Description

This is the board of choice for riders demanding the most from their equipment and aiming to push kiteboarding to the limit.

 

The new Raptor 2010 line continues to develop in the best direction. The Raptor became one of a kind as the Research & Development team got their job done. Close cooperation with many riders from all around the world brought the desired and once again astonishing results.

 

The 2010 Raptor builds up on the great performance of a really good balance of stiffness and flex with amazing pop for both comfortable and aggressive riding. In the development of the 2010 Raptor , Crazy-Fly focused on many important aspects to improve the overall riding performance of the board. Improved rocker line, progressive flex tips, shock absorbing system, new Quick Fix system II, and new straps are the most significant results of our developments for the Raptor 2010. The main advantage of the Raptor board is that you can use it for all new school freestyle tricks as well as for an aggressive freeride.

 

Finding the right balance between stiffness and flex, Crazy-Fly have created the progressive flex tips II technology, and brought the pop to the top. Meaning that the shock absorbing system, progressive flex tips II, enhanced pop, and the newly shaped tip’s outline, makes the take offs easier and the landings much softer, preventing your knees from pain.

 

Special 3D effect color changes colors like a chameleon from red to green, which makes the design very eye catching. The UV stabile top sheet foils assure that the design will maintain its looks even after direct tropic sunrays heat up the board.

 

Crazy-Fly have implemented new faster scoop rocker line and a slightly concaved bottom to make the 2010 Raptor faster and to improve its upwind abilities. To make every CrazyFly board more personalized, with the new super lightweight dual density EVA pads we included the option of adjusting the stance angle, so everybody is now able to adjust the stance angle to match all the preferences.

 

The Crazy-Fly Raptor 2010 still remains one of the few boards on the market build with full Nano Carbon construction in series production. The new CNC shaped Wood Tech Core II makes the board one of the lightest in the world. CNC shaped and hand fine finished 3 Dimensional ABS rails in combination with carbon layers and Wood Tech Core II are the heart of this unique board. The Crazy-Fly Raptor 2010 comes with Quick Fix straps, handle and G 10 fins, which match the design of the board.

 

It is very flexible but still aggressive enough. The New Shock Absorbing System offers a smooth and cool ride and you will be surprised with its unique flex and pop in performance riding guaranteed by Crazy-Fly's exclusive wood construction system with 4 axis composite. The Concave shaped bottom increases directional stability and offers top carving abilities.

 

The 2010 Raptor shape has an improved rocker line to make the board faster and enhance the upwind ability of the board. CrazyFly's unique tail shape helps the rider to load up an edge for higher jumps and better tricks. Concaved bottom is one of the main characteristics of the shape of CrazyFly kiteboards. The board is more stable in carves, easy to switch and rides smoothly.

 

Heavily focusing on the pads, straps, fins and grab handle to improve its riding properties and to make the mounting even easier and faster to fit all personal preferences. Super light weight dual density EVA pro pads are very durable and don’t get worn out easily. You can adjust the stance angle to fit your personal preference.

 

Comfort and quality of the EVA pads prevent your knees from any pain even after a long ride. Crazy-Fly have put on a toe step and a heel locker on the pads, so your feet always stay in the right position and enable the rider to fully control the board with ease.

 

Brand new 2010 straps are lighter and more comfortable than ever before due to improved Quick Fix system II which makes the adjustments of the straps very simple and fast. New carbon grab handle, which is stiff and light and G10 fins with a very thin profile in order to prevent drag make this the perfect board in all conditions.

