[ The Peregrine XV ]

DESCRIPTION

The Peregrine XV is a moderately higher volume version of the Peregrine RT. It is a maximum performance shortboard featuring a fuller crowned deck integrated with a moderately full boxy rail. The extra volume compared to the Peregrine RT is created with extra width and the fuller deck and rail. The Peregrine XV is designed for surfers who prefer more volume in the deck and rail. Like the Peregrine RT it combines rockers and foils for acceleration, projection, speed and control with outlines for lift and maneuverability. Rockers, profiles, and foils adopted from the Redtail offer maximum acceleration, projection, speed and control. Outlines adopted from the Peregrine have the wide point pulled back creating more surface area and curve from wide point to tail. The extra surface area and extra curve offer lift and maneuverability. The combination of these two primary design features creates a board that excels across the whole spectrum of waves and conditions. The Peregrine XV offers maximum performance with notable volume in the deck and rails. It excels in any size waves from knee high to well overhead, any conditions from marginal to powerful, and in mellow to critical waves.

DESIGN FEATURES

Rockers: Speed Box rocker is the primary rocker for the Peregrine XV. Speed box rocker is versatile and maximize performances in all waves and conditions. Optional Continuous rocker for vertical and barreling waves or Relaxed rocker for marginal and moderate waves and conditions. Profiles: Moderately full foil with sufficient volume throughout to support the surfer in marginal conditions yet foiled enough for complete control in critical conditions. Outlines: Round pin, squash, thumb, or swallow. Bottom Contours: Shallow vee in entry, moderate single concave starting between entry and wide point. Concave reaches maximum depth near the leading edge of fin array fading through the fins to the tail. Optional single or single to double concave from the wide point to the tail. The single and the single to double concaves both offer considerable lift, acceleration, and speed. Rails: Moderately full crowned deck. The deck of the Peregrine XV carries more volume to the rail designed to create a higher volume full rail board. See essays on
volume and displacement for more insight on how surfer and technique relate to volume and rail volume in board design.

PEREGRINE XV ROCKER OPTIONS
 
 
 
Speed Box Rockers Speed Box rocker is the primary rocker option for the Peregrine XV. These designs feature an area of reduced curves under the surfer's torso and hips when paddling and under the surfer's stance when surfing. The Speed Box can vary moderately in length and position. The integrated tail and entry rockers are tuned to surfer's technique and surf venues and conditions. This rocker profile can be fine tuned to a wide variety of conditions.
 
Speed Box Rocker - note the area of straighter curves through the mid section of the board with accelerated nose and tail rocker.
 
 
 
Continuous Rockers These designs feature continuous rocker from nose to tail. They excel in crisp and hollow waves. These conditions generally provide all the speed and power required for solid performance surfing. The continuous rocker profile keeps the board free and loose in the pocket and in the tight transitions experienced in challenging - quality waves without compromising speed and projection.
 
Continuous Rocker - note the constant curve from nose to tail with accelerated nose and tail rocker.
 
 
 
Relaxed Rockers These designs feature low tail rocker and relaxed entry rocker. This rocker profile excels in marginal and moderate conditions by generating and carrying speed in and out of the pocket without sacrificing control in powerful surf.
 
Relaxed Rocker - note the low relaxed rocker in the nose and tail.
 
 
 
 


 
PEREGRINE XV RAIL PROFILE & BOTTOM CONTOUR OPTIONS
 
 
 
MODERATELY FULL CROWNED DECK and MODERATELY FULL CROWNED RAIL with SINGLE to DOUBLE CONCAVE Moderately full crowned deck and rail profile maintain control and stability and single to double concave provides acceleration, projection, speed, and maneuverability. The moderately full crowned deck of the Peregrine XV carries more volume from the stringer to the rail. Single to double and single concaves performance varies moderately. The way water flows from the rail the peak of the double concave at the stringer (center of the board) creates additional lift and with it's spine offers directional stability through turns.
 
 
MODERATELY FULL CROWNED DECK and MODERATELY FULL CROWNED RAIL with SINGLE CONCAVE BOTTOM Moderately full crowned deck and rail profile maintain control and stability and single concave provides acceleration, projection, speed, and maneuverability. The moderately full crowned deck of the Peregrine XV carries more volume from the stringer to the rail. Single to double and single concaves performance varies moderately. Water flows in a smooth arc from rail to rail in single concaves enabling powerful, stable, and predictable turns. The smooth rail to rail water flow enables maximum controlled power through turns and nuanced turning radii for a wide variety of turns and barrels in different waves.
