Phase Five HAMMERHEAD V3 Wakesurf Board
The 2026 Phase Five Hammerhead V3 is a premium skim style wakesurf board built for riders who want to dominate revert riding, maintain speed, and stay locked in down the line. Phase Five calls the Hammerhead the “king of revert”, thanks to its square nose and tail design, which help the board ride with speed and stability in both directions. The board also features a distinctive peanut side rail design, creating two contact points on the wave instead of one to help keep it locked in and driving forward. (phase5boards.com)
