Phase 5 Model X LTD Wakesurf Board

Phase 5 Model X LTD Wakesurf Board - 2027

The 2027 Phase 5 Model X LTD combines the Model X's versatile skim-style shape with Copperhead Zylon Carbon construction and a distinctive gold-weave deck. Its full outline, gradual entry rocker, and single-wing swallow tail balance stability, speed, and maneuverability. Three 2-inch skim fins provide dependable hold and control, making the Model X LTD suitable for relaxed cruising and more active riding above the wave's lip.

Best For

• Cruising and progression: Riders seeking a stable platform with maneuverability for developing new skills.
• Shared crew riding: Versatile handling for different riders whose weight and height suit the selected size.
• Control-focused riding: Three 2-inch fins provide hold and predictable tracking along the wave.
• LTD styling: Riders who want the Model X shape with a gold Zylon/Carbon weave and coordinated limited-edition finish.

Shape & Riding Performance

The Model X LTD's full outline and gradual entry rocker flow into a single-wing swallow tail, producing a stable, fast, and maneuverable ride. This balance suits riders who want to cruise comfortably in the pocket—the wave's usable riding area—while retaining room to develop turns and more advanced maneuvers.

Both sizes use 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. For shoppers, that makes flotation a useful consideration when comparing the Model X LTD with thinner technical skim-style boards.

The tri-fin setup reinforces the board's emphasis on control. Phase 5 describes its tri-fin configuration as its most stable setup, helping the board hold a consistent line. On the Model X LTD, three 2-inch skim fins provide dependable hold for cruising and more active riding.

Copperhead Zylon Carbon Construction

The Model X LTD uses Copperhead Zylon Carbon construction, featuring an oversized gold Zylon/Carbon weave on the deck. It pairs the Model X's established shape with a responsive build and a coordinated LTD appearance.

V.R.T. technology uses a vacuum-assisted hand lamination process with built-in glass/bar stringers along the bottom edge for extra strength and pop. Polyester resin provides strength and durability, while a gloss finish and PROPEL bottom graphics complete the board.
