The “BEE STING”. One of my favorite in the waves. I put a stinger notch just behind the side fins and then a round tail. I did this to prevent slippage while speed tracking, but as a result it is sooo loose when surfing waves. Same bottom and design features as the other kiteboards, just the tail is different. I cant say enough about this board, it RIPS! Strapped or strapless…

I found you somewhere on the web. I would never buy a “brand name board” knowing that I can get this one instead!! GREAT WORK!!! I own a kite school in the florida keys http://www.kiteboardkeywest.com and I also teach in Michigan in the summer. I carry Liquid Force gear but have a huge need for surf boards. Our wave size in MI is usually 6 to 8 on a 20knt day. a lot of 30 plus days in spring and fall with overhead conditions. I am 6’6 and 250lbs so I will need a Larger board. do you epoxy? I have cracked boards in half on jumps with my weight
Jake, thanks for the inquiry. Right now i am sticking with traditional P.U. boards as we are a small operation here. I have had good results with P.U. nonetheless…I use US Blanks green foam with a 3/16″ stringer and beef up the glass for strapless boards, and US Blanks Classic foam for the strapped. One of the local guys here has a 5’11” 18 1/2″ 23/8″ kite rocket and he matches your weight but only 6’2″ so far he is very happy and board is still in one piece. did a 6/4 bottom with 6/4/4 deck came in weighing right around 7lbs. I’ve seen epoxy boards break so it really comes down to construction. All my boards are handshaped wich keeps the blank stronger.
