Surf Tech: Defined

Each shape has been translated from a particular surfboard - our quiver aims at facilitating a variety of riding styles in accordance with terrain and conditions.

It's not just an interesting shape, this is a tool based in the form and function of artisanal high performance.

A culmination of 50+ years of snow sliding design exploration with a specific approach to inscribing precision lines upon mountain slopes through a surfer's perspective.

Unlike the common TwinTip (which handles a lot of variation decently well) - Our shapes are designed with specific intentions to perform in certain ways exceptionally well.

Measurements follow surfboard tradition in feet ' and inches ".

You are welcome to convert to cm. However, because the boards are radically directional in design the numbers may not equate to the commonly utilized specs

Directionality

Because the most efficient shapes in nature are designed to move forward

eg- birds-planes, fish-boats, pine trees-arrows.

Simply put the traditional twin tip is designed like an inflatable raft. Functional for survival when moving in any direction- but lacking in fluid dynamics.

When the goal is to find the most efficient slipstream for movement a kayak is a precision tool.

More Nose- Less Tail

Increase float in powder, quicker maneuverability.

Setback inserts.

Variable Sidecuts

In order to emulate the function of a variety of fin setups to simulate an array of turn shapes to fit the designated pocket

Goldfish (Twin)

R 28’ - even arcing radial turn tapered to initiate off the front foot

RedTail Hawk (Quad)

R 30’|20’ - long swooping drive and sharp adjustments off the tail

- tapered to initiate off the front foot

Trimline Series (Thruster)

R 45’|20’- fast drive down the line with tight cutbacks

- reverse taper

Width

All our shapes are designed to have more surface area under foot to prevent toe/heal drag when carving.

The extra width is integrated with the other dynamics of the board to keep it quick and agile.

Hull

GF and RTH utilize a subtle convexity all the way through the base to ease transition from edge to edge

Taper

Wider nose than tail increases float in deep powder without need for excessive length- initiates turns with front lean

Reverse Taper

Narrower nose shaves off grind while charging down the line and initiates the turn off the rear

Camber

Suspension and pump

Flat

Blends board shape to match turn shape

Early Rise Rocker

Keeps the nose continuously rising above the snow

Edge Bevel

Progressive tuning softens the edge in the nose to decrease catchiness up front and gradually sharpens down the middle to hold carves, negative in the tail allows for slash slip until its put up on edge where it bites with a vengeance to prevent washout

SideWalls

We use a special blend of high density PolyUrethane for a damp feel to accommodate edge control.
