Thin outline in the tail for excellent release and glide. Dugout standing area for stability and stiffness.

SHAPE DETAILS SUMMARY | DESIGN INFO
OUTLINE
FULLER NOSE AREA, SKINNY TAIL, PIN AT BOTH ENDS
The wider high volume nose keeps the board from diving under and the skinny tail helps to release the water flow from the board.
RAILS
SOFT RAILS THAT HARDEN SLIGHTLY THROUGH THE MIDDLE
Forgiving rails through the whole board so they don’t grab and steer the board keeping it controllable for paddle power and steering off the tail when you need to.
ROCKER
DOWNWIND STYLE ROCKER…
Rocker is based on ease of use down wind. Plenty of kick in the nose to keep it above water. Moderate tail rocker to keep it fitting in the bumps but not so much that it reduces glide.
BOTTOM
FLAT-ROUNDED
DECK
DUGOUT
The board is dugout which allows you to stand lower to the water and therefor more stable in the board. Also you use a shorter paddle allowing you to get more power from each stroke. The dugout design also allows us to carry through that volume into the nose area and also adds stiffness to the board.
FINS
SINGLE
Great directional control.
