When the wind is optional

Built to get you going

The Rise is the ultimate light wind twintip — wide tips and a large surface area get you riding when others can’t. Developed with the Thrive LiteX, this combo delivers unmatched light wind performance, comfort, and grip.

The Outline

At 156cm long and 46cm wide, the Rise features a distinctive outline with a negative curve and super-wide tips. The result is maximum surface area for fast planing and exceptional upwind ability — even in next to no wind.

Unique Rocker Line

Flat rocker in the middle gives the board great upwind ability. “Kicked” rocker in the tips gives grip, control and comfort.

Innovative Fin Setup

The rocker line in combination with a large 45mm centre fin and a smaller 35mm heel fin delivers exceptional grip and upwind tracking — with minimal drag and no unwanted catch. The result is the most grippy, easy-to-use light wind board on the market.

Narrow Stance

A narrow stance keeps your weight centred through the board, helping you get up and going faster and maintaining balance in light, unpredictable conditions.

Made in Europe

The Harlem Rise is crafted in Europe and delivered in eco-friendly, plastic-free packaging — from workshop to water, with sustainability in mind.

Designed by Ralf Groesel and Aaron Hadlow

With its distinctive outline and unique rocker line, the Rise delivers unmatched grip and effortless control — the easiest light wind board to ride.
