CONSTRUCTIONS

  • CARBON PRO

No other build has ever moved so effortlessly and stayed so deep in the pocket as this innovative design. Every component—bio-resin, glass, core, and ink—is engineered with a singular focus on weight distribution. Proudly crafted at the birthplace of Ronix in the USA.

  • Carbon air core 3

    This Italian-imported core features a tested carbon layup. It’s molded and wrapped in carbon, delivering unmatched torsional stiffness

  • Flyweight pro

    Combining the lightweight feel of a Flyweight with the enhanced responsiveness of a Carbon Air Core 3, this construction merges the best elements of two of our top-selling high-end designs.

  • Flyweight

    Less is more. These cores are crafted with a minimalist approach, capturing the essence of pure surfing. For many riders, lighter truly means better.

  • Element Core

    A 100% paulownia wood wrap encases our lightweight surf core, blending science and nature for enhanced response and improved dampening.

  • Koal Classic

    A hand-shaped design crafted from a core similar to its saltwater counterparts, combined with classic wood laminates for enhanced dampening.

  • Standard core

    Putting Ronix's affordable core on a surf diet, making even their price-point boards with vacuum-bagged surf cores.

  • Tuff Tech

    We took our popular Koal Classic, molded it, and wrapped it in our ultra-durable surface skin. This lightweight, budget-friendly option with protective laminate reduces water resistance for a smoother ride.

  • Marsh "mellow"

    Combining the feel of a traditional surfer, the durability of a wakeboard, and the forgiving ride of a marshmallow, this design uses our standard core construction wrapped in a soft exterior deck material.

SURF TRACTION

  • RECYCLED FOAM

    Eco-approved recycled foam traction, designed with a focus on sustainability and resource conservation. Performance-oriented pattern enhances grip for better control.

  • BLENDED GROOVED EVA

    EVA with precision-cut grooves, combined with a soft rubber compound for a cushioned feel without compromising grip. Uses a similar foam compound as the machined EVA, enhanced with extra comfort for a smoother experience.

  • MACHINED EVA

    High-performance EVA designed to endure years of waves, offering as much tradition as foam allows. Most boards feature arch support for your back foot, concave shaping for your front foot to enhance responsiveness, and an extra tall kicktail for increased leverage.

  • WAX MAT CUSH

    A thin silicone mat that offers the feel of your favorite surf wax—without the mess—paired with a layer of soft cushioned EVA. Crafted by Ronix's friends at Surfco in Hawaii, and also available for aftermarket purchase.

  • WAX MAT DIRECT

Board Thickness

  • Thin

    The thinnest profile for riders seeking maximum connection with the water. It enables a more engaged surfing experience, allowing riders to use a shallow fin—or no fin at all—thanks to the board’s natural grip.

  • Standard

    This thickness is perfect for riders who prefer the classic feel of a traditional wakesurf cross-section—not too thick, not too thin. It provides more sensitivity to the water than thicker boards, while offering greater buoyancy and push compared to a skimmer.

  • Thick

    This design offers the most push of any in our lineup. These thicker boards are built for speed, accelerating quickly in a straight line, and allowing riders to surf farther from the boat.
  • HARD RAILS
    High Speed carves for riders that like to jump on the gas pedal.
  • BLENDED RAILS
    Accelerated turns combined with a Sunday afternoon cruise.
  • FULL RAILS
    Smooth, predictable arc for a classic surf feel.
