Hyperlite Broadcast Wakesurf Board (2024 Edition)

Overview

The Hyperlite Broadcast Wakesurf Board (2024 Edition) continues its legacy as one of the most reliable and highly versatile hybrid shapes behind the boat. Shaper Scott "Butch" Bouchard designed this board to offer a forgiving, user-friendly platform for beginners learning to stay in the pocket while providing intermediate riders with the speed and response needed to learn spins and air tricks. Its signature hybrid profile blends the carves of a traditional surf design with the loose agility of a skim style, making it a true boat pleaser that works for various rider sizes and styles.

Key Performance Features

• Biolite 3 Core Engineering: Built using Hyperlite's proprietary gold-standard core material, providing the lightest and most durable formula to ensure consistent performance over multiple seasons.
• Monocoque Overlapping Glass: Integrates the top and bottom fiberglass layers together over the rails to drastically reduce side-impact delamination and strengthen the board's structural integrity.
• Layered Glass Longevity: Built with layered fiberglass that resists natural breakdown over time, ensuring the board retains its identical pop and lively feel season after season.
• Dual Concave Base Architecture: Channels water flow through the bottom into two separate paths through the fins and out the tail, generating an incredibly fast, loose, and responsive ride.
• Rolled Rail Profile: A rounded rail design explicitly crafted to prevent edge catches, keeping the ride forgiving for newer surfers applying uneven foot pressure.
• Molded EVA Traction Pad: Features an ultra-grade, molded EVA foam deck pad for a soft, grippy finish that provides premium foot traction and comfort across all foot sizes.
