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.

World Champions: the iSonic 55 prototype was used by Twan Verseput to win the 2018 Speed World Championships

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.

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

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

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.
