About this model
mid-length
The CI Mid is a modern egg-inspired mid-length developed with Devon Howard, drawing on the clean, longer-railed lines of traditional eggs and single-fins with modern sensitivity and performance. It is an all-around design for smaller, flatter surf through shoulder-high to nearly double-overhead point waves. ## Features - Sleek egg template, low entry rocker and slightly forward foam support paddling and trim speed - Double-barrel concave, gradually accelerated rocker, and hard, slightly tucked rails through and off the tail support speed, turning and control - A 2+1 fin set developed with True Ames; adjusting the center fin changes its feel across conditions - 3.6-inch side bites are recommended for surfers 160 lb and under; 4-inch side bites for surfers over 160 lb - Stock resin craftsmanship is listed as 6-4 oz decks and 6 oz bottoms
