Enata Red Rocket Foil Board

Does the glans help improve performance or is it just to grab attention? :naughty:

Did Maxime do the design as a parting gift? :lol:

I will take notice when people on any new fad start overtaking Nico Parlier.

Until then, it looks like a condom on the tip of a penis that hasn't been rolled down yet.

I can understand the desire to put more volume in the nose so the board has some buoyancy given how short/narrow it is, but yeah, definitely looks like a dogdick.

Haha, just for some technical info though:

The bottom lip is designed to help when hitting the water. It creates a gap of air allowing for the board to bounce off the water instead of going in. The extra volume of the nose is designed for aerodynamics and helps with preventing the board from going in the water in a head-on collision. It also includes spray rails to redirect the spray away from the rider when hitting the water on the sides.

I think ENATA is Spanish for Dogdick 8)

Very cool, glad to see you guys addressing board design and not just hydrofoil/kite.
