For 2017 Fabien Vollenweider worked through countless prototypes with one of the best slalom teams on the PWA including top racer Ross Williams and Cedric Bordes chief of R&D to develop an even higher performance race winning Manta range.The conditions on the Professional Windsurfing Tour are getting more and more diverse each season and it was critical for our team have a quiver of boards that works in all types of wind and water conditions around the world. The Manta range is already famous for its control and top end performance in even the toughest conditions but our 2017 range is set to take you and our team to the very top of the podium race after race.With the success of our 2017 range we have decided to keep the winning shapes of our smaller sizes for the new year. Our Manta 71 and 85 however have been completely redeveloped for the new season. Changes to the outlines, rocker lines and bottom contours of both boards result in a more direct feeling board with huge improvements in bottom end power. The new tail and cut out designs ensure earlier release and even better top end control and better still we have achieved all this without losing any of the critical top end control.
