WAKESHOP VERDICT
Our take on this board.
The Space Melter is unlike almost anything else in our range. At 165 cm with a snowboard-inspired outline, huge tip and tail scoop and seriously soft flex, it unlocks a completely different style of park riding. Butters, presses, wheelies and technical rail tricks feel incredibly natural, yet the narrow waist gives it far more edge control than its unusual shape suggests. If traditional wakeboards are starting to feel predictable, the Space Melter is exactly the kind of board that can make the park feel new again.
BEST FOR
Cable parks, technical rails, deep presses, butters, wheelies, reverts, creative park riding and snowboarders wanting a familiar style of board feel
NOT IDEAL FOR
Complete beginners, dedicated boat riding, riders wanting a conventional compact wakeboard feel or riders primarily focused on maximum kicker speed and explosive air tricks
WHY WE STOCK IT
Why it earns a place at WakeShop.
We stock the Space Melter because it pushes cable riding in a genuinely different direction. Rather than simply refining a conventional park shape, Slingshot and the Space Mob created a snowboard-inspired 165 cm platform built around deep presses, butters and technical rail riding. Its soft tips provide huge freedom on features while the narrow outline and supportive centre retain enough control and pop to keep it feeling purposeful rather than gimmicky.
