The Fanatic NewWave 75 is dominating in German surf Magazine Test - 48 out of 50 points!!!
German surf Magazine 03/06:
“The Fanatic Test and design team doesen´t do things half way, it´s all or nothing! The latest 2006 NewWave 75L is powerful in all conditions. Hardly any other board in this category slashes so radical in all winds and wave sizes. Going out thru the waves it seems to be an incredible turbo charge acceleration! It´s not only fast, it also turns radical and always feels lively.
The NewWave reacts on the slightest foot pressure, which is very important in waves. But also in big waves, on classic sideshore spots, the rail is coping easy with any foot pressure. During the bottom turn down the line it turns as sharp as a knife. The NewWave turns super easy from rail to rail and the easy feeling encourages to jump the smallest ramp already.
The perfect planing abilities make this wave machine the ideal board for the North Sea. Especially more experienced waveriders will enjoy the radical qualities and the wide range of use of this board.
During Chicken Jibes or Tacks the NewWave needs quick reaction. Also Aerials have to be rather landed quite accurate. In flat water it also confirms its wide range of use: it jumps free, has really good control (for a radical Waveboard) and jibes very stylish.
Summary: a very radical Waveboard you can recommend with every wind- and wave-conditions. Feels comfortable with side-offshore conditions and small onshore waves. Especially more experienced waveriders who love a direct feeling, will enjoy the high potential of this board. surf-tip: all conditions/all types.”
