CORE Roamer 70L

The 70L Roamer is a great board for wave riding and freestyle winging thanks to its compact size. In larger sizes it would make a great light wind or beginner board thanks to its design and bottom shape, and really complements CORE’s total freeride package.

DOUBLE DIP: Unifoil Hyper2 170/210

The Hyper2 has plenty of top speed to catch the swells but low enough stall-out speed to keep going slow or get going again if you come down.

A worthy upgrade over the V2, the new Mantis is going to be the perfect wing to keep the more sportive rider engaged and aid progression in any genre of riding.
