ANGULO SUMO 105 - WINDSURF JAN/FEB 2006

Ride and Handling
The character of the board can be altered significantly by utilising them and changing the footstrap configuration and fins accordingly. With outboard straps and a large fin in place, the Sumo releases onto the plane smoothly, the wide deck providing the stability to cater for a 7.5m, whilst the voluminous tail enables the rider to adopt a comfortable stance, loading the fin to cover distance with ease. In more powered conditions the small 24cm fin (that comes with the board) and inboard straps expose a whole new dimension to the 105, introducing a definite buoyant wave board quality to its riding style. Completely controlled irrespective of the conditions, it never seems to buck or play up, but offers a composed responsive ride, making it a lot of fun to use. Still one of the finest examples of a versatile freemove board, the Sumo is an excellent option for coastal sailors with a penchant for wave riding, yet who don’t wish to fully immerse themselves down the freeride path.

Manoeuvres
The Sumo’s supreme versatility extends into the gybe, with an awesome level of aggressive bite captivating the expert rider, yet with enough ease and margin for error to tutor the intermediate. Carving a smooth progressive arc, the width in the tail maintains the speed through the turn, whilst the flat deck provides the stability to allow for clumsy footwork, (also evident in the tack). In fact, the Sumo’s control belies its ability, making it feel almost reserved underfoot, yet as soon as you try something it always delivers. This is particularly apparent in freestyle, where it pops surprisingly well and slides smoothly on its shoulders, the support supplied by the straps and deckpads providing the rider with a real sense of control.

Supreme versatility. Unquestionable wave-board style heritage.

Verdict
A fantastically versatile board, the Sumo has lost none of its potency or charm, making it an excellent all-round option irrespective of rider weight, style or ability. It comes well recommended

The Sumo 125 is the new jewel of the Angulo board line. The big brother to the 105, the Sumo 125 is one of the smoothest boards around. It?s new tri-panel bottom shape allows for feeling of release that is rarely found. It?s early planing center panel is perfectly complimented by it?s two lifted side panels that gives it that "small-board feel" all the while having the stability, volume, and ease of a larger board.
