2025 LIBTECH FLY-PAD WAKESURF
Description
Mike Olson’s dream, the Fly Pad, is a scaled down, teched up, ultra speedy, wake expanding, high performance, skateboard influenced wake surf shape. The game changing Fly Pad comes in three short, magical alien sizes: 3’10”, 4’ and 4’3” . You ride it 6-8” shorter than your normal board. Mike is a big fellow and rides the 4’ and has never been happier! There are so many features designed into this small fun enhancing dream stick it clogged our CAD programs… The plan shape features a nar-row bullet like outline that is quick rail to rail, has a speedy straight rail line, and a wide fast tail with super pop. This is combined with a fl atter rocker body and precision bevelled nose that fi ts radically into small spaces. Mike added some critical details he dialled in through years of experiments… hard tucked rails that release water and create lift wrap the entire shape and he added two speed generating PAD “particle accelerator dish” concaves, one in the tail and one in the nose. The deck features a concave under the front foot to maximize the skateboard feel. Now you can fly with Mike on his space expanding, high speed explorations to the magical delicious nano centre of wake surf design. Art by Ben Lardy.
