Design & Performance
Narrow, High-Performance Outline

- Deliver quick rail-to-rail transitions
- Support tighter, more critical turns in the pocket

- Predictable, smooth flex through turns
- A solid, connected feel in more powerful waves
- Classic shortboard responsiveness for advanced maneuvers
2 Tab (OG FCS) Thruster Setup
This board features a 2 Tab (OG FCS) thruster fin setup, offering reliable control, drive, and stability. While fins are not included, the OG FCS boxes make it easy to plug in a wide range of your favorite thruster fin templates, whether you’re chasing more hold, more release, or a balanced all-round feel.
Condition Report – Fair but Fully Surf-Ready
