BOAT / GRIP / BOOST
The 2022 Pill is 100% carbon wrapped from tip to tail on top and bottom, with an additional surface layer of 12K carbon - the lightest and stiffest variant of the carbon family - throughout the belly. The purpose of all this? To create the most explosive pop imaginable for advanced boat riding styles. The belly of the Pill is the most rigid we’ve ever created which means when you hit the wake with speed, the pop is immediate with no energy wasted. Carrying speed into the flats has never been easier than with the 2022 Pill, and when it comes time to touch down the V-shaped spine helps to disperse water and soften landings without sacrificing speed. It’s fast and free overall with the perfect amount of grip when you need it most.
