The Cryptic series yields quick edge response and aggressive feel with massive pop off the wake as requested by Josh Twelker. Shaped by Greg Nelson the Cryptic is a fast board incorporating a continuous rocker and slightly wider profile. The shape includes a subtle landing feature in the belly transitioning to dual concave tunnels exiting the tip & tail for an aggressive approach to the wake. The variable edge design is bevelled between the stance platform for a forgiving feel sharpening at tip & tail for secure edging. Twelker says the Cryptic is a free rider's delight with effortless carving and an explosive pop off the wake.

CONTINUOUS ROCKER
The rocker line that started it all. Speed and fluid, predictable pop truly define this rocker. Designed to carry great speed into the wake with minimal drag, a Continuous rocker generates a longer trajectory with similar pop every time.
BIOLITE 3 CORE
The secret recipe we have been perfecting since day one. This core material is the gold standard in the industry and used throughout our line. Biolite 3 is our lightest and most durable formula to date.
VARIABLE EDGE DESIGN
Edge shapes that differ from tip to tail, most commonly shifting to sharper edges near tip & tail from a more forgiving, rounded or beveled shape under stance.
MINIMUM SWING WEIGHT PROFILE
Thinning of the tip/tail profile for an effortless feel while spinning flat and during inverts.
VARIABLE THICKNESS PROFILE
Fluctuating thickness of the board, most commonly a thickness reduction on tip & tail outside the stance platform.
MONOCOQUE CONSTRUCTION
Integrating the top and bottom fiberglass layers into one. Generating a more durable board on side impacts to prevent delamination.
LAYERED GLASS
Our fiberglass is available in 3 weights depending on the board. Over time, traditional woven glass fibers will separate. With layered glass every Hyperlite deck will have the same pop off the double up year after year.
M6 INSERTS
Delivers a more secure fit of the bolts to the inserts, improving bolt retention keeping binding hardware locked down.
