Centre channel

The first change Appletree made was to add a single centre channel on the bottom of the board, right between the feet. This increases the board upwind ability by reducing the rocker in the middle of the board. Making the board a bit more user friendly.

When carving, the board follows the rail line which still has quite a bit of rocker, to allow for tight turns in the pocket.

Double grab rails

Another unique feature is the double grab rail. The Applino V2 now has grab rails on both the deck AND the bottom of the board. This gives an even better grip when doing board-off freestyle tricks

Kick in the tail

The added kick in the tail helps loosen up the board and it also helps when landing reverse.

Outline and rocker

The rocker is moderate to high. With a single concave running into a V behind the front fins. All there to make the board loose and snappy while maintaining control.

The Applino V2 is thin throughout with a slightly wider outline compared to a more traditional Klokhouse Noseless. This makes the rail bite a bit more so you can really put pressure on the board when initiating a jump. The wider front gives you an easier landing area.

Fin setup 

The Applino V2 comes with a thruster fin setup.

We advise combining the Applino V2 with a Pivot style thruster fin. For a bit of extra playfulness, you can choose a smaller middle fin in your thruster.
