Featured Custom Pro Builds
wakeboard manufacturers
Two friends shared a common love around technology, time-tested design, and the great outdoors. We started building. Injecting a fresh aesthetic with a fun DIY ethos, a brand was born. A motley crew of wakeboard manufacturers, designers, and blue collar work ethic.
5 years in, we built the only high production, direct-to-consumer 'in-house' wakeboard manufacturing operation in the USA. In today's world of cheap offshore manufacturing, wakeboard manufacturing in the USA is no small feat. We have complete control over manufacturing processes, space age materials and first-to-market technologies. Using the latest innovations in tech, we're bringing you the best of both worlds. Both sides can win.
We've pioneered a bit since our all wood wakeboards were first released. Here's a few we're most proud of.
The Frontier of wakeboard manufacturers
technology
Here’s a secret not many wakeboard manufacturers care to share. Almost all wakeboards are made in the same large scale factory using the same process. They are built with cheap labor and materials. Most wakeboard manufacturers product functions for little beyond the time it leaves the shelf. Why should you care? The technical jargon doesn’t result in more fun or better performance for you – the rider. We take a more progressive approach. We believe you can do more with less and offer the best value among wakeboard manufacturers by using the highest quality technology among wakeboard manufacturers.
Whatever wakeboard you decide to buy, take note of the following. Material and design innovations matter.
Quantum Cores
The highest quality wood among wakeboard manufacturers is Paulownia Wood. Quantum Cores are engineered for flex, snap, and longevity vs other foam or multi-composite core counterparts. Each core is built with three vertical 100% Paulownia segments joined together side by side. Each of our Quantum Core blanks are milled in this specific '3 ply' layup. The result? The most durable and lively core pattern among wakeboard manufacturers. Quantum Core blanks are Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified.

Sculpted Sidewalls
Precisely machined arcs and contours milled into durable UHMW material inject our wakeboards with a dose of herculean strength. You'll see increased impact protection and weight reduction. It also looks nice. Your wakeboard is officially 'on the juice.'
Find it on:
Ghost Stringers
Our most technical and stealthy innovation to date. Ghost Stringers are powerful triangular wood reinforcements precisely milled into each wakeboard's wood core. The triangular stringers are secured in place using a special fiberglass layup. We then press the stringers into the core of the wakeboard. The result is a lively snappy response through the centerline of each wakeboard. This results in super smooth landings with zero added weight. A first among wakeboard manufacturers.

Sintered Die-Cut Bases
The highest quality Ultra High Molecular Weight (UHMW) sintered bases we could get our human hands on. By using a die-cut process for the first time in wakeboard manufacturing [like piecing together a puzzle], we have eliminated the use of printing inks which reduces weight & waste. Each base is finished with exact tolerances and offers a consistent and smooth feel on cable park features.

Paulownia Woodland icore
The core is really just that, the heart & soul of a board. It determines many of the riding characteristics before we start experimenting with different layups and space age materials. All our cores are vertically laminated, sustainably raised and harvested with FSC certified Paulownia Woodland i-Cores. We use a full wood core because of it's consistent energy, snappy response, and unsurpassed durability. The Paulownia Woodland i-Core produces lively pop season after season.

M6 Inserts | 5 or 7 Pack
M6 is a metric measurement that offers tighter tolerances and strong interface between board and binding systems. Our Hexagon shaped custom M6 inserts are molded with ribbed sections significantly increasing insert strength by up to 150%. This offers a simple steadfast solution to fine tune your stance with small half inch adjustments.
