Mike Ferraro has often been referred to as the best wakeboarding coach in the world. Responsible for teaching several of the current and past pro tour champions, along with riders that are just catching the stoke. He has taken all his knowledge of varying abilities, and styles to determine the universal characteristics a rider needs and blended them into one shape. The result was this new District shape, which is being referred to as the best board he has created to date. This board has a 3-stage lift in the center of the board, with a continuous outer rail. A rider can still get that explosive more vertical lift, and the faster outer rails push the board into the rider. You feel the speed of continuous and the float of 3-stage. If a rider comes in with a lot of angle, the board is reacting more to the outer continuous profile - feeling the added speed, coming in and flatting the board out as they hit the wake - the 3-stage kicks in. This is a series you don’t have to really stand on to create a progressive cut from the sharp/hard edge on the tip/tail of the board, outside of the stance. The rounder radius bevel in the center of the board, inside of the stance, creates forgiveness. A legendary new all purpose shape from smooth/low maintenance turns, to wide open high speed cuts behind the boat, to versatility on the cable for air tricks and our super wide 27.5" stance option for added board control on sliders.
Sharper center rail creates a quicker edge transfer that is more reliable in choppier water conditions, blends to a more vertical sidewall in the tip/tail allowing the board to ride higher on the water with more glide speed
2 Traction channels in the middle - help with acceleration thru a turn and push the rider into the wake, 4 Traction channels in the tip/tail - create a more stable feel on landings
4 Flutes in the tip/tail - designed for a cable rider to aid the traction of the fins with a cleaner lift with less pressure on air tricks allowing the board to flick out of the water and away easier
Variable Bevel - rounder radius bevel on the inside of a riders stance blending to a sharp bevel on the outside for a clean progressive edge transfer and hold
Versatile rocker line - depending on how a rider edges into the wake it will feel like a continuous with easy transitions and soft landings, or a 3 stage rocker board and a more upright pop
Cable speed design - most surface area, and a sharper rail optimized for slower cable speeds
