LUXE Wakeboards / DAAP Capstone

Femme Fatale

As a brand, luxe is loosely based around the idea of a femme fatale who is defined as a mysterious, dangerous, seductive woman whose charms entrap her lovers of absolute, irresistible desire. This often leads to dangerous, compromising deadly situations.

​

LUXE Technology

The luxe line is specifically engineer to better equip female riders. The boards have a specific shape that is more friendly to female riders and are overall much thinner and lighter than many boards on the market today. Leveraging key technology for a truly women’s specific board.
