It’s like kitesurfing on your everyday surfboard. The same flex, weight and feel that everyone loves when surfing, now available in a board that can cope with the board abuse that kitesurfing brings.
A team favourite for surfing with a kite. On point breaks like One Eye and Punta Preta this board comes to it’s own. Lots of control, but with the right release when you want to crank a turn off the top.
Based on a traditional high performance shortboard with a little added width in the middle, to make it friendly for average surfers. It has a fair bit of rocker in the nose which is flattened out in the tail, this makes the board plane earlier and helps upwind performance. A deep single concave running the length of the board gives a lot of drive and lift.
Medium to thin rails make it grip the water and give you control at high speeds which are typical when kitesurfing. The squash tail is really thin for optimal feel with the water. Compared to the Appleflap model, this board has more drive and less control, thus keeping more speed after turns and it’s easier to ride upwind.

Construction
Hex-Skin construction
Hex-skin Glass
Our standard hex-skin construction, consists of the 50K foam core, the core is wrapped in a first layer of structural fibreglass, in a 45 degree orientation. This to keep the board as flexible as possible while making a very strong base. The deck is now layered with a honeycomb layer for more impact resistance. The bottom is left without honeycomb, again to maintain maximum flex.
Hex-skin Carbon
Hex-skin Carbon is similar in composition to the hex-skin Glass boards. But instead of glass we use 100% carbon fibre, there is no glass hidden underneath the top layer of carbon. Using carbon makes the board lighter and it makes it stick to your feet even better. Because the board is so light, it flows over the chops a lot better than you might expect.
To give the carbon boards their unique look the deck is finished with a tinted resin, that can be customised, pick your own color or mix multiple for a truly one of a kind board.
The Klokhouse comes with the following options by default:
- Standard color: Blue or Yellow
- 3 fin boxes (FCS II or Futures)
- Leash plug
