[ Sea Eagles ]
DESCRIPTION
Surfing XXL waves places brutally simple clear cut demands on a
surfboard. Foremost is paddling mobility, catching waves with fluid
entry, complete control dropping in, and getting to and turning off
the bottom or face of the wave with maximum acceleration, projection,
speed, stability, and control. The Sea Eagle is a fundamental and
simple design featuring nuanced XXL Speed Box rocker, drawn out foil
with volume shifted forward, and a convex bottom for minumum drag and
maximum stability and control. This design is tested by and limited
to extremely skilled, experienced and fit surfers for XXL waves.
DESIGN FEATURES
ROCKER Nuanced XXL Speed Box.
PROFILE & FOIL Drawn out foil with significant volume. Volume is
shifted notably forward to create inertia and momentum for
acceleration and projection.
OUTLINE Round Pin, Pin Tail, or Swallow.
BOTTOM CONTOURS Alternative bottom contours include vee entry to
tri plane wide point to rolled panel vee wide point to tail, vee
entry to tri plane wide point to very subtle and shallow single to
double concave from wide point to tail, and reverse vee entry and
wide point with spine fading to very subtle single to double concave
from the wide point to the tail.
DECK & RAILS Flat or crowned deck. Sufficient rail volume with a
well foiled rail profile offering maximum stability, control, and
predictability. |

SEA EAGLE BOTTOM CONTOURS
|
|
|
|
TRI PLANE to ROLLED PANEL VEE bottom with moderately CROWNED DECK
and moderately low crowned rail. Tri plane to rolled panel vee
provides acceleration, projection, speed, and maneuverability,
predictability, and control. The tri plane entry and wide point to
rolled panel vee widepoint to tail is the optimum convex bottom. It
offers excellent rail to rail transitions and acceleration on rail as
if surfing on a nearly frictionless ball bearing. Crowned rail
profile maintains control and stability. |
|
|
|
|
|
REVERSE VEE to DOUBLE CONCAVE bottom with moderately CROWNED DECK
and rail. Reverse vee double concave provides maximum acceleration,
projection, speed, and maneuverability. Reverse vee double concaves
feature a spine from nose to tail. The spine is vee in entry and
shallow double concave wide point to tail. Vee is deepest in the nose
and entry and reduced as it flows to the tail. Water flows from the
rail the peak of the double concave at the center of the bottom
creating additional lift, acceleration, and speed and with it's spine
offers exceptional directional stability, power, and acceleration
through turns. Optionally, reverse vee can feature a spine from nose
and entry through the wide point to the tail with vee accelerating in
the fins and tail. Crowned rail profile maintains control and
stability. |

|
|
TRI PLANE to ROLLED PANEL VEE bottom with FLAT DECK and chiseled
down rail. Tri plane entry and wide point to rolled panel vee
widepoint to tail for absolute minimum drag provides acceleration,
projection, speed, and maneuverability. The tri plane entry and wide
point to rolled panel vee widepoint to tail is the optimum convex
bottom. Flat deck provides extra volume and stability. Chiseled down
rail profile for critical control and stability. |
|
|
|
|
|
TRI PLANE to SINGLE to DOUBLE CONCAVE bottom with FLAT DECK and
chiseled down rail. Tri plane entry and wide point to a subtle and
very shallow single to double concave widepoint to tail provides
exceptional acceleration, projection, and speed. The spine of the
double concave functions like a vee offering predictable directional
stability. Flat deck provides extra volume and stability. Chiseled
down rail profile provides control and stability. |
|
|
|
Flat or Crowned decks and Chiseled or Crowned rails may be
integrated with any of the Sea Eagle bottom contour options. Surf
conditions and surfer preferences determine design
combinations. |
