Tabou Rocket Plus 2026 – The Ultimate Freerace

The Tabou Rocket Plus 2026 is the benchmark in the freerace category, combining pure speed, refined control, and versatility for every windsurfer who wants to push themselves further. Crafted down to the smallest detail by the Tabou team, this board delivers a feeling of safety and adrenaline in all conditions, from strong chop to fast flatwater cruising. Thanks to its low entry rocker, the Rocket Plus offers early planing and exceptional grip even with powerful sails and strong winds. The accentuated front V ensures smooth handling and comfort in chop, while the slight V in the tail provides stability and safety when riding at full speed. The wide, rounded tail increases volume and facilitates fast riding, while the cut-outs reduce the surface area in contact with the water and increase the board's hydrodynamic efficiency. Multiple footstrap positions, foil compatibility on all sizes from 113 liters and up, and a high-performance fin box make the Rocket Plus the perfect choice for both enthusiasts and experts looking for a fast and easy freerace.
