Challenging Graeme and Aaron to enhance the ever popular Wishbone shape is no easy task. Nonetheless, they did just that with the new Blacklist shape. Starting with a narrower profile for quicker edge to edge response and a Continuous Rocker for a faster feel. With a clean base design and tip / tail pipe tunnel the Blacklist locks on to all features with ease. Low swing weight thanks to minimal tip / tail volume is complimented by the Platform Grab Rail for added strength within the stance area. The Blacklist touches down with a 4 on Hyperlite’s Flex Factor.
