CRAZYFLY RAPTOR PRO

Jun 19, 2009

STYLE: Freeride/Freestyle
SIZE: 132 x 41 cm
FINS: 5 cm G10 Fins

On the Water
The Crazy Fly is a fun, skatey, sportster that can be aggressively thrown into turns. It’s faster and livelier than last season’s Raptor and has improved upwind performance. There’s ample pop available for the odd freestyle manoeuvres and the flexy tips provide good control for sticking those off-axis landings. Good bounce control and flex in the tips also helps to smooth out the chop. The new tail shape seems to release easier than the previous CrazyFlys we’ve tested and in the flat water you can load and release on demand. The Raptor Pro has performance that adapts to real world conditions and is a great option for the freeriders of the world.

Board Construction
The Raptor is one of the few boards on the market with full Nano Carbon construction and it also features a full wood core. Nano fiber tech is a cross-woven carbon cloth that provides the most responsive reflex response and contributes to this CrazyFly’s dynamic flex pattern.

Footbed and Strap System
The Quick Fix strap system is super lightweight compared to other systems tested. Very easy to mount and adjust this strap system which is a bonus for tightly packing boards for travel or shipment. The aggressively contoured footbed and toe ridge take some time to get used to, but after a while your feet acclimatize and you’re fully locked in.
