Shortboard

Thursday, October 30th, 2008

The 6’3“ is a high performance board for the guy who still rips but can’t paddle like he used to. It has the same rocker and outline as the CL Pro’s just added width and thickness for the bigger guys. The 6’4 and 6’6” have flatter entry rockers and carry the thickness flow further forward to give them more glide and drive. These paddle like funshapes but turn like shortboards.
Sizes available in Shortboard are:
6′3 x 19 x 2.38
6′4 x 19.25 x 2.5
6′6 x 19.75 x 2.63

MR Super Twin

Sunday, October 5th, 2008

The Super Twin is MR’s ultimate small-wave high performance board. It is fast, loose, and easy to turn. Featuring a single-double concave bottom for speed, a wider template with more nose area for flotation & paddling power, and the original winged swallow tail from the 1970’s twin fins. The leading fins are glassed-on or fiberglass FCS twins, and there is a small FCS (gs) stabilizer in the center back. They perform like faster, looser thrusters; tons of fun in small waves (1’ to 5’). When choosing a size, a rough rule of thumb is to go 2” shorter than your normal thruster. Available in sizes 5’10” -7’0 / width’s 19’-20.5” / thickness 2.25”-2.75”

MR Retro ‘80

Sunday, October 5th, 2008

This is a replica of MR’s favorite twin fin, which was a magic contest board. Originally shaped in 1980 for the June South Africa event, MR won the Gunston 500 and Hang Ten International on it. It has been faithfully re-created with the same outline, foil & rocker, fins & position, and MR sprays as the original. It features a deep V to get it flowing rail to rail, a fluted wing for holding power, and a template with a lot of forward area, making it a dream to paddle and ride in small waves. It is fast, loose & a blast from the past. Available in sizes 5’6” to 6’6” / 19-21” wide.
normal board.) Comes in squash, or wide round tail. (Which tends to be more versatile as the surf gets overhead).

WCT

Sunday, October 5th, 2008

Redesigned “proformance” shortboard for ‘06! Drawing on influence from many WCT surfers and the shapers who’s boards they are riding, we created a board that can meet the demands of the very best, while still being user friendly to the masses. Obvious changes are the square rails in tail area, rounder rails forward and increased nose kick in forward 12″. The WCT features a narrower “hip” area between the feet in the outline and a blended drawn out rocker with more tuck further back in the rails than our other shortboard models. It has the ability to hold in and turn critically in larger waves w/o riding a larger board. The concaves are more pronounced and drawn further back into the tail than in the past. All these features give the rider a board that has “no surprises” and feels fast and drivey in 3′ slop yet holds in and performs in well overhead waves. Comes in squash and rounded pin tails.

Whiplash

Sunday, October 5th, 2008

The Pros custom order board of choice. The majority of our team has been using whiplash’s for most of their surfing. This years version features our trend towards a deeper concave set further back into the tail. Built for precision, tight radius, high speed, spontaneous surfing. The mind set behind this board was “anything not needed, take out”. Low volume (but boxy) rails, vee deck, elliptical outline (No hip or bump in the tail) with narrower nose and tailblock combined with an aggressive rail rocker in the tail make this the most sensitive and responsive board we offer. Not recommended for below average surfers, but for the guy who wants to elevate his performance to the highest level. Performs best in curvy waves of any size. The Round tail has been a growing favorite for the WQS and WCT surfers coming to us for boards.

SD-II - Speed Demon Two

Sunday, October 5th, 2008

(Our Best Selling Model two years in a row) It features a low entry rocker into a hyper extended rail rocker in the tail, full forgiving outline and rails, with a deep single to double concave bottom featuring vee behind the rear fin (keeps the drive). After 3 years of production The SD-II has evolved into an international favorite for the every day surfer and is one of the most popular surfboard models on the planet. It’s a perfect blend of full and forgiving , yet high performance board for the every day surfer looking for slightly wider standard dims than the Pros potato chips with out sacrificing maneuverability. Dino and Kolohe Andino’s favorite.

Psycho Ward

Sunday, October 5th, 2008

The CHRIS WARD PRO MODEL is a Hybrid of the WHIPLASH and SD-II. It was designed to handle Chris’s power surfing in weak to average waves. It’s basically a Whiplash with 1/2″ cut off the nose and the tail and added width throughout. It takes the Whiplash’s precision and quickness and makes it more responsive to power surfing in smaller surf (It doesn’t get over powered by hard turns in weak waves). It still has the Whiplash’s low volume (but boxy) rails for sensitivity - but slightly wider nose, tail and overall dims- and less rocker (because of the cut down nose and tail) for quick recovery from rail burying turns. Great for anyone who loves the performance of the Whiplash in good surf but wants something more for the junk (or simply wants the ultimate in small wave power and flow).

Mini Guns

Sunday, October 5th, 2008

Everyone should have one! Because of the WCT “Dream Tour” and all the large perfect waves the guys are competing in, we have put a great deal of focus on this area of board design this year. Designed to be used as your primary travel board or for the best days at home (Unless you live in Hawaii.) This board paddles strong and holds in at high speeds yet still turns wherever and whenever you need it. This years bottoms still have a fine single concave between the feet with flat forward, but now feature a single concave throughout the most of the tail as well, with just a hint of vee behind the back fin. This combined with a bit more tail rocker and “shortboard” rails has made our mini gun livelier and more performance based than in the past. Thin rails in the back half keep it holding in still. Combines speed and forgiveness and turning without too much lift in critical positions or loss of speed.

Tri-Fish

Sunday, October 5th, 2008

Best for solidly built, lead foot and rear footed surfers (down the line air guys dig them as well). Designed as an equalizer for intermediates looking to compete for waves with the hotshots, it has speed and float in everyday surf without giving up much maneuverability. Excels in mushy broken up or slopey drawn out surf. Features a flatter deck with overall low drivey rocker. Conservative shallow concaves neutralize the volume and create a smooth down the line ride with built in speed. (Ride1-2″ shorter and a touch thinner (or not) than your normal board.) Comes in squash, or wide round tail. (Which tends to be more versatile as the surf gets overhead).