Features

Comes Complete with:
Nanofibre Carbon Strong flex and twist. The result of Crazy-Fly's tight intensive research and tests with developments from carbon industry is Nano Fiber Carbon Technology exclusively used in the production process of CrazyFly kiteboards. What makes this system so unique is the higher tensile modulus and faster dynamic response, makes the flex of the boards so attractive and the pop so amazing.
Wood Tech Core II The heart of kiteboard is its core. The core of the board must be light, flexible and firm. It is very difficult to make a good core by using just one core material. What makes Crazy-Fly's board so unique is its combination of light and stiff materials used to produce a suitable core. Wood is a natural material with excellent mechanical properties. For production of 2010 boards Crazy-Fly have carefully chosen the best-fix kind of wood. The fibres of the wood selected for new system are continuous from one tip to other one.   Crazy-Fly have proven all the features of their successful system, and improved each of them. The best solution for kiteboard core on the market.
Tail Outline Shape After years of testing, CrazyFly’s designers decided to use the new tail outline on the boards. This new feature allows the rider to load up an edge when performing jumps, leading to more hang (air) time and better tricks.
Special 3D effect colour This new technology in the color industry caught the attention of CrazyFly’s designers. 3D special effect color changes shades from green to red, depending on the angle of the sunrays. This color makes the board eye catching and fashionable.
UV stable top sheet foils Co-operation with the world leader in top sheet industry allows Crazy Fly to use the latest worldwide developments for the production of our kiteboards. By using the best solutions in our production process we have consistency in high quality and tremendous performance, even under extreme stress situations on the sporting equipment. Our new UV stabile top sheet foil maintains its original colors even after hot tropical sunrays heat up the board. CrazyFly’s topsheets have excellent gliding ability, and maintain its cool look.
3D ABS Rails 3D ABS rails, perfectly shaped for perfect feeling. ABS is a high strength, very durable thermo-plastic material. The adherent bonding with upper and lower reinforcement carbon materials creates a torsion box, with high torsional stiffness. CNC shaped and hand fine finished rails can be found on all of Crazy Fly boards. Bright colours help you to find your board in the water.
Stance Angle Indicator / Adjustable Pads The position of inserts on the board to assemble in footpads offers stance width options. Our new Stance Angle Adjustable Pads enable the rider to adjust the stance angle, to fit your personal preference, in a few seconds. Wider stance boosts the dynamics of the ride, and stability when landing jumps.
Lightweight dual density EVA pads To save knees from pain and to keep the board light CrazyFly developed super lightweight dual density pads. Fusing the board with the rider’s feet ensures the best control over the board. Providing comfort for knees the pads are a bit softer under heel. Even after jumping time and time again, putting a lot of pressure on the pad, it returns to its original shape. Also these pads are very durable and maintain the original shape for a long time. Improved toe step and heel locker help a lot to keep feet in the right place, and also the top texture of the pads has great grip.
G-10 Fins The fastest and strongest fins. G10 is a legend. You can not find something better in fins production. Excellent strength, stiffnes and durability. The profile of our fins is still radically thin with minimum hydrodynamic resistance. 2010 line of fins is characterized by nice colors – it helps you to catch sight your board when it is lost.
Progressive flex tips II It is very complicated to make a mathematic simulator of flex which would be accepted by top riders. We have chosen the other way: to make an analytic search of human feelings of our riders and test riders. Crazy Fly improved their successful progressive flex tips on the boards. It is accomplished by allowing more flex on the tips only and making the central area of the board even stiffer.
Shock absorbing system After a couple hours of riding in choppy water your knees are tired and hurt. Crazy-Fly's new developed Shock Absorbing System damps the shocks from water and vibration of board during performance riding. The unique smooth feeling of riding is guaranteed with cooperation of our Shock Absorbing System and Progressive flex II control system. Both together, they make the CrazyFly board amazingly collected. Now you can ride while the sun is up in the sky.
Quick Fix strap system With our Quick fix strap system you just need a couple seconds to mount it on the board. Easy and simple, but the result is charming. The straps always stay in their position. In combination with our lightweight dual desity EVA pro pads you are able to change the position and angle of pads very easy and fast.
Concave Bottom Crazy-Fly simply believe in the concave bottom shape. This is one of the main characteristic features on our boards. The board is stable in carves, easy to switch, and marvelously smooth to control. It works ingenious during landing and helps you to come out of all possible troubles.

Reviews

The weapon for light wind! Ian Kay

First off - it has the most slickest finish! It turns the heads on the beach as it has a fantastic granite/graphite look that just stands out!

 

You will also be the first person out on the water due to the perfect length/width dimensions on this board. This really is the weapon for light wind! It tracks upwind in about 10-12 knots and the rail holds you in on the waves as well! Get one and you will be first out on the water!
