Ronix Phoenix Project S 142 Wakeboard 2012

The Phoenix Project - S, designed lighter, with a later kick, more feel on the water and control on rails. A softer version of the Phoenix provides even more control on rails and feel on the water. The Phoenix opens up a new spectrum of board designs and riding styles allowing a rider to push all the way up the wake and as the tail passes thru the peak, it continues to build energy - not dampening the ride like most “flex” boards. A rider can feel the shift in board energy from the nose to the tail the longer they wait due to the unique lay-up and wide 28” stance option. A deck that you session more like your favorite snowboard, timing the wake with a later pop. Or just ride it like a traditional board with a mellower snap and super forgiving landings. With the Phoenix Project’s thinner profile and blended glass, you can feel a balance point- while pressing rails, the board flexes until it locks. A newfangled shape, winning the 2011 Alliance and Transworld favorite board of the year honors, for riders that want more of a snow/skate feel leaving the wake and added control on rails, or that just have a conventional style and want a smoother overall ride. For decades, Ronix engineers have been developing different layups of glass, constructions, woods and foams to create a board that does one thing, store energy.

Features

-Full center rail creates a smooth transferring board from edge to edge

-Blends to a more vertical sidewall in the tip and tail allowing the board to ride higher on the water with more glide speed

-Most exaggerated bottom bevel starts out at 4° blending to 18° on the ends super forgiving and less likely to get hung up on rails

-Deep symmetrical channels - help with acceleration thru a turn and push the rider into the wake

-Subtle tunnel more efficient water flow and stabilizes landings

-Rocker line carries a lot of speed up the wake making it easier for a rider to have a late take off

-Sintered Base - The most durable non-stick base material we have ever tested on rails without loosing any glide speed on the water

-Blended Glass - Our secret concoction absorbs more energy before rebounding it - a lightweight woven construction brings less swing weight and increased feel on the water to the board

-Mod Pour - The highest strength to weight ratio we have ever tested - setting the standard of the most refined recipe of foam out there

-4 Slider Fins - A fin actually designed to be sessioned on rails, also for riders that like that finless feel, the wider design creates turbulence giving it a less gratuitous grip on the water

-4 Fiberglass 1.0” ramp fins

-Versatile cable and boat board with a controlled flex

-Ridden by Erik Ruck and Marc Rossiter
