Damien’s comments: "The floater is a great wave board for crappy on-shore European wave conditions. It makes these places the ultimate for freeriding as you can have the feeling of a surf board due to the rails as well as have the freedom of the twin tip to switch from regular to goofy foot any time you need. Also, compared to square-railed boards, you keep control of your board throughout the top turn thanks to the real surf rails. During the bottom turn you can actually put real pressure on your front foot to "wet" the rail without going under the water."
In comparison to other kiteboards, the Floater has:
A lower, flatter rocker line for early planing and ripping top speed. Superior control from greater amounts of bottom shaping with a single to double concave bottom to step tip. Moderate outline curve and fin position for balanced power. Significantly more thickness and volume, less flex and much fuller, rounder rails allow pressure to be transferred from front foot to back and rail to rail for the reliable, seamless handling essential to high-speed freestyle and wave riding.
