ABOUT THE BOARD

GENERAL GOAL | THEME OF THE BOARD:

An all round board that paddles fast in any condition whether it's flat, side wind or downwind. Also, a lot of fun to tour, surf and paddle in any conditions comfortably. 

CONDITIONS IT'S WORKING BEST:

Any conditions you’d like to paddle in. 

SKILL LEVEL IT'S BEST FOR:

Novice to Advanced. 

PADDLE POWER:

SPEED: Average due to the width of the board.

DIRECTIONAL CONTROL: Good with the parallel outline. 

OVER WHITE WATER: Good

WAVE CATCHING ABILITY: Above average for a touring board. 

WHAT YOU THOUGHT OF WHEN YOU DESIGNED IT?:

This board was designed to be fast in all conditions but also with fairly parallel rails to aid stability for beginners whilst racing and touring. Fairly forgiving rocker, no complex bottom design, just user friendly so the novice can build skills and become more confident.

WHAT IT POSSIBLY COMPROMISES ON THEN?:

Not designed for speed with no compromise, like the pro boards but more user friendly for cruisers, or beginners to racing.
