2007 CWB Transcend 142 Platinum
A complete overhaul for '07. The Transcend has always been a finicky shape reserved for those who are comfortable with their edge and enjoy the hardest wake-to-wake buck out there. The first deck to go beyond 3 of rocker, it has a strong following from those who love a smooth, consistent, hard pop. With that tremendous rocker comes a sacrifice of speed. For '07, Andrew determined we should scale back the rocker to approximately 3.02. We also added twin tunnels off the tip and tail, beefed up the center spine and created a fin system that can add a bit of traction, but not totally change the ride. This new industry-first fin system allows the rider a choice. Choose the 5 molded fins for a loose ride, or bolt on a 2.5 fin extension for 7.5 of fin. This shape gives you the ability to only put the extension on your switch toe edge adding a small amount more bite or ad bite to your heel edge for hard edging. It also adopted the CWB-innovated center spine to break up landings as well as extensive smooth top shaping for a tip and tail diet program to trim off some weight. Andrew has spent even more time on the podium this year with this new board. He loves it. We love it. He loves Taco Bell. Good times.
One of the most innovative shapes just got better. Slide a PT78 core in the already rockn Transcend and it becomes one whole pound lighter! A revised flex pattern makes the Plat Trans stiffer and snappier off the wake Plats also come with two sets of fin extensions so you can add 1.5 or 2.5 of length to the 5 molded fin system. You thought a 3 rocker board popped hard beforewait till you try it with the snap, snap snappiest core in the industry. It will rule the day. |

Coming from a 05 transcend i tried a 07 abs plat an broke it on the first sesh right in half. i went to the plat trans an its blows the abs away in every category this board is the best feeling best popping board. rediculously stable on the water. Stay away from the absolute plat go with the trans its way better.

Extremely stable, amazing pop, soft landings. This board just plain does everything right. Riding with the shorter fin extensions on and it’s just really easy to make it do whatever you want.
