[ Contemporary Performance Longboard ]
DESCRIPTION Contemporary Performance Longboards are designed to offer a surfer progressive turns, trim, and nose riding in one versatile surfboard. The rocker, profile, and outline have curves that fit and trim tight in the pocket and on the open face of waves. Outlines are marginally narrower than traditional long boards and feature a narrower nose and tail. Convex bottom contours provide lift, glide, and control featuring subtle tri plane from the nose to entry to wide point and panel vee with soft rolled transition along the stringer from wide point to tail. Optional shallow concave in the center plane of the tri plane from the nose to entry to wide point offers excellent forward trim speed and stable nose riding. Rails mimic contemporary shortboard rails - low neutral nose, entry, and wide point to tucked edge in the tail engaging and releasing the board in the face of waves with predictable control. Lighter foam density and glassing schedule contribute to notably more sensitive performance than Classic LBs. DESIGN FEATURES ROCKER Speed box, continuous, or relaxed rocker. PROFILE & FOIL Moderate foil with a lot of hidden volume. OUTLINE Round pin, squash, or square. BOTTOM CONTOURS Tri plane nose and entry to wide point. Rolled panel vee wide point to tail or optional spiral vee fins through tail. Optional shallow concave in center plane of tri plane nose to wide point for forward trim and nose riding. RAILS Crowned profile or fuller crowned profile - tuned to surf conditions, surfer's size, displacement, and technique. |

TRI PLANE to ROLLED PANEL VEE bottom with slightly crowned deck and crowned rail profile. The tri plane entry with rolled panel vee wide point to tail has minimum drag providing acceleration, projection, speed, and maneuverability. Optionally, the center plane of the tri plane can feature a shallow 1/8" concave creating notable lift and speed for nose rides, forward trim, and paddling into waves. The panel vee wide point to tail offers exceptional rail to rail transitions. The crowned deck and rail profile maintain control and stability. |
