The board from the Slovenian custom forge can be customised in terms of stance and construction on request. A low weight and double loop plugs with steel thread make the equipment look very high quality. Depending on your preference and body weight, you can choose between two different sized fin set-ups. Regardless of this, the board gets up to speed effortlessly in the planing phase and runs fast but wonderfully damped in the chop - this provides a lot of safety for jumping and in rough conditions.
This comfort characteristic also continues seamlessly when riding waves: the compact waveboard carves through the bottom turn with full edge grip and quickly puts a stop to annoying chop on the wave face. Long, carved radii over the front foot as well as vertical turns up to the wave lip are possible. Only when the waves become powerful and you are travelling with the smallest sails does the shape reach its limit in terms of turning ability - we would therefore recommend the smaller fin setup for lighter riders (under 80 kilos).
surf conclusion:Super combination of control, gliding power and turning characteristics - and therefore blessed with a wide range of use.
