The HIPE Lethal combines a reference shape for wave riding and the practicality of our inflatable technology!
The HIPE Lethal is THE inflatable board for unconditional wave riding enthusiasts. Tight turns, above the lip action or freeflying from one bump to the other are done instinctively with the HIPE Lethal. Heir to the HIPE Pro which was the ultimate combination of the performance of rigid boards with the advantages of inflatables, it is the essential solution to combine sensations on the water and ease on land.

New Pro shapes
The HIPE Lethal is the narrowest board in our new HIPE Pro range.
With a sharp outline, it gains in glide for the takeoff: it’s stunning! It’s less wide than its inflatable counterparts in the range which means more speed on the water, fewer touchdowns, less braking in case of contact with water and more control in extreme angles.
A round tail for even more glide, minimal bulk in turns and explosive repop.
Its rounded surf point nose and its contained length make it very incisive in changes of direction such as top turns for example. And in jumps its reduced dimensions allow you to send all the tricks.

New rigid rail
To improve takeoff, our designers developed a rigid rail at the tail of the board. This allows for a clean release of water streams at the end of the hull, resulting in better glide before flying and boosting acceleration. You pump less and fly earlier.

The success of an idea, the optimization of a concept
Since its innovative 2-in-1 board concept entered the world of foil, the HIPE has remained the go-to choice for those who want to combine ease of use with performance on the water. This is precisely what it offers—a high-end inflatable board with a full composite support, designed to faithfully transmit all the rider's intentions to the foil without any wobble or latency.
A 2-in-1 board often copied but never equaled, which blew away the last reservations that the most demanding riders might have had about inflatable boards. Particularly with the HIPE Pro, now available in the Lethal and Stunt shapes which won World Cup titles in their rigid versions. Our experience allows us today to bring together these shapes and the reference technology in inflatables, for maxed out sensations on the water, and unparalleled ease of use on land.
