OBrien Forum Wakeboard 2026

The O’Brien Forum brings a traditional 3-stage feel to the O’Brien range with a host of features that make it one punchy ride. This shred stick is built around providing maximum line tension throughout the entire process, which is benefited by its design to ride lower in the water. This is thanks to its 3-stage rocker, which helps the centre of the board bury into the water but works twofold in allowing tension to build up and, with the combination of the centre concaves and channels, build pressure right to the top of the wake for maximum lift. It isn’t all just about pressure, though, as the Forum also helps to make smooth transitions edge to edge with its variable rail design, giving a rounder centre bevel to roll and a sharper tip and tail for your cuts into the wake, as well as softer landings thanks to its triple concave hull molding, because what the point in going big if the landings are going to be rough.

Rocker Line

• 3-Stage Rocker – A late Aggressive 3-stage rocker with a maximised flat spot in the centre keeps the board fast while giving an early explosive kick off the wake.

Board Flex

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

Core Construction

• Feather Core – O’Brien’s performance boat core construction reducing swing weight for more midair control and lighter transitions.

Rails/Edges

• Variable Edge Design – Thicker and rounder between the bindings, thinner and sharper in the tip/tail, gives a ‘catch-free’ surfy feel through transitions and sharp, precise hold through to the wake.
• Grab Rail – Adds a section to hold the flow of water and retain an effortless edge hold.

Laminates

• Bi-Axial Fibreglass – A 2 part fibreglass weave that provides strength to the board but also allows for forgiveness and flexes on landings

Base

• Delta Base – v-shaped “Chevron” channels in the tip and tail of the board help to disrupt water and allow for a smoother edge while providing hold through and up the wake.
• Triple Concave Hull to Cupped Centre Channel – Holding multiple benefits to help lock into your cut and hold through to the top of the wake for added propulsion while breaking surface tension on landings.
