Hyperlite Kruzr w/Team OT Bindings 2026

The KRUZR isn’t just a wakeboard — it symbolizes hope, purpose, and community. 

Every time you ride it, you carry a piece of Gray’s light with you. Every sale supports a cause greater than wakeboarding. 

The KRUZR-GLS is a name that pays homage to Grayson Lawrence Stumpf, Aaron’s son who lost his battle with cancer at the age of 12. Rusty and Aaron have always been tight, brought closer together because of Gray.

 Hyperlite and Rusty will be donating proceeds from the sale of the KRUZR-GLS to the Live Gray’s Way Research & Awareness Fund. Never has a Rusty & Aaron shape meant as much as the KRUZR-GLS.

Hyperlite’s new KRUZR-GLS is a collaboration between R&D head Aaron Stumpf and Rusty Malinoski. Aaron shaped Rusty’s 1^st first ever pro model, the Marek and every board since. This board is a departure from the aggressive style ride Rusty is known for, this new shape is a nimble cruiser.

Innovation doesn't always mean reinventing the wheel. Sometimes, it’s about noticing what’s missing and filling the gap. Enter the KRUZR a board designed for the big guys, with purpose and passion behind it.

Rusty Malinoski, a legend in the sport known for his powerhouse riding, recognized a need. As a big guy himself, he believed there could be a more fitting, supportive board. He shared his vision with Aaron Stumpf, Hyperlite’s premier board shaper. Immediately inspired, Aaron combined Rusty’s insights with his expertise, crafting a design with more surface area, greater stability, and increased forgiveness all without sacrificing performance.

But behind Aaron’s shaping is a story of courage, loss, and legacy.

The Team OT Binding was built for a rider looking for the feel and functionality of a very supportive binding with adjustability and the ability to share. The slightly higher cuff and seamless liner construction allows for additional support with a comfortable fit. The adjustable open toe design makes it a great choice to accommodate a wide array of foot sizes. Dual quick cinch lace zones allow for easy entry and exit at the beginning or end of your set. The Team OT Binding also utilizes the new Low Pro Plate System for a lighter weight feel and the closest foot to board connection possible.

Features

Kruzr Wakeboard

The KRUZR-GLS has more surface area than any other board but has been shaped to maintain a lively feel with a minimum thickness profile. More comfy than previous shapes, Rusty feels all ride styles and ability levels will enjoy this new shape which will surely suit riders in the 200+lbs range. 

Aaron brought new features like the Boneline Grab Rail and Cupped Tail Rail design allowing the wider board to sit deep in the water for a solid edge hold on approach. The Molded Landing Feature is included while the overall base design is simpler, delivering that cruisy flowy feel between tricks and carving the wake.

Rusty still enjoys smashing dubs and going big, the KRUZR-GLS offers more pop and landing stability for the biggest of airs.
