Gecko Daggerboard
The Secret To Success
Sizes: 156
The Gecko Daggerboard is our freeride board with the biggest range of use or required riding skills. From the very first runs hooked into the harness all the way to full planing power, our special Daggerboard Edition perfectly bridges the entry and freeride worlds.
A freeride board concept with the guarantee to improve. The rather thin and wide shape has been subtly adapted and its volume is perfectly distributed for an amazingly stable and at the same time very sportive ride.
The Integrated Nose Shield is made for protection from crashes through the mast in early stages. The additional footstrap and daggerboard options make this board the perfect companion for your progression from the first steps to planing and gybes.
The thin rails show their potential especially when gybing and offer best possible grip in turns. In addition, both the wide tail and the large planing surface always provide lots of control during manoeuvres and keep you planing between gusts.
Available in our durable High Resistance Skin technology and 156l volume.

compare
Choose the Gecko over the Viper for:
The Gecko offers a lighter board weight and more responsive planing performance. The Viper will perform better off the plane, whilst the Gecko would be the better choice once progressing to footstraps, carve gybes and waterstarting.
Choisissez la Gecko plutôt que l'Eagle :
La Gecko est notre planche de Freeride polyvalente performante. Elle est plus efficace en termes de vitesse de pointe et plus incisive au jibe que l'Eagle. C'est l'évolution logique pour les riders qui sont passés par l'Eagle et qui veulent améliorer leurs maîtrise du freeride. Très facile au planing, avec une vitesse de pointe élevée, elle est idéale pour perfectionner les empannages, qu'ils soient carvés ou serrés.
