining some more liters, the board feels more stable underfoot in non-planing conditions, and also gets planing sooner than anyone else without compromising the high-end performance and control. Additionally, due to the thin rails, the BLAST D/LAB can be jibed aggressively in experienced hands but also feels easy and smooth for intermediate riders due to the wide tail. This allows you a steady progression through all levels of the jibing process, without ever “out-growing” the board. And finally, the racier/boxier rails and a further outboard strap position allow the rider to push harder to let the board fly over the fin for increased top speed. The tail cutouts further reduce the drag when going full speed to give you the edge over your friends.If you are looking for a board being completely unique and superior in all aspects from performance to construction the BLAST D/LAB is the ultimate choice for you!
