Simmer Style G7 Omnia

The Simmer Style G7 Omnia is a wave-oriented freewave board, developed from the ground up to combine speed and freeride feel with real wave sailing capabilities. It is a board designed for those who want a unique, fast, controlled, and fun board both for straight-line sailing and more dynamic maneuvers.

Overview

The Omnia stems from the work carried out with the Simmer team to create an extremely fast board that is always stable and controllable, even in radical jumping conditions and challenging chop. The design combines a new rocker with a very fast tail, increased curve in the center section, and a bottom with V and double concave to enhance planing, comfort, and maneuverability.

Main Features

Fast and Versatile Freewave

The G7 Omnia combines early planing, excellent cruising speed, and agile turning behavior. It maintains the classic freewave feel but significantly expands its potential in wave riding.

New Rocker with Fast Tail

The rocker introduces more curve from the front strap area to the section in front of the mast track, while the tail remains very fast. This combination improves acceleration, high-speed control, and the ability to absorb challenging conditions.

Vee and Double Concave

The new bottom is flatter in the central area, with a V that accelerates towards the nose and tail; in the front part, the V is combined with a double concave. The result is a board that is more stable in chop, more comfortable, and smoother in changes of direction.

Modern Shape and Control in All Conditions

The swallow tail, relatively wide and stable nose, and the distribution of the curve along the outline and rails contribute to offering grip, agility, and safety across a very wide range of use. The 75-liter size is the most high-wind oriented and adopts a dedicated 5-slot box configuration.

Technical Details

Optimized Contours for Comfort and Pop

The low center V contributes to pop and agility at all speeds, while the front double concave helps dampen chop. This setup makes the board easier to control when the water surface becomes irregular.

Double Strap Inserts and Freeride Setup

The double screw inserts allow for an adjustable and robust stance, with different settings based on rider preferences. The 75, 86, 96, 106, and 116 models integrate double central inserts and single rear inserts for dedicated freeride configurations.

Dual Density EVA Pad

The dual-density EVA pads feature a 4mm high-density top layer with diamond grip and heat-pressed dots, plus a soft 8mm core in the heel area and a rear tail kick. This solution increases comfort, grip, and control.

Self-Regulating Gore-Tex Valve

The Omnia is equipped with a self-regulating Gore-Tex air vent, designed to allow internal pressure compensation without losing impermeability. This reduces the risk of overpressure and delamination even during travel and transport.

Carbon Airex Fins and Reinforced Boxes

The fins use a carbon/fiberglass construction with an Airex foam core to keep weight down and maintain stiffness and strength. Custom high-density Airex PVC and carbon fin boxes allow for multi-fin configurations without significantly compromising the board's weight.

Pro Edition Footstraps

The new footstraps integrate 7mm neoprene padding and wide velcro adjustment for improved comfort and durability. They are compatible with both single and double inserts.

Fin Configurations

Thruster Setup

In a tri-fin configuration, the Omnia combines a very fast freewave rocker with increased turning ability thanks to the shorter center fin. This solution improves chop control, stability in overpowered conditions, and wave attitude, while maintaining ease and agility in sailing.

Single Fin / Freewave Setup

With a single fin setup, the Omnia expresses its more freeride/freewave side, with early planing, excellent upwind angle, and great straight-line speed. The curved outline and smooth hull still maintain a good attitude in jibes and wave maneuvers.

Technical Specifications

Declared weight tolerance: +/- 5%.

Who is it for?

The G7 Omnia is ideal for riders who want a freewave board capable of covering many conditions, from fast freeride to bump & jump and even wave sessions. It is particularly interesting for those looking for a unique board that is quick to plane, stable in chop, and more performant in wave riding than a traditional freewave board.
