HOP SERIES
FREESTYLE / WAKESTYLE
The Hop is Xenon’s true Stomper. If you’ve heard that our Laluz is the right board for 99% of kiteboarders, then you should know that the Hop is aimed at the remaining 1% of true wakestyle purists.
The Hop unleashes its full potential when ridden with your favorite pair of boots. Tame this wakestyle beast and you will be rewarded with one of the most aggressive pop on the market.
With its expertly crafted stiff flex and wakeboard-inspired pronounced rocker, the new Hop lets you load up hard without ever giving up under pressure.
Heavy landings on the Hop always stay smooth and controlled, allowing you to keep your kite as low as possible and preserving your knees when coming in hot.
Whether hitting obstacles at the kite park or grinding natural features, the Hop is ready to take on whatever you throw at it. Reinforced inserts will give you peace of mind when riding hard and we’ve also positioned them in line so can you swap your heelside edge over time.
With the Hop, Xenon wishes to honour your devotion to the complexity of unhooked freestyle by offering you the best tool for your trade. It might not be a board for everyone, but it may just be the one for you.
