GREAT SENSATION
Easy-going medium to high wind freemove boards for freeriding and bump & jump blasting. They excel in manoeuvres and they willingly plane through the gybe with speed. Ideal for high wind freeride windsurfing on fresh water as well as on the sea.
Year two and the revolution of the requirements in the free move segment caused by the Magic Move continues. These boards target riders seeking a 90 to 110 L sporty board for easy and early planing. This dynamic design offers an exhilarating ride, excelling in speed and maneuverability. It is the new ‚Master of the Carve‘ for sporty and aggressive jibes and to play in small swell. It is great for riding open ocean swells and can even tackle reef and coastal waves, it remains unstoppable. This year, shaper Werner Gnigler’s praise for the board’s versatility and comfort is echoed by many enthusiastic owners and riders: “Planing jibes and effortless planing guaranteed!”
The Magic Move is more than only a small Freeride board. It better is compared to the Freestyle Wave than pure freeride designs, which are usually larger and designed for lighter wind and flat water. Therefore, it stands proudly next to the Freestyle Wave as its powerful brother.
The Magic Move supports riders when it matters: Thanks to its wider tail, it planes earlier and easier than the Freestyle Wave. It stays on the plane when the wind is fluky and takes more speed through planing manoeuvres. And it is clearly more manoeuvrable and feels more at home in swell than previous small JP freeride designs.
Consequently Werner used the Freestyle Waves as his starting point for development and adapt a few parameters to achieve the desired improvements. Here they are…
Shape details:
Compared to our Freestyle Wave line the Magic Moves are slightly longer, wider and equipped with a noticeably wider tail with additional volume. The outline in the mid-section of the board is kept rather parallel, offering a wide planing surface. This in combination with the even volume distribution makes the shapes very stable when non-planing and lifts the rider onto the plane effortlessly with almost no pumping needed.
A unique design feature of these boards is the refined new rail shape: Lifting the apex point along the midsection towards the nose creates the extra required lift. This helps tremendously to maintain speed during the jibe and exit with speed.
The Step Rail
Towards the tail the rail shape tapers down and finishes off with a noticeable step rail. This feature allows the use of a wider tail with sufficient volume and still guarantees optimal grip and bite in tight turns when hitting white-water.
The shapes use a flat scoop rocker line designed for early planing and high speed. The pronounced double concave V in the front works like suspension when hitting chop.
Reducing the V towards the area between the foot straps and increasing it again towards the tail disconnects the rail shape from the centre scoop rocker line. This also supports the outstanding mix of performance and manoeuvrability.
The Magic Moves are equipped with various foot strap options and a single fin Powerbox for the perfect customizable set up.
The boards’ Freestyle Wave fins feature a lot of area at the tip, a curvy outline and a smooth, swept back rake angle. Thus, the fin provides a lot of drive and a secure, steady ride in combination with outstanding manoeuvrability.
Summing it up, the boards plane earlier than Freestyle Wave boards and are much better at taking speed through the jibe and staying on the plane during turns. Compared to freeride boards they are more versatile and loose, thus livelier and more fun.
