Core Choice 6 Kiteboard

Core really knows what they are doing in manufacturing kites as well as board building! This board has everything one wants in a high performance twintip. Incredibly light and the channels provide great hold when setting an edge to load up and boost. You can't go wrong with with Choice 6

This board can boost! The relative stiffness of this board means it can load and pop with tremendous power. Lots of channeling on the bottom translates to great grip and edging. I ride relatively large boards which means heavy boards, but the Choice is so light, I found board-offs to be so much easier! I have been riding the 140cm, and for me it is a perfect size; small enough to really send it it and throw big air board offs, yet also enough surface area to manage the slightly under powered sessions and still blast upwind.

I haven’t had tons of time with this board yet but I am already really enjoying it. Holds an edge really well, and I found the agility great. The board just swallows chop too. You still have tons of control outside of the slicks in more open water. Has tons of pop and it feels orety forgiving on landings as well.

If you are looking to improve your jumps, a dedicated jumping board makes a big difference in getting the pop you need to jump higher. The Choice is my overall favorite jumping board at the moment. The rocker and channeling on the bottom help you load and pop much better than an all around free ride board, and the lightweight construction is easy on your legs and core while in the air. My only complaint with the Choice 5 was that its all black construction made it hard to see when you lost it. The tasteful splash of color that Core has added to the Choice 6 makes it much easier to find.
