Taking the Escape to the next level, the Escape + is versatile in shape and premium in performance.

- Low Rocker
- Provides early planing and speed in fast sections and flats
- Perfect for small waves of all types and strapless freestyle
The low rocker line of the Escape guarantees early planing in all sections even in small surf and light wind.
- Wide Squash Tail with Small Wingers
- Responsive feel for sharp and tight turns
- Easy to pop and airborne characteristics
The wide squash tail provides a skatie feel with easy release for popping airs and sharp turns.
- Thin Rail Profile
- Great rail control in bottom and top turns
- Perfect grip even at take offs and landings in chopy water
The low buoyancy of the thin rails enhances the control in turns and when getting airborne. The rails cut through choppy water and help with sketchy landings
- Single Concave with Channels
- Channels on nose and tail provide more waterflow to generate drive and speed
- The shape enhances the responsiveness and adds grip for technical tricks
The innovative channel design balances grip and speed, making the board perfect for the most technical freestyle manouvers.
Eleveight boards are build with dedication, experience and highest quality materials. Each board is shaped to perfection for highest performance and lasting durability. All boards are made in Europe.
1. MEDIUM DENSITY PU FOAM
Our Polyurethane Blank (PU) foam is not only strong but also super light – it ensures optimal board feel and creates the perfect buoyancy.
2. INEGRA/CARBON VECTOR GRID FRONT FOOT
Regular surfboards easily dent or snap in hard landings or wipe-outs. Our strong Inegra/ Carbon Vector Grid tremendously enhances the board’s durability at points of high stress.
3. HANDSHAPED
After the CNC machine provides the perfect blank, Portugal’s most experienced shapers take over. With an eye for detail they shape and glass each board to perfection.
4. CARBON FLEX TECHNOLOGY (CFT)
The CFT construction combines the highest quality materials for the perfect mix of control, comfort and board feedback. The integrated carbon stringer enhances the board’s flex even further.
5. INEGRA/CARBON VECTOR GRID TAIL
The boards tail is often victim to abuse or even unwanted contact with beaches or rock. To increasae its durability we strengthened it with our Inegra/Carbon Vector Grid.
6. EXTRA REINFORCEMENTS
Full layer of 160g Biaxal fiberglass to reinforce the top deck + 4oz front foot patch
7. Reinforced Futures fin box
The board comes with proven Futures fin boxes that are integrated using extra-strong PVC foam for longevity.
