The Pie is the fast, stylish, and maneuverable swallow, ideal for light/medium wind and sluggish waves.

Introduction

The Pie kiteboard is a modern swallow, fast, maneuverable, and comfortable for surfing with style.

With its acceleration and outstanding upwind ability for a kite surfboard, it performs in side-on/onshore conditions and less powerful waves. All you have to do is choose a wave, surf it all the way down before easily and quickly repositioning yourself out the back to start again.

In the turns, it’s really a board that boosts your style. It’s easy, smooth, and wicked if you ask it to be. Generous in surface area, it surfs perfectly without traction. You set your kite and focus on your moves in the wave, enjoying maximum surfing.

The addition of channels boosts your board:

Control of your trajectories and directional stability is more important, allowing for more serene supports to push your limits in turns as well as in full-speed chop.
They slightly tighten the rocker in selected sections. The flow is optimized, and the board’s character is upgraded.
By channeling the water, they significantly accelerate the flows and thus your speed.
Real shock absorbers, they dissipate the impact of chop, and landings are softer.
Finally, they provide more natural stiffness to the composite, and more resistance to breakage.

On flat water, its qualities of relaunch, speed, and upwind performance work wonders. Easy to handle in transitions, it’s a hyper-friendly board that always keeps you smiling.

Its large surface area and thin rails are a magical combo in strapless freestyle. The pop is clean, and landings are easy on this forgiving board. The prominent nose loves tacks and freestyle tricks such as nose slides. Its large surface area keeps the board stuck to your feet in the wind. It’s really cool for all levels of freestyle.

It’s the magical board to do everything with style, performance, and ease!

Outline

The Pie’s outline is very progressive, so the highly buoyant tail doesn’t limit maneuverability. Its very smooth curves allow for very intuitive maneuverability. You engage in turns and increase pressure at will, without any breaks. It’s a very healthy behavior that allows you to take advantage of this large-surface board. Buoyant, stylish, and maneuverable at the same time!

Tail

The swallow tail provides astonishing rail-to-rail action and a lot of maneuverability in the waves. The rail extends all the way to the end of the board to guide it in its trajectory. And the precisely balanced swallow lightens the pressure on the back foot in turns by reducing the surface area at the tail. The rail goes all the way to the tail but not the volume: that’s the secret of a good swallow.

Hull

The hull design is very important to combine strong grip when sailing and maneuverability in surfing. The wide channels provide better directional control. They channel water and accelerate flows to provide superior speed in waves and navigation. They also offer more smoothness in water contact despite gaining rigidity and strength in the board’s structure. You’re more radical, fluid, comfortable, and totally in control.

Rocker

The relaxed rocker allows for early planing and a good balance of heading/speed.

Nose

The round point nose offers ideal buoyancy in transitions and facilitates relaunches. Finally, the overall volume is generous, but relative to the large surface area, it’s very discreet and provides particularly efficient thin rails.

FSP 2X Kitesurf Technology

The FSP 2X technology is easily repairable when new in case of a Ding. The PVC foam of the sandwich is waterproof and prevents water from entering on everyday shocks. The EPS foam blank does not deteriorate because it is really protected from water. And the repairs have a much larger support to stick on and blend seamlessly with the surrounding material.

This technology offers, at an affordable price, the incomparable strength/lightness ratio of full vacuum PVC Sandwich.

3D Shape on modeling software.
Preshape by the numerical control for total reliability.
Shape control by traditional templates, finishing of the last mm 100% by hand.
100% Epoxy Board and EPS Blank Foam: solid and lightweight.
Deck, hull and rails in PVC Vacuumed Sandwich: incomparable strength and incredible dynamism.
Deck: integral PVC/Fiberglass Sandwich composed of a high-density PVC foam core and 2 layers of 4oz fiberglass and 1 layer of 6oz Biaxial fiberglass, fiberglass reinforcements on sensitive areas.
Hull: integral PVC/Fiberglass Sandwich composed of a high-density PVC foam core and 2 layers of 4oz fiberglass and 1 layer of 6oz Biaxial fiberglass, fiberglass reinforcements on the sensitive areas.
Specific Foil reinforcements: high-density PVC block housing the two US Rail Boxes. Three layers of carbon cover the Boxes. Laminated PVC slats connect the reinforcement to the deck for maximum durability.
Rails: the PVC Sandwich structure completely covers the rails: increased structural strength, very good shock resistance.
Hot Coat integrated Tinted Resin: nobility of the process, weight reduction and solidity of the finish.
Matt custom finish, hand-made, for weight reduction and better glide.

Buying guide

For whom ?

From beginners to pros who love surfing with style.

The beginner will appreciate its natural glide and ease. Transitions are easy, both the first jibes and tacks.

The pro will love its performance in surfing and freestyle.

For What ?

From surfing in light to medium wind, to freestyle in the wind, that’s the program of the Pie.

What size ?

Ideal conditions ?

Ideal wave size: from almost nothing to shoulder high.

Power: it performs best in soft to normal waves.

Aspect: it goes everywhere, even in choppy water and wind.

What’s the ideal kite ?

The Pie kiteboard will work wonders with a Freewave but also with a Unik for a light and maneuverable kite in surfing.

Quiver mates?

You can supplement the low range with a kite foil board when the wind is really light.

When the wind is stronger, more side-on, and the waves more substantial, a Lethal will allow you to go even further in radicality.

In light wind, a Matata will be a real complement for freeride or surfing in soft waves.

And in freestyle, a Catch kiteboard or a Fatal will be true complementary tools.

What adjustments?

The PIE kiteboard is mounted in quad with FCSII boxes. You are free to mount the fin set of your choice. All FCSII fin models are available on our online site.

In quad for more grip, and a more skate-like feel in a small quad (4x90mm for example).

115mm twins in the rear boxes for super smooth surfing and stunning snaps.

Strapped or strapless?

Riding strapless is sexy because it feels free. You get the sensations of surfing and have mobility on the board to play in the waves. It’s a very pure style of riding but difficult to master.

With straps, you’re sure your board will stay attached to your feet, even in the most committed aerial maneuvers. You’ll have much more control and performance one step above.

So it’s up to you to see if sensation prevails over performance. Place your straps in the central position (3rd hole) for the front, and the same for the rear strap if you always ride with straps.

If you want to be able to take out the back foot for transitions and surfing, place the rear strap in the first hole.
