Hyperlite’s Tribute Wakeboard

HyperliteTribute125

HyperliteTribute250The Tribute is a new wakeboard shape for Hyperlite. Released in 2008 the Tribute Wakeboard is built off of a 2.55" continuous rocker line it carries awesome speed into the wake and all the pop you need.

Combined with a variable edge design which rolls from soft between your feet to a sharp cupped rail tip and tail, this wakeboard is as quick and responsive as they come. A new feature that strays from traditional Hyperlite shapes however is the Tributes shorter curved molded in fins. Ending almost two inches from the tip and tail of the wakeboard, its just enough fin to know its there and working but nothing to delay release off the wake. All in all the Tribute is a great new addition to the Hyperlite wakeboard line, a shape and a ride Hyperlite has never offered.

I reach for the VHF to radio the lockmaster in charge of Erie Canal’s Lock 32 dead ahead. Our boat spins gently in the current like a maple key in a mud puddle.

“This is Onondaga,” I say. “Headed westbound and requesting passage.”
