Haukka "Birch"
Haukka "Birch"
HAUKKA - THE FALCON
is known for its speed and grace. Showing its true colours when diving like an arrow.
This one has the need for speed. The slim profile and make this one ideal for stability on steep fast lines, where it will come to life.
This pintail has a moderately rounded tail to improve tail lift, making it workable even in deeper sections. Its smaller surface area help to make it more manoeuvrable.
We recommend this model especially for riding bigger and steeper slopes. It turns best at speed with a full-body carving style of riding.
