Description
The Wainman Blunts are for the people, this board handles it all!
It's a board that can handle any condition that the rider may encounter, and adjust to any mood the rider is in and allows the power and huge potential given by the kite to be utilized properly. It does not matter what the conditions are when you show up, a Wainman Blunt always makes it a fun ride.
Soulful Freeriding:
Wainman Blunts are all about having fun. Go faster here, slow down there, jump this kicker, spray - carve that bay. Whatever the freerider wants to do this board will take it in it's stride. The board has got what it takes to be versatile, yet has no problem getting the riders adrenaline pumping.
Its greatest attribute is very fast acceleration that lets the rider reach high speeds amazingly quickly while the reduced drag allows you to enjoy those higher speeds without extra effort. This, along with the very light handling and advanced shape to avoid face spray, make riding on Blunts just a sweet experience.The way these boards go through the roughest chop is just unbelievable.
Upwind Performance:
Wainman Blunts are sharp, they cut through the water like a hot knife through butter. Thin rails and a full harmonically concave bottom ensure good upwind performance and make the whole board work like a hydrodynamic fin. Pointing towards the moving air is not achieved by the typical shortcut of flat rocker. Instead, all Blunts are blessed with a deep rocker that allows soft landings and total chop absorbtion. For the safety of the rider, those thin rails are filled with special elastic silicone resin that protects rider from cuts and bruises.
Direct Control:
Because of their unique light and thin construction, Blunt boards handle exceptionally well on the water. The drag of the boards is reduced to a minimum so the sensation of riding is really different from other twin tips. Thanks to the engineered balance and taper from the centre to the rails, the ratio between the length and width of Blunt boards could be widened. That makes the boards plane much quicker and edge better. This is done without any additional risk to the ankles, contrary to the usual result when widening traditional heavier boards. Reduced thickness of rails and centered weight bias take care of the physics. The wider board along with the close fitting Blunt Binding System result in direct control over the board and gives it instant edge response.
Jumping / Pop:
Jumping is the most fun for many freeriders and Blunt Boards will not disappoint. They give a real nice high! Their light construction and engineered flex make them want to fly by themselves as soon as the rider initiates the popping motion. Because of their jumping nature, progression is super fast, and all manoeuvres are perfected very quickly. Speed up, hold the edge and just pop the board.
Binding System:
In order to provide safe and complete control over the Blunts, these lively boards are equipped with very ergonomic, super adjustable and a well padded binding system. Designed from the ground up to complement the special features of the boards. The Blunt Binding System is made of super lightweight EVA pads thermoformed on full carbon plates and adjustable straps made with a memory foam and designed to fit all sizes of feet really well including female or younger riders, who may have smaller or thinner feet can ride stoked and have tight fitting and direct control over their board.
Each board has 2 sets of inserts, giving you the possibility to ride it with either narrower or wider stance, depending on the natural preference and body proportions of each single rider.
Finless System:
The preferred way of riding boards, especially Blunts, for many advanced riders is finless. This indeed, is a different dimension of riding. Try it and enjoy this unique skill of Blunts. Just remove your fins and stick some surf wax in the holes so the water doesn’t spray you in the eye, and go deeper.
Wainman Blunt Sizing
Naturally Blunts are made proportionally for different sizes of riders. This, along with the average wind conditions that you normally experience should be your main factors in choosing your size. As Blunt boards are quite different from other boards, please don’t automatically try to copy the size that you have ridden before.
