Daydream Hull

For the last few years, we’ve focused on translating all the benefits of a displacement hull (effortless trim, full rail engagement, and a ball bearing feel underfoot) into a smaller and shorter package, allowing for the quick adjustments and sensitivity that surfing in beachbreaks requires. Kennelley’s current board is only 5’8! I cooked up the Daydream Hull specifically for Kyle Kennelley at Daydream Surf Shop in Costa Mesa, and designed it with the punchy beachbreaks nearby specifically in mind. I grew up surfing Newport and have amazing memories of the wedging turquoise peaks it can produce. The bottom contour is a blended tri-plane entry fading into panel vee ahead of and around the fin, transitioning to flat behind the fin. The rails are turned up in the nose, 50/50 through the center, and flipped down with a tucked edge through the tail.
