Ocean Rodeo Mako Board
Ocean Rodeo Mako Board
$899.00
Lighter and more responsive, the classic Mako shape remains!
After 17 years in the Ocean Rodeo board line-up, we thought the time was right to revisit the classic Mako. Was it possible to improve upon this legendary board? Over the last 12 months the Mako went in for a full check up!
Sizes: 135 / 140 / 150 / 165
Board comes complete with pads/straps, handle and fins.
The reality was that all these modifications seemed to have a negative effect when we tested these “new Makos” against the original shape, taking away from the balanced, lively, hard-carving, chop-eating, grin-inducing ride that has made the Mako an industry legend.
However, there was one upgrade that did make a positive difference. Make it lighter. Make the flex more “crisp”. We lowered the board weight by swapping in a new mineral-based composite to replace the classic S-glass. Now lighter, the Mako has found a new flex and liveliness that will be noticed and enjoyed by even the most diehard Mako devotee.
As always, the Mako line-up offers freeride enthusiasts of all backgrounds a board suited to their riding style and size, while the wood core ensures your board will survive the rough and tumble ‘No Excuses’ coastal conditions that it is built to perform in.
CONSTRUCTION
RAIL-TO-RAIL CONCAVE
Built for ‘real world’ conditions, the Mako excels where all other conventional twin tips fail. Short-fetch chop, rolling ocean waves, inside shore breaks, the Mako smoothly traverses it all and delights in setting the rail hard for a high G force carve to reverse direction for another tack.
What’s the secret? The deepest rail-to-rail concave of any twin tip ever produced combined with rounded tips, down-turned rails and a perfectly tuned rocker line. The Mako delivers a powerful fluid carving experience and a dependable rail for stratospheric boosting.
Z-55 FINS
When you only have one fin at each end, they had better be good!
Rugged, stiff, and beautifully foiled, these G10 composite Z-55 fins deliver the extra grip needed when you push the Mako to the max!
BLISS AIR PADS & STRAPS
Each Smoothy board includes our Bliss air pads and straps.
Easily adjusted on the water, the Bliss Air pads & straps are designed to work with all Ocean Rodeo and most other brand’s twin tip kiteboards.
Featuring ultra durable and comfortable dual density EVA foam pads and near infinite strap configuration options the Bliss Air pad & strap system present your feet with the perfect balance of comfort and control when riding.
