SMALL WAVE | FREESTYLE
And now please meet the Badger. This compact shape bridges the gap between the
720 and the Ripper. With a lot of volume in the nose and a fish tail, the Badger was
specially developed for surfing in rather small (wind) swell and also has an extremely
high freestyle suitability. The brand-new construction of an XPS core and Glass-Soric
sandwich is impregnated by infusion - this is unique and guarantees excellent
strength of the board. We are looking forward to get some feedback from the scene.
