Introducing the all-new Cartan 2-powered twintip—the lightest and most responsive board we've ever created. Featuring an on-the-fly rocker adjuster, the Imperator 7 offers unmatched responsiveness. Experience riding a true masterpiece.
Introducing CARTAN 2
Cartan 2 incorporates untwisted, unidirectional carbon fiber strands combined with minimal epoxy binders into a thin, flat, 30° scrim tailored to the exact board dimensions. The evenly distributed, straight fibers create a composite laminate with a lighter and more uniform microstructure than traditional woven-fabric pre-pregs. This enhanced filament-to-filament load transfer results in the incredibly dynamic Gen7, which is 100g lighter.
Introducing REVO
The innovative rocker adjuster, seamlessly integrated into the grab handle, allows you to quickly increase or decrease the Imperator 7’s rocker by 15mm, making it versatile for any riding style. Reduce the rocker to glide upwind with ease, or increase it when you're ready for some playful maneuvers.
Hull Design
The Imperator 7 retains its signature features, refined over two decades. The Ellipse channels energy to the fins and edges when needed while absorbing excess force. A double concave V-shaped keel slices through rough water, providing exceptional grip and stability. The hand-finished rails feature sharper, drag-reducing, tucked-under shapes that enable smooth, buttery turns.
