AK 2023 Phazer V3 - Reflex Carbon

VERSATILE HYDROFOIL PERFORMANCE.

The Phazer is a showcase of our obsession with versatility. We set out to create a single board range that caters to foilers who want to explore as many aspects of foil riding as possible, in a single product.

From surf pumping, to all-around kite foil cruising and progressive winging, the Phazer is an ultra-versatile foilboard designed to maximize your time on the water. The perfect companion for foiling at every level, each size is optimized to cater to a wide range of users across categories, with a consistent feel underfoot making it easier to size up or down.

OVERVIEW:

• Carving oriented shape with a surf outline.
• Convex nose area for soft touchdowns.
• Hard release tail for early planing.

PHAZER STRAP & INSERT POSITIONS

The Phazer foilboards feature reinforced footstrap inserts with a number of different forwards or backwards positions, with a 2.5cm (1”) spacing. This enables the rider to be further forwards or backwards on the board, relative to their preferred stance width and foil position.

The front strap has the option of being mounted centred, slightly offset, or with a double or single strap at a 45-degree angle. The rear strap can be mounted over the center line of the board, or offset to the left or right. This insert pattern allows for left or right foot forward riding off to one side of the deck or a single strap angled slightly over the center line.

The US Box foil mount on the bottom deck allows for quick and easy assembly and micro trim adjustment. These inserts are compatible with any standard 9 x 16.5cm foil plate system and are connected through to the deck of the board with high density inserts.

ROCKER CURVE

The slight nose kick prevents the board from pearling with enough curve to recover touch downs. The flat tail rocker maximizes paddle speed to help you get into waves early. It also ensures the foil angle is always 90 degrees when flying, helping to trim and maintain a balanced ride.

THICK PROFILE

Packing a surprising amount of float into such a short length reduces the swing weight, keeping the board easy to pump and turn. The volume is optimized for stability and works with the high apex rail to keep the board as nimble as possible.

GORE AUTO VENT

GORE auto vents provide a waterproof and breathable solution, thanks to their proprietary GORE Membrane. This breathable membrane has a microporous structure that allows air and gases to pass through freely, so pressures are equalized, and moisture diffused before problems arise.

REFLEX CARBON CONSTRUCTION

• Full biaxial carbon top deck.
• Wood sandwich standing areas.
• Heavy-duty foil connection.

The Reflex Carbon construction creates an extremely strong and stiff standing area, covering an ultra-lightweight fused EPS core. The foil connection features a heavy duty high-density load plate, which carries the load of the foil and connects it to the top deck for a direct connection between the foil and the rider.

NARROW NOSE

Faster to paddle, easier to push the nose into waves, and less chance of catching the nose through turns. The widest part of the outline is quite far forward for easy paddling, while the curve in the outline keeps the flow for mid-turn touch downs.

KICK TAIL

The bottom kick tail allows the rider to tilt the board upwards, assisting to force the nose to lift and release from the water. It also reduces the tail touching the water when pumping and turning.

BOTTOM SHAPE

The rounded V on the nose helps prevent the nose from sticking on touch downs, instead recovering without losing too much speed. The mid-section runs into a single concave for maximum paddle speed. Larger models have a longer release edge optimizing the early planing at lower speed.

CONCAVE DECK

The concave deck makes it feel much more stable and comfortable when paddling. This allows you to push your chest forward to generate speed when paddling into the waves, while keeping the board stable. It also makes you feel more connected to the foil with the advantage of the extra volume on the rails for stability.
