The 2010 FlyRadical S and M are based on the successful 2009 models which were loved by team riders and customers. For 2010, we kept their outstanding performance, but eliminated the spray and improved the riding comfort. Lots of research and testing time was needed to get those right. The biggest changes occurred to the Large FlyRadical which was made more flexible and given more rocker. The XL Flyradical is a new addition to the range.

Flex/Scoop-Rocker:
We have developed and use a board flex measurement machine, this machine is used to measure the 3D-Shape in every important riding situation. One of the key points was to increase the flex outside of the feet and to add comfort and control in choppy and gusty conditions without losing the underpowered performance and pop. The Scoop-Rocker line of the FlyRadical is self adjusting from under- to overpowered conditions in parts of a second.

Asymmetric Shape:
The 2010 FlyRadical have tips that are a bit less wide and have an even more asymmetric shape. Tips that are a bit less wide, combined with more flex increase the control in overpowered conditions a lot. The wide center part of the FlyRadica increase the surface area to not sink down in lulls or after landing your newest wakestyle trick. The flat and constant scoop-rocker line increases speed and upwind performance. The heelside outline is more straight for massive pop and maximum upwind performance. The toeside outline got more rounded to achieve improved control riding switch and makes the riding feeling of the FlyRadical more natural.

The Construction:
The core of the FlyRadical is made out of light, but super durable Paulownia wood. Since we integrated this core material in the FLYBOARDS, broken boards have been a thing of the past. The inserts are double reinforced and riding with wakeboard binding is also possible. Thin ABS rails and tips made out of polyethylene are used to protect the sidewalls and to increase the flex in the tips. We use a 3 Dimensional construction, to be able to add the flex to the sides of the tips instead of only the whole tip. Weights of the 2010 FlyRadical could also be slightly reduced, giving you an even more enjoyable session on and off the water! The grab rail on the toeside rail remains in the 2010 FlyRadical, making your board-off tricks even easier. The number of different screws to assemble the FlyRadical is reduced, assembling a board is now super easy.

The toeside where you can edge less hard has a smoother outline. That enables you to land and ride switched easier and increases control. The heelside is straighter to give you the best upwind performance and pop. The thin flexible tips that are made out of PE, are working like shock absorbers in choppy water and overpowered conditions. The 3.5mm single concave is giving the board more grip and stability. The concave is smoothly running out towards flat in the tips, so the board doesn’t lose its playful character.

There are 3 different stance options. The Small stance inserts are also placed more towards the heelside rail so it’s easier to edge the board for smaller riders. Top sheets with silkscreen printing inside prevent the graphics from being scratched off by sand, shells and rocks. We use 3D computer analyses for the flex pattern of the board. Together with a ‘flex under load’ machine we are able to create an optimum flex pattern. All FlyRadical Boards have a full wood core for a stronger construction. Vibrations are better absorbed and due to our new construction, the weight has been reduced.
