Board guide 2011

Pre surf:

“I’m really excited to ride this board. It looks like it’ll go super fast down the line and it almost resembles a skateboard due to the super wide tail. There’s also a heap of foam through the centre of the board, so I’m expecting to go like a rocket. I’ve got the future fins wct techflex in this board because they’re quite stiff due to the carbon base, yet they still flex quite a lot and still allow me to jam in the pocket.”

Post surf:

“I had an absolute ball riding this board. I could whip it around because of the super wide tail and it always seemed to have speed thanks to the extra volume through the middle. It was also really responsive and released nice off the top. This board would go like a dream in conditions under four foot. Any surfers from beginner to advance levels could jump on this and rip the waves to shreds.”
