Shadow XL

The Shadow features a high performance outline, the wide point at center not behind as is typical of most other HPSBs. We pulled in the nose by almost a ½ inch and added rocker through the last 12’’ in the nose to keep it freed up through critical turns.It has a gentle hip for added sensitivity and looseness, and the squash tail is pulled in a touch to tighten the turning radius and improve vertical surfing capability. Tail rocker and bottom concave remain similar to the Phantom, already proven to work well in everyday conditions around the world. The Shadow was awarded SIMA Shortboard of the Year for 2019. Already a favorite of John John Florence, Jack Freestone and the rest of our team, it’s the board that lets you surf how you want in a wide range of wave conditions and size. Knowing that the Phantom is a great board for many types of conditions, Jon decided to start with there and redesign it as a more refined, high performance board, while still keeping the added flow and glide that defines the Phantom. The Shadow XL The Shadow XL is our larger dims/volume version of the newest addition to the Ghost family, built for surfers looking for the performance of a traditional shortboard with a more modern outline in larger dimensions. ](https://pyzel-surf.myshopify.com/collections/shadow-xl)
