DESCRIPTION:
Eric Christenson's California adaptation of the evolution era Vee-bottomed boards pioneered by Australia's short-board revolutionaries in the late 60's and early 70's.
Flat rocker with a domed deck allow for plenty of buoyancy as well as extremely fast paddle and trim speed. Rails are dropped low, with tucked speed edge in the rear 1/4 of the board's rail. The magic is in the deep Spiral Vee from amidships to the wide square tail, which effectively creates 'dual rocker' outlines: flat rocker down the center line, but a lifted rocker out the tips of the square tail. Fast and lively, speed to burn.
DESTINATION:
Versatile design for use in everything from open faced point waves to beach breaks and reefs. Knee to overhead.
FINS RECOMMENDATION:
Raked, whippy template with long base: Greenough 4A or Velzy Hot Curl template
