The Magic

The Magic is a refined classic outline dating to 1969, designed to glide through sections in small surf and make smooth, powerful turns in larger waves. Medium-hard 60/40 rails transition to an edge in the tail, and mild rocker aids paddling and speed. The bottom combines flat to medium double concave with vee; a rounded pin supports connected turns and control, while an optional wing adds release, bite, and tighter turns.
