Product Description 2008 Marius 140 Wakeboard Package:
** Upgrade to the Answer wakeboard bindings for a Closed toe hinge.
Just when you thought it couldn't get any better...Trevor Marius Hansen and Doug Cannon again went into the shaping room to create the next design to carry the name Marius. With the huge success of Trevor's last board and a worldwide love for the way it rode, not many modifications were needed.
We all know that stiffness creates snap off the wake, so Trevor and Doug added even more with the new top shape design. Marius co-designer Doug Cannon says, "Our pro level decks for 2007 had X Flex technology, which added stiffness to the tip and tail. The feedback on the new flex patterns was huge, so for 2008 we took that technology and added ridges to the top of Trevor's new shape to make that tip and tail snap even more." We were then able to thin out the tip and tail, trimming weight back even further. The molded fins were sharpened and moved towards the center of the board to get a bit more bite on edge, giving the Marius a buttery ride, but the ability to lock in on a hard edge. Even with these changes, riding the Marius without the center fin is reserved for those who are very comfortable with their edging.
The fin box has also been removed and an additional two channels added to give that extra bite while maintaining speed. For such a huge amount of surface area, the new Marius is the fastest wakeboard in the quiver of CWB shapes. The feedback has been huge. Trevor has a relaxed style of riding and some think he coasts into the wake. When you can coast into the wake, and float a method eight feet high and into the flats, something with your wakeboard is right.

Product Description Faction Wakeboard Bindings:
The change starts now. The new 6 plate trims roughly two pounds per pair of wakeboard bindings. The new Lock Jaw system that is 60% lighter. The new Hinge movement cleans up the wakeboard binding dubbed the Switch Hinge. Houndstooth! Say it isn't so!! The 2008 Faction wakeboard binding is beautiful. Using the new 6 Plate, this boot is light. When partnered with the Faction board, you can't keep your eyes off of it. The Faction is a lower cut boot that has been designed to be a soft upper to give the ability to poke that toe five. We have found a fabric compound that flexes like that of rubber but maintains the fresh look of leather. What does this do for you? It enables you to ride a boot that looks money, but will allow you to release out of your wakeboard binding on a hard fall so your ankles don't scream at you. The Faction wakeboard binding comes packaged with the Faction board and let us tell you. You need to check it. It will be on the who's who list of the red carpet this season.
