EXO - The Evolution of a Proven Design

The Jacobsen EXO is the modern evolution of a proven wave and freestyle shape, refined over nearly a decade. Its compact no-nose outline combines speed, control, and versatility in a fast, surf-inspired package built for real-world conditions.

Designed for flat water, chop, and small to medium waves, the EXO planes early, drives upwind, and carries impressive speed through turns. It feels stable and predictable when needed, yet loose and responsive off the top. The compact outline also makes it a natural choice for modern strapless freestyle.

Ride it strapped or strapless. Strap inserts add another dimension for powered riding and bigger wave conditions.

Fast, lively, versatile — the EXO is made to be pushed.
