Carbon Art SPEED Board
The Speed range is dedicated to going flat out fast. To push the speed envelope in real world conditions you need maximum control, full concentration, and a board that doesn't distract you from finding your line. To achieve this, the boards are designed to trim like a plane on autopilot. Leaving the rider to focus on the wind and chop ahead- perfectly suited for both real-world GPS speed sailing and video timed record attempts.
The Carbon Art SPEED range has been designed, tested and proven at the world-class speed venues of Sandy Pt and Walvis Bay. With unrivalled versatility, the designs excel in the small rolling chop found in real-world speed conditions where other designs are struggling for control, and maintain uncompromised performance in record-breaking conditions.
The Pro Model Speed board is constructed with a higher carbon content and a special Teflon™-like polished bottom - this creates a stiffer board and a super fast base surface, together these construction and finishing details have the boards weighing the same as the the standard board models, yet out performing them in the side-by-side speed tests.

| Your Riding Needs | Our Board Design |
|---|---|
| Speed - unlimited top end | Computer generated shapes for optimum smoothness of all lines. Rocker, outline and vee designed together to optimise the working trim angles, and minimise rail wetting up front in chop. Carbon Art's manufacturing techniques and materials ensure that the board is as light as it can possibly be without sacrificing strength |
| Maximum control at speed | Tapered Parallel outline maintains a smooth and free ride through chop when combined with flatter overall rocker, providing a stable platform that doesn't bounce around when the conditions get tough. Thinned back foot area keeps you closer to the fin, which gives you more direct control and reduces back leg movement in chop. |
| Versatile and easy to get going | Volume centred further forward for maximum sub-planing stability and easy waterstarting. Thicker rails help to produce more buoyancy for the volume of the board than conventional shapes. Gybing is tight and fast due to the pin tail and V distribution. Flatter rocker gets the board planing fast, and makes it easy to sail upwind. All of these features save energy so you spend more time going fast and less time taking a break on the beach! |
