Best for: Riders who want a dependable, 'locked-in' feel that removes the guesswork from carving and crossing the wake.

The Liteside + Haze package is built for those who value consistency above all else. Instead of a board that feels loose or 'squirrely,' the Liteside is engineered to stay stable and predictable throughout your ride. It’s a setup that rewards smooth technique, offering a reliable feel that helps you focus on your body position and balance rather than fighting the gear.

• Consistent Lift: The board’s profile is designed to provide a reliable and familiar pop every time you leave the water. Because it sits slightly deeper and more secure in the water, you get a consistent sensation that makes learning to time your jumps much more manageable.
• Refined Edge Control: The rail and base are shaped to provide a secure grip on the water. This ensures that when you initiate a turn, the board tracks exactly where you point it without the tail sliding unexpectedly. It gives you the confidence to lean harder into your carves and maintain your line toward the wake.
• Supportive Haze Bindings: The Haze bindings provide the necessary ankle support to control the board with precision. The open-toe design allows for a versatile fit across different foot sizes, while the secure lacing system ensures your foot stays planted. This direct connection is key for translating your movements into a controlled reaction from the board.
• Predictable Tracking: To help the rider maintain a straight line, the Liteside uses a removable centre fin, preventing the board from feeling erratic when you’re just finding your feet. Once you've got some confidence on the board, remove it for a looser, more fun feel.

Our Verdict: The Liteside + Haze is the go-to choice for an all-rounder that prioritizes stability. It excels at making the fundamentals feel easy, offering a predictable platform that doesn't demand perfection to enjoy. This is a setup that does exactly what you expect it to do, every time.
