This board is 24.0”/61.0cm wide. The additional length gives the X-14’ PRO-LITE a sleeker outline while preserving stability. The 14’ PRO-LITE gives racers like Lina Augaitis, Georges Cronsteadt and Sonni Honscheid unmatched acceleration, unrivaled top end speed and maximum glide. Augaitis became the fastest women paddler on earth at the 2014 Lost Mills contest in Germany.

The bottom cross sections allow the racer to get up to top speed quicker and stay at your top speed longer with less effort. The piercing bow design and missile like outline mean the board will continue to accelerate the harder you stroke. The new X-14’ PRO-LITE is designed to put Elite racer ahead of the pack and on top of the podium.

Technology

SCC SINGLE CARBON COMPOSITE

Our SCC +Innegra™ construction is a light weight cnc/eps core with a full wrap biaxial carbon fiber glass internal layer. The SCC also features an Innegra™ tip, rail and tail reinforcement area and 2-Layers of biaxial glass rail reinforcement for extra durability.

This construction also features our ez-grab carry handle and gore-tex breather vent.

This board is a displacement hull board.

DISPLACEMENT HULL
Standard Characteristics: Considered the road bike of the water due to its quick acceleration, efficient glide and top end speed in smooth conditions. Displacement hull boards are easily identifiable by their rounded bottom shape and piercing nose style in the bow. The nose of the board generally is designed to pierce the water, aid in board tracking and cut through chop to reduce drag and promote glide, as well as top end speed. The rocker line is generally flat and the volumes are greater than surf style boards. The added volume allows the board to float higher in the water which reduces drag thereby promoting better glide ratios and unlocks top end speed. Increased volume and width typically provides more stability, especially for heavier paddlers. Conversely, narrower boards are faster but less stable, depending on the paddler’s weight and skill level.
