TheHOElement remains unchanged, with its simple rocker design for a subtle and forgiving pop, so you get smooth transitions from wake to wake. HO also gives the Element a thinner profile, so you get easy transitions from edge to edge with edge rails for plenty of edge hold through to the wake. Combine this with a mellow concave, so you get a soft landing, tri-density pads for plenty of comfort under your knees, and a single power lock strap for support while keeping things simple. The HO Element is the board you're looking for to get you off your old plastic kneeboard and into the element.
