AK Phazer Duratech V3

Features

ROCKER CURVE

• The slight nose kick prevents the board from pearling with enough curve to recover touch downs
• The flat tail rocker maximizes paddle speed to help you get into waves early
• It also ensures the foil angle is always 90 degrees when flying, helping to trim and maintain a balanced ride

THICK PROFILE

• Packing a surprising amount of float into such a short length reduces the swing weight, keeping the board easy to pump and turn
• The volume is optimized for stability and works with the high apex rail to keep the board as nimble as possible

GORE AUTO VENT

• GORE auto vents provide a waterproof and breathable solution, thanks to their proprietary GORE Membrane
• This breathable membrane has a microporous structure that allows air and gases to pass through freely, so pressures are equalized, and moisture diffused before problems arise

DURATECH CONSTRUCTION

• Durable composite shell with lightweight core. Wood sandwich standing area
• Heavy duty foil connection
• Covering an ultra-lightweight fused EPS core, the durable composite shell optimizes durability while minimizing weight
• The wood sandwich standing area creates additional strength in the standing area and works together with the T- Stringers on the bottom deck to enhance stiffness
• The foil connection features a heavy duty high-density load plate, which carries the load of the foil and connects it to the top deck for a direct connection between the foil and the rider

NARROW NOSE

• Faster to paddle, easier to push the nose into waves, and less chance of catching the nose through turns
• The widest part of the outline is quite far forward for easy paddling, while the curve in the outline keeps the flow for mid-turn touch downs

KICK TAIL

• The bottom kick tail allows the rider to tilt the board upwards, assisting to force the nose to lift and release from the water
• It also reduces the tail touching the water when pumping and turning

BOTTOM SHAPE

• The rounded V on the nose helps prevent the nose from sticking on touch downs, instead recovering without losing too much speed
• The mid-section runs into a single concave for maximum paddle speed
• Larger models have a longer release edge optimizing the early planing at lower speed

CONCAVE DECK

• The concave deck makes it feel much more stable and comfortable when paddling
• This allows you to push your chest forward to generate speed when paddling into the waves, while keeping the board stable
• It also makes you feel more connected to the foil with the advantage of the extra volume on the rails for stability
