MAKE YOUR RIDE COME ALIVE
The Pure Acids are the aggressive wave boards for riders who want
speed, power and drive. They are rated as the fastest and the best
waveboard for the front-foot driven rider by German Surf. They mix
aggression and speed with a natural carving instinct using a wave
shape that integrates a fast rockerline and the spiraling vee
concept. Pin-point precision, a sharp, direct and engaging ride is
what the Pure Acid delivers. Big waves, onshore, sideshore - the
Pure Acids perform in a wide variety of conditions when the wind
gets howling. No waves? The Pure Acids' speed and maneuverability
mix make it the ideal highwind crossover board: "Absolutely
recommended as a highwind freerider and small freestyler." German
Surf, January 2007.
Wind magazine awarded the Pure Acid 74 the TOP CHOICE label in its
March 2007 test: "You get an excellent grip, lots of stability and
balance in the bottom-turn. Rail-to-rail is instantaneous with
complete fluidity, it's a machine to make cut-backs that carves well
and throws lots of spray. In side offshore conditions, it's a
down-the-line jet. More accessible than the Goya, Quatro, JP and RRD.
Better in side onshore than the others yet an amazing surfing
potential in perfect conditions.
+ Early planing, fluidity in the surf, versatility, radicality/accessibility
ratio"

Compared to the Evo range, the Pure Acids deliver more hard-edged
carving incisiveness combined with more classic rail-to-rail
waveriding performance.
The Evos are more suitable as a board to wave-ride in a wider
variety of wave conditions. The Evos also have a different style:
more fl owing, more fl uid and keen on big, tweaked aerials.
Compared to the Kombat range, the Pure Acids are more highwind
orientated with volumes that only go up to 86 litres. The Kombat
range starts at 79 litres. They are one-board crossover solutions
for freestyling, fl at-water blasting and waveriding. They would be
more suitable for sailors who do not only wave-ride or windsurf in
highwind conditions but also enjoy freeriding and freestyling in a
variety of conditions. |
