2023 Hyperlite 4.8 Buzz

The Buzz was created to bridge the gap between skim and surf style boards, giving you the best of both worlds. The shape was crafted by Butch to be the fastest and most maneuverable board in the Hyperlite wakesurf line-up.

+ Hybrid Style
Toss some buckets with some smooth, linked turns inspired by your favorite saltwater surfer. Traditional surf shapes have a thicker profile and a mellower rail/bevel allowing a rider to pivot a turn more from their back foot and are best ridden with either a deeper fin or multiple fins. Riders usually apply more pressure on the back half of the board and generate more force through a turn. Still very capable of doing tricks on and off the water just with a fluid like feel.

+ DuraShell Construction
Combines the buoyancy and feel of a high-end EPS board and the durability of a compression molded shape.

+ Scott Butch Bouchard Technology
Scott Bouchard entered the shaping scene as an innovator with a background rooted in surf. His unique take on the three-stage rocker helped riders like Byerly and JD get more pop off the wake when wakes were small. His passion for sourcing new materials and creating new construction methods has produced some of Hyperlites best-selling models.

+ Layered Glass
Hyperlite's fiberglass is available in three weights depending on the board. Over time, traditional woven glass fibers will separate. With layered glass every Hyperlite deck will have the same pop off the double up year after year.
