FLEX RATING: We have a flex testing machine that can gauge the recoil of a board. The higher the number – the more the board will want to react back to its original rocker line. While the smaller number means the board will be softer and more compliant on rails.
HOW MUCH DOES IT FLEX: Some boards are more adaptive on the water and features with a softer flex pattern. Others feel more secure and stable but aren’t as adaptive on rails.
WHERE DOES IT FLEX: Where the board flexes is personal preference that will come overtime. Most of our cable boards have a leverage point where a certain part of the board compresses until the fulcrum kicks in with snap back. The most common 4 flex patterns are…
TIP/TAIL: These riders want a traditional mid-section and extra pliable ends for more of a locked in feel on tip/tail presses and extra snap rebounding out of the press. This series allows a rider to exaggerate their press with the softest flex numbers in the tip/tail – but as the press gains a high degree of angle the center of the board prevents from folding over.
CENTER: The Kinetik Project Flexbox 1 has a super soft belly but the rigid tip/tail gives the more snap off a feature and on air tricks. This series allows a rider to exaggerate their press with the lowest flex numbers in the center – but as the press builds because soft midsection then the traditional tip/tail prevents the board from folding over. For the rider that wants the biggest sweet spot with the most contact on rails.
