RONIX Osmo Skimmer - Dark Matter (Digital Frequency)
A NEW RESPONSIVE, MASTERPIECE MADE IN THE USA.
This aquatic marvel received some incredible new features and additional sizes. We’ve added Urethane sidewalls around the profile of the board appropriately called Speedwalls – making the board faster, stronger and riding higher on the water. Space age materials outputting that perfect blend of reactivity and control. This low rocker, wide profile Dylan Matthews signature eco-friendly board featuring our intuitive button fin system and floating fins is a perfect series for the elite waterman but still works well for those new to the sport. A new construction reducing drag by up to 50% of a traditional construction - designed for riders that want to ride deeper in the pocket with less effort.
A new skimmer that is fast in either direction and carries more speed for technical skim style tricks. With input from rider Dylan we began shaping performance driven skimmers with a true twin-tip design. The result was a board that is fast but stable, and reactive but composed. Spin easier, air-out smoother, and land shuvs with more speed. For the rider wanting a board that complements their meticulous inputs and weight transfers when riding. The twin-tip inspired shape features a wider profile than a typical competition-style skimmer. This increases rotation speed and allows for shorter board sizes. The added width also increases pocket speed making the experience of building speed from the back of the wave easier. Minimal rocker in the tip and tail and a domed deck complement the board’s connective feel. Short for Osmosis, meaning the transfer from a more concentrated liquid to less, the nature of transferring energy into the OSMO is unique. It accommodates the revolving door of micro-adjustments for a closer connection between the rider, board and wave. Land 720 shuvs or dial in your 360. Made in the Good ol’ U.S. of A. The most advanced constructed skimmer is now available in 3 sizes.

Surf Constructions 101
Why so many surf constructions? All of our surfers can be put into 1 of 4 categories in varying price points. Those that prioritize lightweight, extra energy, extra dampening and of course durability – or those that want a combination of 2 of them.
HIGH ENERGY + DURABILITY
More hole shot response out of a turn with added power off the lip. In surfing we have 3 versions of these laminates that all do the same - but such different variations. Carbon Air Core 4. Made from a spread tow carbon that uses wider, thinner tapes of carbon, resulting in a smoother flatter surface and higher strength to weigh ratio compared to an interlaced woven carbon - the most unique and explosive skimmer in the industry. Dark Matter. In our eyes the holy grail of surf constructions. Made at our H.O.M.E. where Ronix was founded - this board starts off with an eco-friendly bio resin. Then we add this innegra material from France that is a first of its kind in wakesurfing - the pinnacle of reaction and control.
EXTRA DAMPENING + DURABILITY
A term rarely said in surfing is suspension. Choppier water conditions, steeper wakes, foamy lips, or just want a smoother feel. It’s hard to beat the plush ride found in our Koal Classic with wood on the top and bottom. Extra Dampening + Added Durability - Even a softer ride with this added timber construction. The Element Core and Marsh “mellow” also makes for some of the strongest most durable series in our line.
LIGHTWEIGHT
First let’s kick off with the Standard core. This is our baseline of creating a less is more surfer. An affordable value with great feel for the water and turns extra easy because of its low swing weight. Lightweight + Extra Energy - Flyweight and Flyweight Pro is for the rider that wants the best of both worlds being slender on the scale and boastful off the wake with added snap from carbon or S-Glass laminates.
EXTRA DURABILITY
All our boards are built with the first in class materials that won’t break down over time. But three series put even more emphasis on the ooops factor. Tuff Tech. - A durable lightweight and more affordable option with a protective laminate that breaks up the water for less resistance. Packed down to a grom series - with an even lighter version - Sonic Core.
SKIMMER
A fast, responsive style of board where the rider’s position is centered with a more balanced body. These sharp rail, thin profiled boards react quicker for people that don’t have a lot of time to waste. Preferred by surfers that like to have more feel with their board itself – and not just on fins. They can break free easier for 360’s on the water or shuvits off it. A more forgiving style of board when riding behind a steep wake because you typically ride this style of board at a shorter length (making it less likely to dunk the nose). Because of how speedy these models are – you can get away with a shorter, lightweight length.
Alright, so we created the first wakeboard in 1990 , are independently run, and a couple of our owners can do 1080’s - 1 of them can even do a 1260. Doesn’t matter to you? Only 1 factor matters to us – the quality of our product . Sourcing new memory foam in footwear, or a weave of glass bett...
