The new Code Reds

Here are some pics from the last session at Lake Neusiedler on Saturday, when it was windy for the whole day. The new Code Reds turned out to twist great, accelerate awesome and I like the handling. I was really scared how the new sized 7,0 will work. In the last years Severne had a 6,6 and later with the Code Reds a 6,7. Till last week I used the 6,7 a lot and was really confident with this size. It worked great on the 101 and also fine on the 86. Now I put the 7,0 on the 101 and it feels like made for the 101. The bigger size, boomlength increased from 198 – 200 cm at the old 6,7 to 212 cm. The board got more control, lift and better carving performance inside the jibe.
The new 6,2 feels more powerful compared to the old 6,1 and bigger as well. This new Code Red size breaths more at the leach. I can´t expect to test the 8,1 and 8,8. 8,1 will be interesting. It gets rigged with a 460 cm long mast combined with a 40 cm
Thanks a lot to Ronny Wildner for the nice shots and check out his blog: http://www.beachhawk.net
