What does Patrik Hanes ride?

The wakeboarding season has begun and our rider Patrik Hanes was one of the first to choose the gear at our store. See what the most successful Czech wakeboarder rides.

Wakeboard and boots

Our team unit has a wide choice of equipment and makes good use of it every year. So let's start with what's under his feet the whole season - Hyperlite!

For several years, Patrik has been commited to the Union board, which turned this year into an all-wood core, and this is what he highly appreciates. This year, the Aulbach model from the limited edition with its catchy design was added, too. Hyperlite also introduces Defacto boots, which have a removable inner shoe. An ideal choice for Patrick and his "one foot" tricks or reel riding. We are not walking barefoot on stones!

Wetsuits

Another option that Patrik uses is the O'Neill wetsuit. Brand named after the neoprene inventor Jack O'Neill, which uses patented materials that give athletes maximum comfort, and our riders are no different.

Patrik rides proven Hyperfreak models, processed TechnoButter 3 and TBX3 materials, which are light, soft and flexible wetsuit parts.

Ultimate protection above all

The only protective elements of the wakeboarding equipment are the Bern helmet and a vest that highly protects from the impacts on the water surface or obstacles. Team helmet rebranding takes place once in every two years and on the water it is simply eye-catching.

  

Wakeboarding accessories

Other equipment only serves as accessories and is individual. For example, Patrik uses Swox sunscreen lotions that are water-resistant, After ponchos or WaxThat waxes for better slippage on the obstacles.

In case you have a chance to meet Patrik in person, do not hesitate and ask him for advice, wakeboarding is his life!
