Heca wakeskates are suitable for a range of skill levels, designed and tested to be a comfortable ride in all conditions. Scientifically examined for better performance and more skateboard feel. Distinct for its quality, smooth and consistent riding experience, relaxed tricks and just the right pop you need. Crafted with Care and Precision, blending human expertise with innovative technology.
CONSTRUCTION DETAILS
- Composed of high quality wood, including plywood and paulownia, strenghtened with fiberglass, for lightweight construction and optimized flex.
-
Fully laminated for enhanced durability and a sleek finish.
-
3-Stage Progressive Rocker for consistent pop and responsiveness.
-
Thick Polyurethane Sidewalls for impact protection.
-
Polypropylene Grindbase for smooth slides on obstacles
CORE FEATURES
Skateboard Flex & Pop
Optimized flexibility for bigger pop, paired with a convex bottom that enhances skateboard-like feel, speed, and controlled maneuverability on water and obstacles.
Nose & Tail Comfort Angle
A unique design feature that reduces the angle of the sidewall edges at the nose and tail, widening the top surface. This tweak ensures greater rider comfort, smoother slides, and improved maneuverability across all skill levels.
Custom Performance
Equipped with 4 inserts for lock-in fins, offering possibility to tailor your riding style and balance board weight for ultimate control.
Innovative Technology
Developed through collaboration with riders, engineers, and the Heca team, combining advanced design with real-world feedback to refine proven features for exceptional performance and durability
Scientifically examined for great performance and more skateboard feel
NEW TECHNOLOGY AND INNOVATION
In partnership with the scientists from two Technical Universities from Poland, as well as with a group of professional wakeskate riders, we first scientifically examined all existing wakeskate brands available on the market.
We tested and classified their parameters (including rocker height, weight, buoyancy, flexibility) and eventually created a technologically improved wakeskate board, that ensures improved ergonomics, that is fully parametrized, provides possibility of personalization and that has been fully approved by pro-riders.
KEY R&D STUDIES CARRIED OUT
Development of numerical models for the hydrodynamic characteristics of the boards and a structural-strength model:
- selection of important parameters influencing the board performance, definition of requirements for the boards
- CFD numerical studies of the hydrodynamic characteristics of the boards was conducted seeking to improve the aerodynamic profile of the board’s buoyant surface – methodology applied included the Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) method, a two-phase Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes Simulation (RANS) in the Volume of Fluid (VoF) formulation
- Comprehensive FEM model validation or strength testing were applied to systematize the board parameters, like rocker height, weight, flexibility, seeking to improve the board’s performance and durability
- Development of the base structure of the boards for testing
Experimental verification of the developed numerical models
- testing of hydrodynamic characteristics
- strength tests of experimental boards on test track
Advanced tools and software, were introduced to ensure high quality, accuracy and repeatability.
The new construction was designed to give the board more skateboard feel.

CHARACTERISTICS OF THE NEWEST 2025 BOARD SHAPE
SKATEBOARD FLEX AND POP – optimized flexibility for bigger pop, paired with a convex bottom that enhances skateboard-like feel, speed, and controlled maneuverability on water and obstacles.
NOSE&TAIL COMFORT ANGLE – unique design feature that reduces the angle of the sidewall edges at the nose and tail, widening the top surface. This tweak ensures greater rider comfort, smoother slides, and improved maneuverability across all skill levels.
TOP CORE – the main reinforced core of the board, made of wood, for better flexibility and strength of the board when subjected to three-point bending
BOTTOM CORE – milled in wood in line with the geometry of the surface of the bottom of the Top Core, for better stability of the board
