Phase 5 Hammerhead V3 Wakesurf Board

Phase 5 Hammerhead V3 Wakesurf Board - 2027

Drew Danielo's 2027 Phase 5 Hammerhead V3 combines skim-style speed with balanced revert riding. Its squared ends support riding with either end forward, while peanut-shaped rails create two contact points for tracking along the wave. A 3/4-inch continuous core provides more float than Phase 5's thinner 5/8-inch profile, and full-deck traction supports grip as riders change foot placement during technical maneuvers.

Best For

• Advanced skim-style riders: Riders developing technical tricks who want speed, agility, and quick release.
• Revert progression: Squared ends and a balanced shape support riding with the board reversed after a rotation.
• Riders seeking more float: A 3/4-inch core offers more flotation than Phase 5's 5/8-inch profile.
• Changing foot placement: Full-deck traction provides grip across the board for technical maneuvers.

Shape & Riding Performance

The Hammerhead V3's squared ends are a defining feature for revert riding—riding with the board reversed after a rotation. Its balanced shape supports traveling with either end forward, making it relevant to riders working on control before and after rotational tricks.

The peanut-shaped outline creates two rail contact points for tracking along the wave. This gives the Hammerhead a distinct shape for riders seeking directional tracking alongside its technical skim-style capabilities.

All sizes feature a 3/4-inch continuous core, maintaining the same thickness from nose to tail. Phase 5 describes this profile as offering more float and less responsiveness than its thinner 5/8-inch core. That tradeoff is useful when choosing a board: the Hammerhead emphasizes additional flotation while retaining a performance-focused shape for advanced riding.

A single 1-inch tail fin complements the design with a low-drag setup. Phase 5's single-fin configuration emphasizes speed and agility, supporting the Hammerhead's focus on technical tricks and quick release.

Hybrid Carbon Innegra Construction

Hybrid Carbon Innegra uses a lightweight glass weave incorporating carbon and Innegra fibers. Phase 5 designs this construction to produce a fast, stiff board for demanding performance riding. It complements the Hammerhead V3's technical skim-style shape and balanced revert capabilities.

V.R.T. technology uses a vacuum-assisted hand lamination process with built-in glass/bar stringers along the board's bottom edge for extra strength and pop. Polyester resin provides strength and durability, completing the construction with a gloss finish and PROPEL bottom graphics.

Specifications & Size Guide

Compare rider weight and height with the suggested ranges below when selecting a Hammerhead V3. Length, width, and volume increase across the lineup, while every size retains the same 3/4-inch thickness, single 1-inch tail fin, and full-deck traction.

Sizing assumes average fitness and ability. Experienced riders may size down; beginners may need larger boards.
