How do you improve the winningest shape in wakeskate history? Easy, enlist the help Scott Bouchard. That’s right Butch and Grubb teamed up to shape everything Grubb was looking for. The new and improved Catalyst series starts with a blended 3-stage rocker line to generate more speed into the wake. Butch built a wider overall profile for increased surface area to give Grubby the extra wake-to-wake pop he wanted. To ensure the ride was not too loose, however, the pair designed dual base channels for tighter edge hold into the wake. Finished off with more pronounced concaves and a hybrid EVA / grip tape top, the Catalyst is built to win another generation of titles.

Bio2 Core
Our secret little recipe we have been perfecting since day one. This core material is the gold standard in the industry and used through out our line.

Layered Glass
Non-woven glass available in 4 sizes depending on the board. Over time, traditional woven glass fibers will separate. With layered Glass Every Hyperlite deck will have the same snap on a double after 5 seasons as it will on the first one.

Monocoque Construction
Integrating the top glass and the bottom glass into one. Generating a more durable board on side impacts thus preventing the ol’ side delimitation.

Coming off the best season of his young career, it’s was only fitting that Brandon Thomas have a board to call his own. The 108 Vinyl is just that, everything BT has wanted and then some. Almost two years in the works, the Vinyl takes design elements from all of BT’s favorite skates and combines them into one. Overall, the Vinyl has a wider profile to create pop and accommodate for a bigger foot. A subtle concave and die-cut grip tape top complement the board’s over all shape. Throw in a new blended 3 Stage rocker line and dual tip/tail channels and you have a skate built for performance.

Information:
The Catalyst 2.0 is a more traditional skate style concave kicktail blend. The magic weight of our high-end skates is around 8 lbs, but it’s where the weight is dispersed that makes the big difference. The 2.0 is constructed with steel rods running the length of the board which improve the rotation on flip tricks. A softer radius near the edge prevents the board from getting hung up in the water when a deck is most prone too. . . during shuv-it tricks.

Features:
- Tip/Tail Channels
- Grip Tape Top
- Nylon Base
- Tip to Tail Internal Weighting
- Layered Glass
- Lifetime Warranty
