This high-performance mid-length surfboard, rigged as a 2+1, is ideal for carving in all types of waves. It’s very suitable for powerful point break waves up to 2 meters. It performs excellently in tubular beach break waves. Equipped with twin fins, it’s dynamic but with slightly less drive in concave waves. Fins not included.

Shape

Created in collaboration with Jeremy Smith (Hendaya). Slender outline. Fairing: shell at the front to facilitate take-off in hollow waves, ending in a double concave in the rear three-quarters of the board for greater maneuverability. Bevel-shaped rails for better water entry during changes of stance.

Construction

Laminated over a 30kg/m3 EPS core with epoxy resin and fiberglass. Top: 2 layers of 6oz, 1 layer of 4oz. Bottom: 1 layer of 6oz, 4oz fin box reinforcement. 5mm paulownia wood beam.

Advantages of EPS/EPOXY boards

We opted for this type of construction for our surfboards because it offers several advantages. Epoxy resin is more resistant to shocks and dents than polyester resin. The board will have greater responsiveness and will be able to generate more speed. EPS (expanded polystyrene) foam floats better, so with an equivalent volume, you will enjoy more buoyancy than with a polyester/polyurethane board.

Fins

 For powerful waves and a height of +70 kg, the 2+1 setup with a 7″ single fin and 4″ side fins.

For smaller waves, single or twin setup. Twin setup ideal with Keel type fins.
