U-TOPIA: SHORT BEAST MODE!
CONCEPT OF U-TOPIA: BORN TO BREAK THE RULES
CHANGE YOUR MINDSET
New concept of wave boards "New school-Ultra compact". U-Topia is the Board ultra-short wave (from 200cm to 211cm) for DIRTY on-shore/euro wave conditions. The challenge was to create a Board super compact to make the most of non-ideal wave conditions. We used some of the latest trends in surfboard design, combined with our wave board philosophy. We created the U-TOPIA
We are super proud of this design because it sets us at a very high performance level for a Board euro-wave, with a true "Fish surfy feel" unique in its kind.
SHAPE and DESIGN:
U-TOPIA has a sophisticated design and thanks to its sportiness, dynamism, and construction quality, it combines an unmistakable experience.
Its minimalist, parallel compact and powerful shape, perfectly balanced, has an engaging and intuitive feeling, with exceptional versatility.
Board "stubby&loose" very fun for all types of waves and conditions. Agility, control, and comfort guarantee quick entries for intuitive surfing. Very versatile for a wave that ranges from jumps, sliding moves, and snappy cut-backs, to long aggressive and powerful surfs. It absolutely does not disdain Cross-Off-Shore conditions.
Planing, fast, equipped with a "medium" rocker, allows quick and responsive top turns and offers great control in chop. The Board has a "carver-skate feeling", compact and with a "short tail" very free underfoot that allows effortless direction changes and turns making it easier to surf small waves and in the pocket.
New optimized Shape with Thruster set-up to work in a wide range of wind and waves. Even if slightly wider, the stern always remains "loose" and stable from the pocket to the highest waves. U-Topia quickly and vertically climbs the wave adapting easily to different curve angles. The feeling is of having both underfoot and in the air a Board of lower volume and dimensions.
Shape completely designed in 3D and executed with millimetric precision thanks to the use of the latest generation CNC-Machine
The compact, parallel, and relatively narrow outline offers stability. The parallel edges offer less drag and provide ample lift for early planing, pop, aerials, and jumps. Swallow Tail stern with high wingers. Given its compactness, the center of gravity is shifted towards the stern, allowing for more grip in long waves and extra thrust in tight turns, leaving the front part very free for high jumps even on small waves. The central volume and the flat stance area, inspired by wave surfing, provide a lot of stability and ease of use despite the reduced size, which helps overcome foam during the non-planing phase and in float-and-ride. Sharp rails in the stern area provide traction and speed by creating lift-and-release, while the bow edges are soft and full, facilitating comfort and optimizing progressive maneuvers.
