Since being started in 2006 by Wakeboarding kingpins Parks Bonifay and Danny Harf, Ronix Wakeboards has created an undeniably fantastic reputation for creating some of the most high performance, yet reliable equipment on the market. Ronix pride themselves on building equipment that doesn’t quite conform to the usual wakeboarding guidelines, bringing both creativity and science together has helped them design some of the most remarkable products out there to date.

Here at S2AS we believe in stocking only the highest quality equipment on the market, so when it came to choosing what brands to stock this year; Ronix was a no-brainer. The only hard part was choosing which of their fantastic models of boots and boards we should take, but after much deliberation we came to a conclusion. So here they are.

The WAKEBoards

2017 Ronix Kinetic Project – Flexbox 1 (138)

A board that has a continuous flex from tip to tail and rail to rail. The cable beast from Ronix for 2017 continues delivering the ultimate in board feel and top water speed. Offering greater durability and reduced friction on the water with their signature Speedwalls, they took the Kinetik Series from last year and replaced the foam with wood – but most importantly they added Flexbox. Ronix realised that there are 2 styles of high end park riders which is why they created Flexbox 1 and Flexbox 2, each with distinct pressure points on features and leaving the water, in turn tailoring to each and every rider on the cable. Flexbox 1 is created for riders that like a softer mid section allowing the centre of the board to really bend into a press. Once in a press, the slightly stiffer tip/tail allows the rider to really pivot off the feature. Through the S2AS testing we have also found that this model has more of a solid snap off kickers, and works better for air tricks due to a rider needing added support when they flick off the end of the board.

KEY FEATURES:

• Flexbox 1; Stiffer tips and a softer mid-section.
• Ronix’s Signature Speedwalls
• Grip & Release Technology
• Dominik Hernler Pro Model

2017 Ronix Kinetic – Flexbox2 (138 & 144)

On any given day there could be hundreds of pro riders riding at the local cable park. Through these 100’s of hours of testing, it really became clear to the S2AS Team that in the ever-changing cable world that there are 2 high end styles. The 2nd style features the exact same construction, profile, and rocker as the Flexbox 1, but has totally different pressure points. Flexbox 2 is the exact opposite – with a stiffer belly and the softest tip/tail available, a more rigid mid section was designed so a rider can rock into a press, then once locked in, a softer end tip/tail section creates more ability to move side to side, or just exaggerate the angle of a press. Designed and ridden by the world’s best park rider, Dominik Hernler.

KEY FEATURES:

• Flexbox 2; Stiffer Mid-Section with Flexier Tips.
• Ronix’s Speedwalls
• Grip & Release Technology
