2011 Hyperlite Franchise wakeboard

Not a bad couple of weeks for Jimmy LaRiche. First, he scores the first-ever cover of TransWorld WAKEBOARDING. Then he unveils his first-ever pro model — the new Hyperlite Franchise wakeboard — at Surf Expo. Designed by newly crowned Legend Greg Nelson, the Franchise features Hyperlite’s lightweight Bio 3 core, super-durable Enduro base, and a unique set of vertically running spines that are designed to not only soften landings but edge out of them more quickly as well. 2011 Hyperlite Franchise wakeboard sizes: 138 and 142
