  • DESCRIPTION

    A truly surf inspired shape, with waves like Malibu Point California in mind while designing the Darkslide. The nose concave allows you to cross step up the nose for cheater 5 nose riding just like your soul arching down the point on your 9’0″ log. The Lightning Rail™️ plus deep concave allow for unrestricted speed for effortless glide, making it feel like you’re almost cheating. With a tucked entry rail, plus nose flip, it fits in tight transitions even though it’s a longer board.

    The straight fin setup makes riding revert velvet smooth, and it comes standard with 5 futures fin boxes so it can be ridden with all true surf style configurations. (Twin, Twin + Trailer, Tri, Reverse Twinzer & Quad.)

flex pop™️

Our Flex Pop™️ is designed and tested by the Velvet team of shredders in Southern California.  Every step through out the entire construction process was thoughtfully and strategically designed, planned and tested over and over till we landed on the most light weight and durable wakesurf board on the planet.  Using premium materials and a 100% recycled EPS core to minimize our ecological footprint, and to help protect mother earth.

Flex Pop™️ uses a 2lb. density closed cell 100% recycled EPS core for added buoyancy and durability, while giving it the most lively feel available.  We then encapsulate the entire board in an extremely impact and buckle resistant 4oz. S-Glass ( 2 layers on the deck and 1 layer on the bottom).  To add further strength and to increase pop, we added a 3K carbon fiber  to both the deck and bottom, making it basically bomb proof.  To avoid bubbling and delamination we added an expansion valve so it keeps the board safe from continued sun and extreme heat.
