The T4A PROJECT - Our best kept windsurfing secret EVER (Ep. 1) :

Over the past year, we have been secretly working on bringing a new idea to life: The T4A Project. 🤫🌊
Together with chief designer Patrik Diethelm and sail designer John Skye, our goal was to expand and refine our Wave Range. Rather than starting with a design on a computer, we wanted to understand exactly what made the existing boards and sails successful, where they could potentially be improved, and which new concepts could complement the lineup.
In this first episode, John and our marketing manager Henning put the current wave range through its paces across a wide variety of conditions. Before designing the next generation of wave gear, it's essential to establish a clear starting point—and that means understanding the strengths and limitations of the current range.

Watch Part One of our journey to the T4A Project.
From the Canaries, to Sylt, Blavand, Klitmoller, China, and back to Gran Canaria... the journey begins here!




In this second episode we're taking a closer look at how a new range of Waveboards is coming together. From collecting all the feedback from riders to turning these ideas into actual prototypes, in this episode we're taking you behind the scenes of our windsurf board development.

How windsurf boards are actually tested… | T4A

35 boards, multiple prototypes, and one simple question: how do you know if a windsurf board is actually better? In Episode 3, we take the prototypes to Western Australia and put them through real-world testing, comparing different ideas, gathering feedback from the team riders, and finding out what actually works on the water. Some ideas move forward, others reveal their limits—and every session gets us one step closer to the final boards.
