Freemove, freestyle wave, crossover - the test group is once again as diverse as the international names for this group of "all-rounders". This time, we've shaken things up with an additional freemove board from JP-Australia with a single fin, as well as new shapes from Duotone, Starboard and Severne.
The fin topic remains hot in the freemove board test, because the fin setup alone can significantly change characteristics such as "tight turning", "wave suitability" or "carving jibes". However, not always in the way you might expect at first glance. We have already tried this out for the upcoming test!
Out of eight models in the Freemoveboards 95 test, two models are delivered with only one fin box, all others are equipped as thrusters as standard. With Starboard, you also get the single fin as standard, at least in the highest quality board construction. Brands such as Starboard, Goya and Quatro have offset the powerbox head of the centre fin lengthways on their freemove boards so that the position fits perfectly for both single fins and triple fins.
You can see all the boards in the test and lots of details in the gallery above!
