6'4 JS Industries Xero Gravity Carbotune - Easyrider

ON SALE - Board has minor blemish - See images

After six years of research and development, our 100% carbon construction is here. We've tested dozens of different layups around the world from wave pools to the ocean, and have settled on the unanimous favourite from JS and the Traktor Team in all conditions. The aim was always for endurance and performance unlike anything seen before in surfboard construction, and now we're here.

Xero Gravity is the next in line of our favourite fusions ever. Ridden the same dimensions as your Monsta Box, with the same magic rocker, this will be your all- rounder even more geared to high performance surfing than the updated Xero, which in comparison has the slightly flatter Blak Box rocker and a fuller outline. Xero Gravity also features a similar foil to the previous Xero, with foam hidden in the deck, but a slightly pulled down rail that's fine tuned for manoeuvrability & quick response.

About Carbotune:

The benchmark after making Formula 1 style surfboards for 25 years is all about getting the balance of weight and durability into a board that will perform better than ever. We’re using all of that documented data on what is the optimal weight for each number of litres, for each surfer, and the type of surfing that they do. All of that has gone into making sure these CarboTune boards come out at those ideal specs. It’s a finely tuned balance for weight and durability to equal the performance we want. What the construction comes back to is a relatively simple formula: Weight & Durability = Performance. That’s why it’s taken 6 years – these elements have finally come together with the ideal balance for any surfboard made in CarboTune to both perform and last.

Carbon maximizes the weight to stiffness ratio of a surfboard, and provides you with a craft that efficiently turns power into speed. Translated for surfers and shapers - carbon provides an instant transfer of energy. So everything you put into it, CarboTune will give you back. Response will be immediate to any power directed to the board from the surfer or wave. This means that both angles and weight of carbon layups play a huge role in the R&D process and decision making on the boards’ construction. The weight of our actual carbon fibre cloth used is lighter than all other carbon we tested throughout R&D. It’s also lighter than the carbon fibre cloth used in most other surfboard constructions available around the world.

We’ve decided on this exact weight for better flex, while the finished overall weight of the board is still optimised for maximum momentum and projection. We’ve found that this ideal overall weight is close to our pro level team weight in a PU board. For example, a 5’10” / 28.6L CarboTune Xero Gravity is 2.4kg / 5.3lbs, and a PU pro team board at the same dimensions & volume is usually 2.5kg / 5.5lbs.
