PYRO 74

PYRO
Philip Köster Pro Wave
Designed in collaboration with 5 x World Champion Philip Köster, the PYRO will light your fire.
The PYRO is a complete redesign. New shape. New bottom contours. New construction. Faster to plane. Sharper on the wave.
Volume distribution shifted forward gets you up and moving earlier. A wider tail section with thinner, refined rails increases bite and maneuverability. Foot straps repositioned further back put you over the tail; more leverage, tighter turns.
This combination of forward volume, wider tail, and rear strap positioning extends the effective range of every size. Sail a smaller board with earlier planing confidence, or step up a size and still rip on the wave. One board covers more of what the ocean throws at you.
The bottom shape progresses from Vee concave through flat concave into double concave for smoother rail-to-rail transitions, faster acceleration, and predictable grip through turns.
With 5 slot boxes, the PYRO is highly versatile and can be tuned to your preference and the conditions.
Quad The most stable option and the delivered setup. When it’s big and extra grip is required, a 4-fin setup is dependable and solid.
Thruster Gets up and going earlier. Better able to deal with strong currents and gusty conditions.
Twin The loosest option. Super fun and maneuverable. When it’s windy and there’s waves to play around in, this is Philip’s everyday choice.
The HEX4 system makes it quick and easy to change fin setups; experiment and find what works best for you.
Aggressive aesthetics. PK performance. SV attention to detail.

SALES VALUES
/ Complete redesign; this is not an update. New shape, new construction, new bottom contours. Strong story to tell.
/ Philip Köster signature board; the most recognized name in wave sailing stands behind this product.
/ One board covers more conditions; wider effective range per size reduces the need for multiple boards in a quiver.
/ Forward volume + wider tail + rear straps = earlier planing AND better surfing. Customers no longer have to choose between the two.
/ Size consolidation works in the customer’s favor; the 109 replaces both the 105 and 113 without compromise. The 66 covers what the 62 and 68 used to.
/ Lighter and more durable construction simultaneously. Not a trade-off; a genuine upgrade.
/ Ships with Quad setup ready to go. Three fin configurations out of the box with included NYCA fins.
/ HEX4 system means customers can switch setups on the beach in minutes. Low barrier to experimentation.
/ 8 sizes from 66 to 109 covers the full range of rider weights and conditions.
/ NYCA fins included; no additional fin purchase needed. Higher durability and performance than traditional G10 or RTM.
