A best seller, and for good reason. A one-board answer for free-riding, bump and jump and waves, as well as intermediate to expert riders. Planes early, easily, with a great mix of speed and maneuverability. The 2021 Fanatic FreeWave TE features lightweight and strong Team Edition construction.
An evolution of the Stubby outline blended with our legendary FreeWave DNA, the FreeWave is the true chameleon – ready to adapt and excel in all conditions.
Last season we took our low-drag FreeWave STB concept a step further and refined the nose and pulled in the tail shape, resulting in increased control and manoeuvrability that rivals any classic waveboard on the wave face. That left room to increase planing power through its rocker line, making the range clearly the most powerful FreeWave of all times!
From flatwater blasting to bump & jump to waves, the FreeWave is the one board that takes it all in its stride, and will boost your level across a bigger range of conditions than ever.
