Mistral Prodigy 2009
The Mistral Prodigy has been around for some while now and it has proved itself as one of the best recreational racing boards ever. That is because Mistral has discovered the secret to blend speed and maneuverability in a very easy to use board. Since the previous versions of the Prodigy were so successful, Mistral continues the legacy with the 2009 model. It is built on a similar pattern with the previous models, but it is enhanced to deliver even more fun and efficiency.
The board features a wider profile and quite a long outline. This shape increases longitudinal stability and offers the rider a larger planning surface. The board packs a good amount of volume so it has a nice grip, plenty of stability and can be used without problems by a heavier rider. The new rocker and rail lines are smooth and fast so the board can reach an intense top speed when it is fully powered up. The Mistral Prodigy is engineered to offer a quick acceleration and to take maximum advantage of the water flow and wind to maintain a constant top speed for a long time. A board which is intended to offer a high speed race and a recreational cruise at the same time must be highly maneuverable and forgiving. And the Mistral Prodigy is a very user friendly board. When it is used by an advanced rider it can offer an unmatched speed, and when a casual rider sets foot on it, becomes stable and easy to use. The rider can experience a fast and responsive control, and no matter how tight the turns and rotations are, the boars does not lose grip or stability. Fast and stable, powerful and easy to maneuver, the Prodigy delivers maximum performance for a racing competition or maximum fun for a relaxing ride.
Mistral has constructed the Prodigy on an EVA High Resistant Skin technology to make sure that the board is highly durable but also very light. The board is available in 255 liters volume and an 87x298 centimeters size and performs outstanding when it is used with a sail up to 12.5 square meters.
