HO Syndicate Works 2024 / Stance 130 Atop RTP
The HO Syndicate Works 02 redefines the Syndicate range for a new age of high-end waterskis. The underlying foundation of this ski was to create a more efficient ski that took the strain off the body and allowed you to feel comfortable no matter where you find yourself set up on the ski, meaning no matter where you are, you should have a stable platform to be more productive without sacrificing that traditional high-end Syndicate feel. With an increased concave for a greater volume of flow and a higher tip rocker, the ski generates the suction and downforce required of modern skis to improve efficiency and drive water to the edge bevels, which help the ski lock through the forebody and drive through the downswing of the ski and provide a smoother release in the tail around the buoy, perfectly balancing acceleration and deceleration as you need it. When all of these features come together, the Works 02 gives you levels of balance and comfort that are hard to walk away from while giving you the efficiency of smoother, tighter turns. Internally, the Works skis use a rigid foam core bonded to carbon laminates with a bio-resin that all works in tandem to create a stiffer ski that enhances response more than ever, meaning increased performance with an immediate reaction. Overall, the Syndicate Works 02 is perfect if you want a skier-driven ski, allowing you to handle the ski as you like with control, tight turning arcs, and increased speed through your downswing to the wake.
The HO Stance 130 Atop waterski boot is the new foundation for their ski boot range, taking the comfort of the Freemax and increasing the structural design of the boot to provide an all-new mid-range model. The traditional Stance model winds back the clock to give you your classic 6 holes outer screw pattern, allowing this boot to fit on any ski but don’t stress because everything else you love about a HO boot remains the same. With a stiffer full wrap upper cuff, the Stance now offers considerable support laterally without sacrificing any power and increasing responsiveness. The outer cuff and inner liner are built in a 175mm cuff height allowing the boot to sit perfectly around the ankle and not hinder leg movement. All this finally comes together with comfort, a contoured footbed, and updated lining to allow for maximum feel.
Waterski Features
Rocker
- Pre-Flexed Continuous Rockerline – A pre-flexed rockerline gives a naturally aggressive shaped continuous rockerline, meaning no matter how you ski or where you stand on the ski, you will always get tight turns and maximum hold. This allows you to explode out of turns and across the wash with ease on both the onside and offside.
- High Rocker Tip – The increased rocker angle in the tip means earlier and more aggressive turn initiation, getting you around the bouy in less time.
Flex
- Flex Rating(1=Soft, 10=Stiff) – 10/10
Core
- Works Construction
-
- Rigid Foam Core – An updated lightweight core construction that’s a cut above PVC, offering a hyper-reactive feel to energy input, giving you superior responsiveness.
- Bio Resin: 35% Natural Glycerin Resin – This is a simple by-product of biodiesel production that allows the ski to rebound out of turns faster, allowing for a lighter feel underfoot.
- No Plastic Layers – No top and bottom plastic layers, making the works even more environmentally friendly
Laminates
- Carbon Laminates – A traditional carbon laminate layer that is tried and proven adds a snappy element to your ski, driving response through your cut and turns.
Shape
- Wide Forebody – increased width under your foot and through to the nose gives the ski overall increased stability and support without sacrificing speed on the downswing and turn initiation.=
- Updated Bevel Package – Rounder, larger bevel allows the ski to roll into an edge easier and with greater stability.
Concave
- High Volume Concave – Increased depth in the front section of the ski creates more lift and support while also adding greater volume. This translates to greater push on the outer bevels of the ski and an easier ability to pivot into your edges and keep speed.
