A Big Winds’ staff favorite. The wave board of choice for advanced riders to lay tracks, throw buckets, and boost big.
RADICAL WAVE
Best for: wave riding
Sizes: 68 / 75 / 82 / 86 / 92 / 102
The highly adaptable Grip TE windsurfing board enables you to ride your wave – your way, without compromise. Fast and loose, the entire range has been re-shaped for 2020 to help you unleash your potential, no matter where you wavesail.
This year’s board achieves the ultimate goal: vastly improved waveriding performance, without sacrificing any of the accessibility, speed and early planing.
Through subtle changes to the outline, tail width and bottom shape, the new Grip TE offers a new level of looseness and control – particularly in down the line conditions.
In short, it’s the most versatile wave board we’ve ever produced.
