Board Description
GENERAL GOAL | THEME OF THE BOARD:
A performance fish for everyday conditions.
WAVE TYPE | SIZE IT’S WORKING BEST:
Down the line waves. From knee high up to head and a half.
MANEUVERS IT DOES BEST:
Power carves, Tail Slides.
SKILL LEVEL IT’S BEST FOR:
Novice to Pro.
PADDLE POWER:
Above Average.
WHAT YOU THOUGHT OF WHEN YOU DESIGNED IT?:
‘I wanted to design a fish for the range that had all the traditional elements and features, yet performed like a modern day board.’ Dylan Burger.
WHAT IT POSSIBLY COMPROMISES ON THEN?:
Being a twin and a fish shape, it won’t handle large critical conditions. It can become overpowered and become a little slippery.
OUTLINE:
Fuller nose, wide point forward, parallel rear to a deep fish tail. The whole board is set up for speed and the outline is no different. The fuller nose helps the board climb on top of the water a little easier with the first few strokes. Having the wide point forward creates a longer tail and a shorter nose. The parallel rear enables the board to be super quick down the line.
RAILS:
Low, shortboard performance style. The low rails offer some sensitivity, the first thing you do when turning is bury one rail, when it’s lower it drops in quicker and easier. This helps offset some of the stiffness coming from the outline.
ROCKER:
Quite flat. More so in the nose in comparison to other boards. This gives the board really good carry and allows you to have your weight more distributed whilst the board will still go. As an example, if you jump up with your feet in the wrong spot, it still carries while you shuffle into the right spot so you don’t lose the wave. If you have too much rocker in a tiny board, then your weight must be placed in the exact location to make it go, if not it comes to a stop and the wave gets away from you.
BOTTOM:
Single to double concave. The single concave helps the inside rail engage earlier, initiating turns faster, while also directing water off the outside rail in a downward direction, applying Newton’s 3rd law of physics. Whilst the double helps to create a quicker more responsive feeling under the back foot.
DECK:
The deck is a fairly standard profile, the board is not super thick so even though it has low rails, the roll is quite comfortable.
FINS:
Twin. As a traditional fish should be. Some large area fins really help to make this board fly.
FINAL STATEMENT:
A board that is a traditional fish at heart, yet performs more like a modern day performance short board. A ridiculous amount of fun every time.
