All Stokes are trimmed towards early planing and top speed in the corresponding wind ranges. Parallel double concaves with stabilizing side flats give the board a smooth ride through the chop. This then transitions into a flat V, which lifts the board between the mast track and the front strap, resulting in exceptional early planing and a free sailing sensation. Lastly flat V in the tail section gives the board its maximum speed.A harmonic and flat distribution of volume throughout the board provides stability and a secure stance for all occasions. All Stokes are equipped with thin rails and lots of tuck providing incredible jibing, perfect control and an amazing sailing smoothness. The Cut Outs deliver explosive acceleration when getting onto the plane plus high speed and an unbelievably smooth ride!
