Bumper
Embracing the best of both worlds, this performance shortboard design blends the speed and skatiness of a wider diamond tail, with the tight carving characteristics of a more pulled in round tail. The toe side features a shorter rail line, but has more planing surface and less curve. Its combination of design features promote efficiency in all aspects. The bottom shape consists of panel V entry with inverted V cut into it, effectively straightening the center entry rocker curve while retaining the advantages of the raised rail line entry for late takeoffs. It then transitions to an offset single concave that is deepest under the toe side that eventually evens out to flat at the tail tip. The heel side tail rocker has a generous amount of curve that accelerates around the fins, shortening its turning radius and enabling tighter carves. The Bumper is a highly reliable shortboard capable of connecting maneuvers in open faced waves, as well as handling steep takeoffs and navigating in tubes.
