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.
A high performance smaller wave design with a lower rocker line with a wider, more balanced outline. Bottom contours are a single concave running into a slight vee off the tail. The fin area features an inset blended double concave. The wing in the outline reduces tail area behind the back foot as well as creating a 'breaking point' in the outline for release and pivot.
