Supporting aggressive skim style riding, the Phase Five MVP Wakesurfer harnesses unique features not found anywhere else in our lineup. Features a full decked Techno Traction V2 EVA grip setup with nose kick tail support for superior foot control. John’s idea for a kick tail in the nose was to gain more leverage to execute tricks while riding revert. The MVP is the only board with our RidgeGrip™ technology, a unique rail design inspired by his direct feedback. RidgeGrip stiffens the board and offers a pronounced spot to grab when executing tricks above the lip. The moon tail design and V-Spline bottom contours deliver maximum speed and handling. This years LTD features a custom made John Akerman graphic.
