Step on the new Carrera 3 Carbon, and you’ll wonder if it was custom-built for you. From the first moments on the water, it’s easy to accelerate and release onto a plane. Once powered up, the board sits high, flies effortlessly over chop and surf, and stays perfectly trimmed through lulls. When you are ready to jibe, the refined outline, dome deck, and wave-inspired rail taper offer confidence to push harder and exit even faster than what you came into. The result is an exhilarating ride across all conditions.

Construction.
We’ve re-engineered our build process around a continuous layering of Biaxial, Unidirectional, and Plain Weave carbon, creating a Carbon Monocoque™ that ties together mast track, stance area, rails, and bottom into one cohesive structure—free of excess patches or fillers. Combined with a full S-Glass and Hyper Skin™ full Top & Bottom Sandwich layout, the result is a lighter, stronger board—identical in quality to our Maui customs since 1994.

Description.
This is not a Blue Volar, and it does not have entry-level insert options. This is the All New Carrera 5 Carbon, a Raceboard with a FreeWave deck that lets you connect the sole of your foot with the deck below, paired with a race rocker & cut-outs, nothing stops you from flying at max speed with the confidence over chop and open ocean swells that you only felt on your wave board—built like a race board, still strong to handle all the excitement.
The all-new Carrera 5 Carbon combines our latest Race and Freewave design knowledge, fusing speed, limitless range, and ultimate comfort into a single shape. It is exceptionally light, responsive, and exhilarating to ride, and it will keep you out there having the most fun you’ve ever had windsurfing.
Slanted Single inserts seamlessly link the Outboard & Inboard footstraps range into one, allowing you to tailor your stance for rail trimming speed runs to a more relaxed inboard freeriding.
Each size comes with the New MFC® Liquid Pro Fin, Footstraps, and our KT Single-to-Dual Density Pads—sloped and segmented for reduced drag, premium grip, and shock absorption
Speed.
Fusing Speed, Limitless Range, and Ultimate Comfort into a Single Shape. An Exceptionally Light, Responsive, and Durable Ride.
Shape.
Shorter Length & Optimized Volume: This generation is a couple of centimeters shorter than the previous generation. With a higher entry, more volume is placed right under the rider, delivering an intuitive ride.
117 Stock Model.
Agility.
Record Crossings Speeds, Fastest Jibes, still as Comfortable as a Wave Board.
Bottom
Refined Race Bottom: A blend of V and double concaves under the mast track (Direct from our Racing boards) breaks down chop for a smoother ride. The shallower V off the tail cut-outs ensures clean water release and top-end speed. A new higher entry, paired with V and double concave through the midsection of the board, tapering to a faster, shallower V of the tail.
Deck
Domed Deck: Keeps your feet 100% connected and offers leverage over the rails, on the straight lines, or while jibing.
Rocker
Race Rocker Line & Cut-Outs.
Rails
Round and forgiving at the front, tapered and sharp at the back.
Stance
Simplified, lighter, and ready to plug and play—the Magical Bump & Jump Freeriding Geometry. Our new flatwater boards are being optimized with fewer inserts positioned at a refined angle to create more functional stance options, including positions that bridge the gap between too far in or too far out. This streamlined approach reduces perforations, making the boards lighter and stronger without losing versatility.
Tail
Wider Tail & Parallel Rail Line: A slightly wider tail and straighter rail line further maximize planing efficiency.
Inserts.
The Carrera 5 features a single-angle insert accommodating Outboard (Advance) and Inboard (Intermediate) positions. This design allows riders to shift forward for a more centered stance or further back for increased leverage on the rail. By reducing the number of perforations and insets, we’re keeping the boards lighter, stronger, and simpler to set up while offering versatility for different riding styles and skill levels.
Compared.
Carrera vs. Bolt.
The Carrera offers a smoother ride over harsh chop, surf, and open-ocean crossings through its dommier deck, whereas the Bolt is a dedicated Freerace board, primarily to be ridden leveraging between the rail and the fin.
