Fanatic Eagle 2006 - Fly like an Eagle! New name, new look and new shape!

Fanatic Eagle 2006 - Fly like an Eagle! New name, new look and new shape! Designed for the easiest and fastest sailing there is. Just looking at them you can already see the difference the CAD design process makes - no edges that could disturb the water flow, a CAD controlled rocker line and a clean power V – just perfect smoothness!

This smooth shape of the Fanatic Eagle reflects on the water and gybes in all conditions are direct, stable and always enable planing throughout. Supported by a clean power V, the CAD rocker offers everything - early planing, control, speed and a great deal of manoeuvrebility.

The outline is designed to go along with the volume and the rocker, a finely tuned curve with enough centre-width for planing without any effort, yet narrower in the tail to allow top speed and manoeuvres.

The three Eagle sizes cater for every wind strength or rider style – just fly like an Eagle!

Features:
- CAD designed and CAM machined
- Faster, early planing and improved rocker from Raceboards and Skate/Hawk
- Control concaves for early planing, control and smooth riding
- New manoeuvre rails, a little fuller and softer for more speed, control and manoeuvres
- Shorter in length - for less excess weight, lower swing weight/equal volume flow for balanced shape
- Rounded pintail tail for smooth jibing and control
- Integrated heel footpads
- Eagle prepreg high performance fin
- Optional integrated nose shield – thermo formed part on nose avoids structural damages



Fanatic shaper Sebastian Wenzel explains the Eagle concept:
“We designed the Eagle range to be our easiest Freemove boards ever, for planing and control with great top speed. So you can learn and progress on these shapes. Being easy does not mean there is less performance, rather the Eagle offers all levels of performance to match your skills.”

The Fanatic carbon sandwich uses the best quality and highest technical specification of carbon material currently available on the market. This carbon material has a perfect weight to stiffness ratio, as a result of its very fine weave.

Carbon sandwich in combination with additional glass-layers, to increase ding resistance, is used on the Eagle with s-glass T-Stringer and Shark Ltd with Carbon T-Stringer. The top-grade carbon (high modulus carbon) is used on the new Fanatic Falcons.
