Cross V8 Silver 94

One board that follows the wind, not the category Some sessions start flat and fast. Others build into strong wind, short-period chop, or a wave that suddenly makes you change plans. Most don’t stay the same from launch to last run. The Cross V8 is built for exactly those days. From powered freeride sessions to strong wind bump & jump—and when the swell lines up, confident wave riding—the Cross V8 adapts as conditions evolve, without forcing you into a single way of sailing. For 2026, a completely reworked shape, two additional sizes (74L and 124L), and a series of carefully tuned refinements expand the Cross’ comfort zone even further, while preserving its fast, lively feel. Freeride Speed, Composed Control The Cross V8 retains the quick planing and strong top-end speed that define its freeride character, but now feels more settled as conditions become demanding. The refined outline and updated shape work together to smooth out chop and maintain a predictable ride when the wind builds and the water turns unsettled. Whether blasting on flat water or pushing through heavy chop, the board stays controlled and confidence-inspiring, letting you stay relaxed while the speed builds naturally. Built for Strong Wind Bump & Jump When the wind turns on, the Cross V8 comes alive. Its balanced shape absorbs chop efficiently while maintaining speed, making it easy to stay trimmed, loaded, and ready to react as ramps appear. Double-Density Shock Absorbers positioned beneath the footstraps cushion hard landings and filter vibration in rough water. Combined with a triple-layer footpad, they reduce strain on the rider’s joints and help keep long, fully powered sessions feeling smooth and controlled. The result is a board that encourages jumping, accelerates quickly between gusts, and remains predictable on landings—ideal for sailors who spend their sessions chasing wind-driven terrain rather than flat water speed alone. Wave-Ready When It Counts When the water starts moving, the Cross V8 doesn’t need a change of board. Redesigned rails provide improved grip and edge control, allowing tighter lines and more confident carving once you’re on the wave. In European wave conditions, the Cross delivers fast take-offs, strong upwind ability, and enough speed to link sections comfortably—bringing it closer to a dedicated wave board while remaining far more versatile across the session. Tuned to You Multiple footstrap positions and a range of fin options allow the Cross V8 to be tuned precisely to your style and the conditions of the day. Set it up freeride-oriented for speed and comfort, or adjust it toward a more maneuver-focused feel when jumping or riding waves. From powered reaches to take-offs and drawn-out turns, the board responds immediately to input, adapting as your session evolves. One Board, Many Sessions The Cross V8 isn’t about committing to one discipline. It’s about staying on the water longer, sailing more freely, and making the most of whatever conditions show up. Fast, controlled, and adaptable, it’s the board you reach for when you don’t want to decide in advance.
