BOARD REVIEW: Konduit Kite Pro Model

RIDER: BILLY ACKERMAN, CoreVac Team Rider, JAX BEACH FL

MODEL: 5’10” Konduit KITE PRO

Cannibal is now offering a Strapless Kitesurf construction in select models. The crew at Ocean Extreme Sports has been thoroughly testing these boards to fine tune the perfect strapless kitesurf weapon! My personal board of choice is the 5’10” Konduit Kite PRO. The Konduit Kite PRO edition is the perfect mixture between a groveler and a standard shortboard shape.  From light wind and small surf to overhead nuking conditions this board will take anything you have to throw its way! Featuring a slightly wider outline than your traditional shortboard, subtle single concave and channels throughout the tail, give the Konduit Kite surfboard a very fast stable feeling that provides smooth rail to rail transitions and quick pivot in the pocket. Comes with the new FCS2 fin boxes for a strong box that can match the Cannibal build! CoreVac technology is the lightest and toughest construction I have ever used. For our new Konduit kite PRO model we are adding fiberglass layers where needed yet still keeping the boards as light possible. On the Pro model we are adding a 2in carbon strip top and bottom to withstand heavy landings and aggressive riders. This construction can hands-down take a serious beating, from hitting the board with your spreader bar to stomping your heals into the deck, Cannibal’s built to withstand the beating kitesurfing has to offer with the performance and weight of most standard high-performance surfboards.  Come check them out, and even take one out for a demo, at Ocean Extreme Sports in St. Augustine today!
