liten rättelse: De heter Techo 273 och 283 i Bic skapelse. Tiga och Bic hade samma bräder, fast med lite med olika namn under några år.
tror att Bic fortfarande säljer sina Techo’s i år också, fast de har sänkt priset i år..

NOVICE SAILOR
STABILITY: Width and waterline aid when sub-planing. Volume flow is balanced end to end for easy tacking, jibing or foot-strapping.
EARLY PLANING: We expected quicker planning from the. S.A.T. construction, which combines sandwich technology with an ASA skin. The wide outline and 45-cm fin, however, will push it on plane predictably for novices.
COMFORT AND Contro:l Double-concave bottom, tucked and parallel rails and plenty of nose scoop keep you in the driver’s seat.
DURABILITY: Built to last, this is a sandwich board with an ASA skin for great scratch and impact resistance. The ASA skin dampens impact and helps prevent cracks on the surface.
ADVANCED SAILOR The Seamless ASA Technology is sharp and makes the 281 took like a lightweight performance machine, but advanced sailors may find it slightly heavy for bump conditions and ocean cruising. It does, however, have tremendous range and control when fully powered.
FREE-RIDE SAILOR: It’s not the earliest planer, but t excels comfort and control The double-concave vee bottom and tucked rails keep it smooth through chop. The stock 48- cm fin supplies ample power and lift.
COMMENTS: This board s basically a slightly suped-up version of Bic’s Techno – same hull Shape with 1.5 pounds shaved off for increased performance. Although the Tiga Free 281 is a bit racier than its Bic brother sailors with aspirations of racing should opt for the Techno, as the S.A.T. construction of the Tiga ban it from the Techno racing class.

FREE RIDE SAILOR
EARLY PLANING Minimal rise at 48 inches, 63.5 centimeters wide, full rails and lots of volume in the tail put you on a plane quickly.
COMFORT AND CONTROL The rails are comfortable underfoot, the deck pads have plenty of cushion and the bottom shape favors a forgiving ride.
STABILITY: Well-balanced end to end with a wide deck and full rails -very forgiving. Great for concentrating on sail handling without worrying about your feet.
UPWIND ABILITY: Just point and go, the Free X will take care of the rest. Outline is relatively parallel, making race-like in design. The tail has ample width and volume.
EXPERT SAILOR., The 271 is an easy cruising machine, designed for higher winds. Experts looking to learn tricks and transitions in light winds with big sails will enjoy its wide, stable platform and forgiving ride.
ADVANCED SAILOR Planes up fast, despite a heavier construction. It feels light and lively on a reach and ideal in 6.5 to 7.5 conditions. Panel vee bottom and clean rail release allow it to track in chop and swells without hindering its flat water speed and windward abilities.
COMMENTS: The Free Carve 271 introduces Tiga’s new S.A.T. construction: Seamless ASA Technology. It has the look of a full sandwich board, but is actually built with a plastic protective skin. It’s basically a scaled-down version of the Tiga 281 S.A.T., exhibiting nearly all of the same smooth, user-friendly characteristics but designed for higher wind, choppier conditions or lighter riders.
