Xenon HOP 2016

Postby Shimon » Wed Oct 12, 2016 10:06 am

Hey I am thinking about switching to wakestyle board so I could put the boots on. So far I am riding Xenon Laluz and happy about it so I am thinging to stay with xenon brand. Did anyone tried it. What is the pop, landing and edging? My tricks so far are Railey, Rayley to blind, backrool.

Hi Mate,

I've been riding on Xenons for a while now and i have some experience with Xenon HOP as well. Man its a wakestyle BOMB! Very reinforced but still light with loads of explosive pop. Thanks to channels on the bottom You don't have to use fins if You are planning to use it on figures(kickers, sliders). It also fairly goes upwind because of that. You will find a grind base on the bottom so dont hesitate to slide on whatever you want:) There is an oak stringer so inserts are secured from ripping off(2 years warranty including inserts!) Medium to high rocker helps You out with landings - forgive lot of mistakes, especially landing blind.

There is 2 sizes 138 and 141. Let me know Your weight so i could help You choosing right size.

cheers

Hi Mate,

No i don't sell it. Im running a kite school based on Xenons in Poland. For 90kg 141cm will be a better choice. If You have any other questions about the boards let me know.

cheers

141 Thats what I thought. Do You have any other wakestyle boards in school- can You recommend something else? Its good to have a choice between two.
