THE iSONIC AT A GLANCE

Overall lengths are 3-6cm shorter with new, adapted rockerlines to enhance control – push harder, longer, faster than ever before.

THE iSONIC IN DETAIL

THE NEW iSONIC 85

Improved exit speed, improved acceleration out of jibes, enhanced early-planing performance and top speed thanks to the new two-step cutaway. It is the better overall racing package in lighter wind conditions.

Ready To Foil.

THE NEW iSONIC 77 AND 83

Redesigned from the ground up, the all-new rounder outlines for 77 and 83 improve critical jibing performance. 1cm narrower width at 20cm combined with the larger, two-step cutaways make these boards especially slippery and fast. On the smallest of wetted-surface areas, they deliver more lift and truly fly over the water tracking on just the fin. The biggest performance improvements in the 2020 iSonic collection.

Ready to Foil.

THE NEW iSONIC 72

New two-step cutaways improve the 72’s exit speed and acceleration out of every jibe while early-planing and top speed also gain points. The rails are 5mm boxier from tail to front footstraps, adding volume and leverage to improve performance when paired with an 8.6m2 sail. Performance with a 7.8m2 and 7.0m2 remain perfectly balanced. The result: a benchmark board that increases the lead at every buoy, makes it easier too vertake and maintain maximum performance throughout imperfect conditions.

Ready to Foil.

THE NEW iSONIC 67

Capitalises on the outstanding existing design, the 2020 67 retains the same shape as 2020 in new construction spec.

THE NEW iSONIC 55, 60, 63

These three new models feature an innovative two-step cutaway for improved acceleration, quicker planing and higher top- end speed.

EXTEND YOUR SESSIONS

The iSonic 72, 77, 83 and 85 comes with a Ready to Foil fin box. The box are reinforced to withstand heavier loads associated with foiling. They use thick, high-density PVC sheets and thick carbon fibre walls.

DRAKE SLICK FOOTSTRAPS

The Drake Slick footstraps are made with FSC-certified, sustainably sourced and plant-based Yulex foam. With 85% natural rubber content, CO² emitted during the manufacturing process is reduced by 80%. The remaining 15% of synthetic neoprene is kept to improve UV resistance.

Carefully sourced with the smoothest fabric for a comfortable feel.

The iSonics feature 6mm thick footpads in the tail and 4mm in the front. A combination proven to deliver a highly reactive yet comfortable feel. The diamond grooving pattern provides grip and comfort over extended sessions while being resistant to wear-and-tear.

CARBON REFLEX

THE FLAGSHIP CONSTRUCTION 

The iSonic Carbon Reflex is our flagship range, built to be lightest and fastest.
Decks are built with the lightest grade of biaxial and uni-directional carbon fibre orientated between 45, 30 and 0 degrees for optimized flex and reflex characteristics. The bottom of the boards use an even lighter grade of uni-directional carbon fibre from nose to tail, with an extra 45 degree biaxial carbon layer in the tail area for added torsional stiffness.

CARBON

AVAILABLE EXCLUSIVELY FOR iSONIC

Ultralight weight at a more affordable price and using more environmentally friendly materials. The bottom is built in full T700 uni-directional flat-woven carbon for maximum stiffness while the deck is 60% carbon, alternating between uni-directional and bi-axial carbon layers for optimized flex. The composite sandwich layers include the use of ultra-high density PET and PVC foam.

RIDERS’ COMMENTS

Slide WORLD CHAMPION For 2020 our target was to make the iSonics more user-friendly in strong wind and choppy waters. Our new iSonic 63 is more compact, shorter and has boxier rails to increase comfort on our feet especially while speeding through rough waters. The board keeps the same trim as before in less wind, however entering a strong gust the board has become a lot easier to control due to its length. The shorter length also allows for tighter jibes.

For the medium and light wind boards we wanted to improve that freeness and ‘raily’ feeling, meaning riding high on the water while being in total control.

The 2019 iSonic 72 and 85 were already great boards and it wasn’t easy to improve them, yet we found that the new double cut-away step made the board accelerate quicker with better trim on the water without losing any good qualities. Now hitting the gust the board accelerates even better than before and without extra effort. While passing rolling swells it never touches the water allowing you to fly over it all the time. MATTEO IACHINO Slide DESIGNER To ensure having the leading shape in the segment, we worked with Gonzalo, Matteo and Tristan to deliver the best slalom board possible. This year we implement double cut aways for the iSonic 55 to 85. Exception was the iSonic 67, which remains unchanged, with the reason being we wanted to keep the board flying on the fin with control in whichever conditions. This ultimately brings the fastest speed possible for this size.

For the 55 to 63 we reduced the length, which increased the control massively. You can now stay full power for longer. 77 and 83 are completely new and fully inspired by the iSonic 85 in order to increase speed and performances around the marks. The double cut aways brought the next step for the 85 with amazing acceleration.

Be ready to reach your best performances ever in slalom!!!
REMI VILA Slide FOIL WORLD CHAMPION When I look ahead into the ’20 season I feel very confident knowing that our team will have the best slalom boards on the market. We have worked extensively on every single detail possible to make the 2020 iSonics faster and easier than ever before. On the bigger and mid range we get more acceleration, key at starts and jibes, plus more tracking upwind and an edgy tail feel provided by the double cutaway.
On the high wind range, we developed a super compact, fast and controllable concept that makes any hardcore condition feel flat and easy.
