The DEMENTED series
Darin Shapiro’s name is synonymous with the sport of wakeboarding. It is with this in mind that it is appropriate that Darin have a board that compliments his style on the water.

“One of my favourite things about the Demented is that it has the ability to track really well on those hard fast edges. At the same time you don't have to think twice about breaking the fins loose whenever you want. It is super stable; it will carve rail to rail better than anything I have ridden. If you get the chance, look closely at this board. I can honestly say that I am proud of this design.” - Darin Shapiro

With a progressive rocker, the Demented is not only fast but has an explosiveness off the wake that has riders going bigger than they ever thought they could. Darin and O’Brien have widened the tip/tail and mid section of the board. They have done this while keeping the edge to edge characteristics like that of a narrower board. The Demented also boasts an elevated composite exoskeleton for strength, lighter weight, and responsiveness.

The VALHALLA series

An idea that came to fruition, the Valhalla incorporates one of the most radical ideas in wakeboarding. Four aluminium removable Crook fins in each corner of the board are out of the way when you do not need them and when on edge they bite like no other! While the board is flat, the rocker allows the Crook fins to be out of the water giving it a loose feel. The Valhalla has a variable-bevelled edge which is soft in the mid section for a floaty feel when flat and a smooth ride in choppy conditions. The dual moulded fins have a refined profile for minimal lift and drag. The Valhalla has a progressive rocker for the consistency of a continuous rocker and the pop of a 3-

stage rocker. It also has a wide tip and tail for a strong riding platform and added pop off the wake. This board will not only send you hurling off the wake, but with a double concave hull makes for softer landings. The composite deck adds strength as well as reduces weight.

The CLUTCH series
Cobe Mikacich could be the hardest working man in wakeboarding. Between his national “I Ride Tour” in The summers and his gruelling boat show schedule in the winters, Cobe seems to be everywhere Cobe has riding down to a science with his super clean riding and stylely grabs. The Clutch Series boards are made to fit Cobe’s technical demands.

“The board is designed to be more user friendly than any other board. It has a great tail, which allows me to ollie much higher and press off the tail through the top of the wake giving me more air. The Clutch is definitely the most predictable board I have ever ridden!” -Cobe Mikacich

The Clutch Series has Cobe’s signature super clean mid section and a fast 3-Stage rocker for killer pop. The board also has four very strong moulded in fins that run out the tip/tail of the board for an extremely clean ride with incredible tracking control. It also has cupped rails to hold a strong edge into the wake. The Clutch can be ridden with a centre fin for a rock solid feel, or without for a looser skatie feel.

The PLAYER series
Daniel Watkins, one of those dodgy Aussie blokes, he and the mad scientists here created his signature board back in 2003, The Player. Since then, they both have taken on the world! Winning back to back Australian Pro Tours, and killing it here in the states, Daniel has shown he was born to be on the water. His ferocity of which he throws his double back off the double up coupled with his super clean style shows what the marriage of an incredible rider and board can produce.

“I am stoked on my 2005 Player board! It has moulded fins which help me track on the way to the wake and a sweet double concave base to make the landings super smooth. I like to ride my board finless; I designed it to be ridden this way. The Player also comes with fins for a super steady ride. Ride the Player and you won't regret it!” -Daniel Watkins

The Player Series has proven to be one of our most popular shapes to date. The Player has an aggressive 3-stage rocker and a fat mid section giving it an incredible explosion off the wake. With 8 moulded in fins for incredible tracking, the Player can be ridden with a centre fin for a rock solid feel, or finless for a looser skatie feel. The Player delivers incredible edge hold with its cupped rails.

The VISION series
Josh Sanders, another dodgy Aussie, has been travelling the globe for 7 years now! Josh has ridden in virtually every water way imaginable. From monstrous tow-ins in Tahiti, pristine lakes in the Swiss Alps, to the lakes of Florida, Josh is a professional in every aspect. His riding is technical; he trains hard, plays hard and works even harder.

“I wanted my board to feel floaty and smooth while keeping it responsive. It tracks well in both smooth and rough water. The Vision has a double to single concave hull for soft landings and killer tracking. The tip/tail shape and the moulded in fins of this board help the board track all the way off the wake, making them the last thing to leave the wake which maximizes your air time.”- Josh Sanders

The Vision has won a lot of fans in the couple years the shape has been out. The Vision has a double concave hull for softer landings, and four fins for incredible stability and tracking. The Vision has a wide mid section giving this board a ton of pop off the wake. The vented tips give the Vision a clean release off the wake and the bevelled edges help smooth out the way it rides in choppy conditions. This board rolls onto edge quickly and is very fast into the wake for one of the best feeling boards out there.

The vented channels running out the tip/tail of the board allow the dual moulded fins to track through the water eliminating any lift. The Oasis also has cupped rails giving you incredible edge hold while cutting into the wake. This board rolls from edge to edge smoothly for a super responsive feel to it.

We added an inner neoprene material on the toe and heel to give a more comfortable formed fit. The same plasma injected technology is used on the overlay. This material provides you with one big “stretch zone” giving you a snug fit. There are moulded Achilles locks to reduce heel lift.

The Exit 13
The Exit 13’s are one of our most practical bindings when it comes to function and comfort. A rear lace overlay system makes it easy for you to get your feet in and out of the bindings. Also when the laces are tightened the overlapping wraps pull down on your ankle giving you a secure fit and reduce heel lift by pushing them into the moulded Achilles locks on the heel. New this year to the Exit 13 binding is an inner neoprene material on the toe and heel, making them even more comfortable then before.

The TRAFFIC wakeskate
Without a doubt, wakeskating has taken off over the years. Wakeskating gives us all another challenge behind the boat. The Traffic series supplies you with the tools to learn the nuances of this sport. All Traffic decks are made of 9 ply wood. Laminated with marine strength sealant to prevent warping to your deck. Squared off tip and tail make for powerful ollies and snap off the wake. Wakeskating is more than doing tricks off the wake. Grinding has been a staple of skateboarding, and it was just a matter of time until wakeskating encompassed that aspect as well. Only Traffic wakeskates have our impact slider base, which lessens damage to your board and prolongs the life of it..
