HO Hovercraft w Stance + ARTP 2027

The HO Hovercraft is the waterski that everyone should have in their quiver. If you've ever wondered how a surfboard would handle to ski on (which you probably haven't), you now have the answer with this free-ski weapon. Shaped with the ultimate width profile, trouble on deep water starts is a thing of the past, reducing the amount of wobble and spray to your face. With a surfboard-inspired thruster design, the Hovercraft creates edge hold while the fin setup provides pivot in turns at slower speeds. Finished in a flex body construction, the Hovercraft flexes underfoot to put less strain on your body. It's tough to find a kinder ski.

The HO Stance boot is designed for skiers chasing comfort, flexibility, and a bit more forgiveness. It features lateral flex zones for smooth side to side movement and easier entry, making it a great option for relaxed, responsive riding. The GAIA PVC-free foam liner gives you a snug yet comfy fit, while the Ultralite Base keeps the weight down without sacrificing strength. Dual lace zones let you tighten the upper and lower sections independently, so you can dial in the fit just how you like it. Finished with a universal hole pattern to suit most ski brand inserts, the Stance Boot is all about easy performance and dependable comfort.

HO Hovercraft features:

• Rocker- Continuous Rockerline -  A singular long continuous rockerline provides a considerably more stable and forgiving feel in transitions from edge to edge and, in the build-up to the apex of your cut, while also removing any stall spots at the top of your cut.
• Flex- Flex Rating(1=Soft, 10=Stiff) – 5/10
• Core- PU Core – The most well-known core in waterskiing. A durable, slightly softer material, meaning you can ski for longer and not feel as tired while getting more flex into turns and less rebound crossing the wash.  
• Laminates- Fibreglass Laminates – The most forgiving top layer you can get is a simple fibreglass laminate that allows the ski to provide a comfortable flex and smooth arcing turn.
• Shape- Swallow Tail Tri-Fin for Surf Style Control - A Swallow style tail means you can turn with absolute ease, while the thruster style provides the ultimate edge hold and traction fins that give stable turns.
• Extra Stable Platform - Making deep water starts as easy as getting up on a wakesurfer. The wider profile means less wobble and spray, so you can get up smoother and at slower speeds.
• Clean Edge 3.0 Tail - A tapered edge from the base of the back foot to the tail reduces the ski's drag by around 50%
• Flex body Construction - A reduced profile ski body combined with the overall construction gives greater torsional stability and response comparative to load when under stress.
• Concave- Deep Concave - Creates stability while on edge and through turns, balancing out the speed.
• Hex Fin - An Airfoil inspired 3D fin allows the ski to have greater handling at slower speeds and help get the ski into the edge
