2008 Gator Boards Caddy 142
The Caddy has been the staple of the Gator boards line for years and it's back again, redesigned and greater than ever. With two sizes and impressive graphics, our Caddy is still turning heads. For 2008 we used an all-new synthetic suede material and an authentic Caddy-inspired Gator badge giving it that old school feel. For this new shape, we re-engineered the construction by maximizing the fiberglass for an optimal strength-to-weight ratio that does not sacrifice durability, stiffness or response. The thin, but ribbed, tip and tail have a longitudinal snap for a livening pop off the wake. Cupped, full-length center channels give this board more control, softer landings and make it more forgiving in rough water. Much like a surfboard, the True Angle molded fins angle towards the center of the board giving it much more wake entrance control. So if you want a board with all-around versatility and an aggressive shape to make any pro happy, then this is the board for you.
RIDER QUOTE: Mark Weikel says The best feature about the Caddy is that it is a free-roaming board that handles nice and loose, but edges perfectly when you need it to, having a solid tracking fin system. The thin tip and tail make it perfect to press on rails and really snappy off the wake! The Caddy has a great wide shape to it and allows for easy and soft landings. Yeah. If you dont know, now you know! |

The perfect all purpose board! I am sold on Gator gear and have been on most of thier boards(all good). Tried the LF watson,ps3 and Ronix one...good boards,but Gator does it for me. This one is as just Mark Weikel describes it...Great free roaming,big pop,tracks well and soft landings.I ride this one and a Gonzalez board with Gator Bindings...both kick major behind!
The Caddy is great for any level and is a smooth riding, versitle do it all board. Landings are butter soft.
