Name: 2025 Connelly Steel w/ Draft Boots
SKU: 153416

The Steel wakeboard, otherwise known as Steel Lafferty's board, blurs the lines between what should be possible for a wakeboard, seamlessly toeing the line between explosive power and soft smooth feel and flex. This tailors directly to Steel's desires, making it something to behold behind boat, the perfect blend of performance and free-style design. A subtle 3-stage rocker gives you all the pop you can desire, but working with the centre spine also provides you with buttery soft landings that will save your knees for long days in the boat. Getting you to the wake is just as important, so Connelly provides a full-length centre channel to sit you deeper in the water, giving you maximum control from the start to the end of your cut. So it might be built with Steel in mind, but deep down, it is still one of the Connelly favourites and should also be one of yours.

The Draft is the perfect wakeboard boot if you're chasing pro model capabilities, but you need to cover various foot sizes. Taking the pro model designs and pretty much chopping the end off allows for greater sizing range, but that doesn't hold it back. The Draft boot takes support and response and dials it to 11 with an impact strap and shaped heel pocket to help draw your heel right into the boot and lock it down, creating a crazy response for an open-toe boot. Dual EVA foam soles make sure that the Draft isn't all performance. With plenty of comfort underfoot and support around the ankle with inbuilt j-bars, it provides you with a perfectly rounded performance open-toe wakeboard boot.

Wakeboard Features

Rocker Line

Subtle 3-Stage Rocker - Connelly's subtle 3-stage rocker is the step in the direction of a full-blown 3-stage. A smaller flat spot between your feet before the kick gives you just enough pop to get that 3-stage feeling.

Board Flex

Energy Rating(1=Delayed/Stored Energy, 10=Instant Explosiveness) – 6/10

Core Construction

Flex Core – A blend of foam and ABS fused together in perfect harmony to create a core balanced enough to give you both plenty of energy and soft landings.

Rails/Edges

Elliptical Beveled Edge - Allows you to set a deeper cut and give more power through your edging.

Laminates

Monocoque Construction - An outer glass wrap from the bottom to the top, so the flash line is switched out as the weakest point for the board to the strongest. It is also renowned as the most durable construction in wakeboarding.
Bi-Axial Layered Glass – Ensure your board doesn’t soften over the years; layered fibreglass will help keep you poppin’.

Base

Subtle Centre Landing Spine - a minimal ridge down the board helps pivot the board through edges, as well as softening your landings and saving your knees.
Deep Centre Channel - directs water and drives it towards the fins, providing plenty of control from the start to the end of your cut.
