Sailing Style: Real-world wave shredder and drag-race winner.
Felt like it could go in as much wind as god could throw at me it had a magic carpet-ride feel to it because the deck is domed and even though my heels weren't that low to the water, I felt like I was levitating over the chop.. Best suits: Downwind slalom blaster.

Sailing Style: Olympic hopeful holds her own in almost any drag race.
Easy to jump and it feels small for 111-liters a good thing for me. I thought it went upwind good, but I felt that I was losing speed in the jibes consistently. Yes, I would own it for blasting around in chop and flat water. It's fast and better suited for my size sailors.

Sailing Style: Back-and-forth blaster, dialing in jibes and high winds.
I went 36.5 mph on it. I was amazed how fast it went my fastest run ever. But for me, the only thing it had going for it was beam reaching speed. In flat water, in good strong winds, the speed and speed sensation was just great fun.
Endless Ride & FUN
Our line of red runners has been totally overhauled for the 2006 season. All FREEs are now even faster and easier to jibe. Primarily this is due to new fins. With a changed outline, we have been able to complement and really boost the performance of the fins, although they have become shorter. The advantages for you: The boards go upwind very well and are easy to control, because they do not rail up on you, even when sailing on the limit. This is easier on your foot joints, and particularly longer runs become more comfortable. The boards handle even better and are easier to ride. And thats even more fun!
All FREE boards are build in Carbon-Kevlar-Sandwich-Technology
