The Blindspot is a blend of the GrinderX with the Scarecrow. A hybrid of the two for a more versatile, user friendly design for when the waves get a little better and bigger. Compared to the GrinderX, it's a bit more refined in the outline, at the same length it's a little narrower in the center with a slightly pulled in nose and tail. i also added a bit of rocker, but it's still in the lower to moderate range. an ea

An overall lower rocker and a wider outline characterizes this model. Great for everyday conditions, yet works when it gets good as well. The outline is based on some of the very functional curves of the 80's with a fuller template and 'hip' to break up the outline for looseness. All the modern conveniences of contemporary rocker, foil, and contours. One of the most versatile, user friendly shortboard designs.
