A mistake crept into the printed ratings in the 2026 waveboard test - here is the corrected version.

Our editors usually take a particularly close look at the test, and each article is finally checked by the editorial and graphics departments. Unfortunately, a slip-up occurred in the final correction loop when testing the 2026 waveboards in surf 11-12 2025. Because blank lines were inadvertently deleted in the rating fields, certain ratings (+/-/o) have literally disappeared. slipped. The texts and grades of the test boards are not affected by this, but there are some contradictions to the +/-/o ratings, which we will explain here with a large SORRY would like to correct. When reading the test reports, please rely on the individual descriptions of the boards and the scores on page 28 - all the information here is as it should be. We would like to correct all incorrect (+/-/o) ratings below.
