"Agility of a small board in a not-so-small body."

This exceptionally stable shortboard for the heavier rider has been given a performance boost with modification of the outline, rails, concave and V. A flatter deck has countered the loss of volume to aid stability as well as providing a smaller, lighter board to throw around (swing weight). Softer, thinner rails forward have improved acceleration and sensitivity, while thicker, squared off rails in the tail also improve drive when the back foot is planted. A deeper single concave also aids acceleration and speed, creating a straighter rocker through the middle of the board. It's a new highlight in our offering, become amazed! "Mono-concave the entire length of the board"
