Best Thruster 6 foot Kite Surf Board - 08 |
The Best Surfboards are designed to make the progression from
twin-tip and flat water to wave-riding as smooth, easy, and as
much fun as possible. The R&D team has spent years circling the
globe chasing waves on every continent to enable them to create
a range of boards that tackle all conditions, from fast-rolling
overhead sets to quick pounding shore breaks.
With metric dimensions of 183.1 x 47.9 x 6.2cm, the Best Surf 60
has more width and more float than the 57, making it more
suitable for beginner to intermediate or heavier riders. If you are
making the progression from twin-tip riding to wave-riding and
want the easiest transition from flat water to surf, then the Best
Surf 60 is the perfect choice.
Designed for charging slower breaks and less steep faces, the
60 has slightly less nose rocker than the 57. With a more
progressive rail transition across the middle third of the board, the
60 also delivers a more stable platform than the 57, but not at
the expense of easy turning and manoeuvrability.
The progressive rail profile on the 60 is perfectly tuned for its intended conditions. Transitioning from soft to
hard around the mid-section of the board, and dropping towards the tail, our progressive rail profile combined
with a subtle bottom concave creates a board with great straight line stability even when cranked over onto the
rail.
Retaining the squash-tail shape of the smaller board, the 60 offers a stable ride, yet still enables the surfboard
to remain loose while serving up hugely powerful bottom turns. The squash-tail is a great tail shape for any
standard of surfer, can be used in both small and overhead waves, and gives great handling when ridden as a
directional as you head out to the line-up.
The Best Surf 60 uses the latest seamless board construction, with a micro-fine matt surface finish that sheds
water like sharkskin, minimizing drag and maximizing board efficiency. Our 3-section EVA deck pad system
gives you support and control where you need it, with a raised heel section kickpad for throwing down those
explosive snaps.
A Thruster set up gives the optimum mix of traction, drive and flow. Fin rake and profile have been
meticulously tuned for the boards intended conditions, while still allowing the Best Surf to be easy and
predictable in flatter water and on the face of faster sets. The Thruster layout increases the board's ability to
change direction quickly without losing speed, allowing you to stay on that wave all the way to the beach.
If you already have great kitesurfing ability and are looking for a Thoroughbred wave-riding board for all-round
conditions, then the Best Thruster 60 will be your perfect choice.
