Airush One V2
This is the 2nd generation of the One from Airush, just released in September 2021. Our South African based test team were lucky to get their hands on it so early, being a hop, skip, and a jump away from Airush headquarters, located in the surfside town of Muizenberg. The One V2 has been designed with simplicity, usability, and durability…

Airush Switch
The 2022 Airush Switch is an absolute stunner with its Palownia exposed wood core and simple, modern graphics. We know graphics have no impact on the performance of a board, but when a board looks this good, we're pretty sure we look better riding it! To be fair, there aren't too many hideous boards on the market, but we are…
Airush Switch Team
The 2022 Airush Switch and Switch Team arrived at our doorstep on the same day, which was an exciting delivery as we love a good back-to-back test! If you haven't read our review of the Switch, that's a great place to start. The Switch is a phenomenal freeride board, but the Switch Team, even though it's the same shape, is…
Airush Apex V5
Airush have pumped out some lookers for the 2019 season, and the Apex V5 was the first we had the privilege of trying. A board designed for those of us who have a passion for both freestyle and big air freeride, and the experience to get the most out of it. The Apex V5 has the classic Airush outline, with…
Airush Freeride Foil

This issue we are taking a look at the Livewire V6. This is…
Airush Mini Monster Convert
The Mini Monster Convert from Airush sets out to bridge the gap between a light wind freeride wave weapon and a capable foil board. Its got some very fish looking aspects, such as the full nose and the winged tail, and the volume is high and distributed in the centre of the board with a full nose too. The rocker…
Airush Union V4
The Union from Airush made a huge impression when it first appeared a few years ago, and the 4th version of the popular kite is no less impressive, and we predict will be no less popular. A 3 strut all-round kite, it has been designed as the first and last kite you should ever need for the weekend warrior and…
Airush Wave V8
The Wave V8 is back for 2019 as part of Airush’s extensive kite line up.

The Wave houses 3 struts, is of moderate aspect ratio, and uses the Airush Load Frame V4 for…

This issue we are going to be taking a look at the new Ultra V2. The 2019 Airush Ultra V2 is a single strut, lightweight SLE that is targeting not only the light wind foiling market, but has…
Airush Union
The Union is a new addition to the Airush lineup for 2016 and is billed as an all-round machine for the intermediate to advanced rider. As the name suggests the kite is something of an amalgamation with elements from the Lithium, Wave and Razor models being brought to the drawing board, and the Union bringing them all together with a…
