O'Brien Valhalla Wakeboard with Access Bindings

For 2017 O'Brien tweaked the Valhalla to make it better than ever. Its new contouring and balanced thickness profile have taken an easy to ride board and made it even more forgiving to benefit beginner and intermediate riders. Its feather core, new thickness profile, and molded fins give the Valhalla tons of control from edge to edge making it an ultra-reliable shape. The new contouring, along with its progressive rocker and delta base, generates a smooth, controlled pop off the wake; allowing the rider to maintain control in the air and build confidence in their riding.

Similar to O'Brien's continuous rocker but with a more kicked up tip and tail, resulting in more vertical pop than a continuous rocker and more predictability than a 3-Stage. Built for pure boat performance! Feather core reduces the board's swing weight for more midair control, while simultaneously maintaining its profile up the face of the wake for maximum pop. Chevron" shaped channels molded into the tip and tail of the board reduce drag for faster edging and a cleaner release off the wake. All O'Brien wakeboards are equipped with industry standard 6 millimeter inserts so if TSA loses your hardware or it falls off the dock Borrow some from your buddy and keep shredding.

With an extra buoyant feather core the O'Brien Valhalla is perfect wakeboard for the beginner or intermediate rider looking to take their skills to the next level. O'Brien's new feather core is developed to reduce weight for more control in the air and to maintain its profile up the transition of the wake for maximum boost. Built for pure boat performance. The delta base providing the same advantages as dimples on a golf ball delta base technology is evidenced by the unique tip and tail features on the base of the board. These features cause the water's surface to break much like a stone skipping across the water's surface resulting in a fast effortless approach into the wake.

Fully Sintered Polyurethane Impact Base: O'Brien once again pulled some inspiration from their snowboard brethren and their Impact Base is the same material you'll find on the slopes of your local mountain. Built to withstand multiple seasons of shredding. Progressive Rocker: Is the result of combining lightweight foam and two balsa wood stringers that run from the tip and tail of the board that creates a durable, strong, snappy deck, allowing the board to flex yet always return to its natural rocker line.
