A TIMELESS CLASSIC FOR EVERY WAVE Does the legendary Ripper 5 need an introduction? Probably not. Still made in the classic surfboard construction in combination with modern manufacturing technology, it is your loyal and durable companion who will reliably support you in a wide variety of conditions. With its shortboard outline complemented by elements of a fish shape and the progressive rocker, the Ripper 5 is ideal for every wave kiter and any wave from small waves to steep overhead breakers. FEATURES 1/7 Progressive rocker The Ripper has a three-stage progressive rocker with a flat centre section - ideal for bottom turns with maximum speed and perfect precision over the tail when the board is pushed into the corner. 2/7 Mono Concave hull The underbody of the Ripper is adorned with a subtle Mono concave, which ensures strong gliding properties and maximum guidance in turns. 3/7 Classic Dynamic Robust Professional surfers swear by this design: a PU core, enclosed by a laminate made of fiberglass and epoxy. It stands for a dynamic riding experience with pronounced flex values and pleasant smoothness. Our multi-layer fibreglass laminate is processed with high-performance resin, which promises perfectly shaped rails and a classic surf feeling. double stringer A wooden stringer runs along the central axis in the core, which takes over flex control in the longitudinal direction and gives the ripper its unique riding experience. A second, overlying wooden stringer accommodates the inserts for the foot straps. 4/7 Carbon reinforced tail The tail patch has been reduced in size on all models, making the board lighter and maintaining a good flex in the tail. The important parts remain perfectly reinforced. 5/7 Strap ready Thanks to the V4A stainless steel inserts laminated into the deck, you are free to decide whether you want to ride your Ripper with or without straps 6/7 Thruster fin setup Thruster setups stand for high agility and allow for tight turns. In addition, they detach easier from the water during radical maneuvers on the wave lip than quad setups. 7/7 ORIGINAL FCS II FIN SYSTEM The FCS-II system allows the fins to be changed within a few seconds – without the need for tools. Of course, older generations of FCS fins can also be mounted with a grub screw. ❮ ❯ SPECIFICATIONS LENGTH WIDTH THICKNESS VOLUME 5'4 18 1/2” 2” 22.6 L 5'8 19” 2 1/8” 26 L 5'11 19 5/16 2 3/16” 29 L let slideIndex = 1; showSlides(slideIndex); function plusSlides(n) { showSlides(slideIndex += n); } function currentSlide(n) { showSlides(slideIndex = n); } function showSlides(n) { let i; let slides = document.getElementsByClassName("mySlides"); let dots = document.getElementsByClassName("dot"); if (n > slides.length) { slideIndex = 1 } if (n < 1) { slideIndex = slides.length } for (i = 0; i < slides.length; i++) { slides[i].style.display = "none"; } for (i = 0; i < dots.length; i++) { dots[i].className = dots[i].className.replace(" active", ""); } slides[slideIndex - 1].style.display = "block"; dots[slideIndex - 1].className += " active"; } // Touch events for sliding on mobile let touchStartX = 0; let touchEndX = 0; document.querySelector('.slideshow-container').addEventListener('touchstart', function(event) { touchStartX = event.touches[0].clientX; }); document.querySelector('.slideshow-container').addEventListener('touchend', function(event) { touchEndX = event.changedTouches[0].clientX; handleSwipe(); }); function handleSwipe() { if (touchStartX - touchEndX > 50) { plusSlides(1); // Swipe left, show next slide } else if (touchEndX - touchStartX > 50) { plusSlides(-1); // Swipe right, show previous slide } }
