First off, you’re probably wondering what FlightLite V2 means, right? Well, it’s our fancy term for our latest board construction technique. Since every board that Phase 5 produces is made by hand, that means we have the ability to implement these new techniques right on our factory floor so we know exactly how they work. We also get to see each board go from a chunk of rough foam to a finished masterpiece so we’re checking to make sure it lives up to our standards every step of the way. Our FlightLite V2 construction takes advantage of the best materials available so you can rest assured that the board you buy from your local shop is the best of the best! You’ll feel the difference as soon as you take a set on one of these beauties! But before you check out the collection below, have a look behind the scenes of a board being handmade in our factory in Venice, FL USA!

CHECK OUT THE FULL COLLECTION BELOW!

AHI

John Akerman’s pro model surf style board, the Ahi has a true ocean feel behind the boat.The idea was to bring the aggressiveness and fun of surfing in the ocean to behind the boat and the Ahi delivers just that. This board is fast, poppy, and most importantly, fun! It has tons of new features for 2024, most notably is the moon tail shape. This awesome tail adds speed so you can really attack the lip of the wave. Not only that, it looks sick too! It's built with our Flightlite V2 Pro Select layup so you know it’s not only going to be durable but light as well. Grab yours HERE!

Features:  FlightLite™V2 Pro Select Lamination, V.R.T.™ Technology, Reflex Speedrail, Epoxy Resin, FCS Fin Boxes, Texture Finish, EPS Core, Flexspine™ Carbon Stringer, & Quad Fin Surf Set

PHANTOM

The Phantom by Parker Payne has been landing NBD’s for Parker for a while now with the latest being his infamous kickflip! If you haven’t seen that yet, stop what you’re doing and go watch the clip on our Instagram, we’ll wait….ok, you’re back? Pretty crazy, right? Anyway, the Phantomwent through a fresh re-design for the 2024 model to dial it into Parker’s exact specifications. The first change was an updated nose that carries more speed and momentum throughout your tricks while riding in revert. The updated shape still has the same characteristics of the original design but turned up a notch. If you’ve been watching Parker’s riding lately, you know exactly what we’re talking about. This board still generates more pop than you’ll know that to do with and the rocker line gives you tons of speed to stay in the sweet spot of the wave. There’s a reason Parker loves this shape so much! Grab yours HERE!

VENOM

The Venom is a relatively new shape and a unique board that gives you the feeling of ocean surfing, just like John’s Ahi.Designed for aggressive pumping, hard carves, and big pop, the Venom looks as good as it rides. Its tapered blunt nose handles the steepest of waves with ease and gives you ample stability when landing in revert. Its bat tail design gives the rider plenty of pop and carving control while also having tons of surface area to recover from tricks and stay in the wave.
