DARK HORSE 97
The redesigned 97 represents a significant leap forward, seamlessly integrating the swift profile of the 2019 model with a slightly softer, contemporary rail. Drawing from the insights gained across the 2020 to 2022 boards, this fusion results in a board that effortlessly handles strong winds, boasts explosive speed, and exhibits superior gybing capabilities compared to any of our previous models. It outperforms both the enchanting 2019 and the current 2023 boards, which clinched the top spot at the 2023 Defi Wind. The eagerly anticipated new 97 is set to redefine your windsurfing experience.

THE WORKHORSE
The odd, yet important size. In between medium and large, the Dark Horse 122 has the horsepower to carry through the light breeze 9.0 conditions, yet makes its pilot feel comfortable should the wind and chop increase.
A larger version of the explosive DH 117, transferring its characteristics to an all-round, which very much could end up being your regular workhorse on the water!
The 122 features our new Future Fly tail design cut-outs for maximum planing power and release, and a clean outline complemented by smooth rails.

Get planing in no wind, ride a big board like you would ride a small one. Our light wind competition board features a short and rounded outline.
This board will plane very fast yet maintain lots of control in the roughest of waters. The tight entry and smooth exit in and out of the jibes are extraordinary, a feature which gives a big advantage on the racecourse, where you will be up against competitors riding on bulky boards.
Future Fly tail design cut-outs for max planing power and release, flat section outline under the back heel allows for comfort and power while engaging the rail. This board has a low rocker designed for maximum speed.
