THE SQUID<br />

Propel through the water with<br />

this new multifunctional directional<br />

kiteboarding hydrofoil<br />

/ skim board. The RRD Squid<br />

was designed with freeriding<br />

in mind. It is extremely maneuverable<br />

and provides the rider<br />

with constant feedback and<br />

control due to the light and stiff<br />

construction. The quad concave<br />

not only gives the board grip as<br />

a skim board, but it also provides<br />

more rigidity, thus improving<br />

the overall stiffness. These<br />

four channels, coupled with<br />

a moderate nose rocker, allow<br />

the board to drive forward and<br />

upward on touchdowns with<br />

the foil.<br />

The Squid’s deck is covered<br />

with full ‘EVA brushed top striped<br />

groove’ and can be used in<br />

the foil configuration, with foot<br />

straps, or as a strapless board.
