The GO boards are the original all-rounders that offer the blend of performance, fun, comfort and value that have marked the modern era of windsurfing history. Having pioneered the widestyle revolution, the GO boards have become the World's most popular boards and the benchmark design for the progressive freerider. The 2008 edition continues the GO legacy with an extended range of six new super-slim models that raises the bar once more.
The GO 122, 133, 144 and 155 share the same shapes as the Futura models. In the quest for more performance across a wider wind range, the Futura brought with them the advent of the thinner-wider shape concept. The widths have become as wide as that of the GOs. So with high-performance and easy-stability meeting in terms of design, it was natural for the GO and the Futura shapes to merge. The two larger sizes (166 and 177) are GO-specific, designed especially for extra stability, ease and lightwind performance with widths that extend beyond 85cm.
In summary, the new GO boards' combination of extra-thin profiles, wide widths and iSonic engineering create a unique package that offers it all - control, comfort, wind range, early planing, smooth jibing and maximum top speed: sheer performance never seen before with boards that are so easy.
