[ The Wolf | Step Ups ]
DESCRIPTION The Wolf is a step up high performance shortboard designed a few inches longer and marginally thicker than a pure shortboard. This design extends shortboard performance into powerful and larger heavy water waves. Extra length and hidden foam in the profile provide better paddling, easier entry, and improved acceleration and projection in critical and powerful waves. DESIGN FEATURES ROCKER The Wolf features either Speed Box or Continuous rocker. Speed box rocker is versatile and maximizes performances in all step up conditions. Continuous rocker is an option for vertical and barreling waves. PROFILE & FOIL Profiles and foils mimic short board profiles and foils with emphasis on volume for paddle and entry in step up conditions, yet foiled in the nose, tail, and rails like a pure shortboard. OUTLINES Round Pin or Swallow. BOTTOM CONTOURS Shallow vee in entry, moderate single concave starting between entry and wide point. Concaves reach 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. The Wolf may also feature reverse vee bottom contours. The vee to double to single concave reverse vee bottom offers maximum directional stability and maximum power and acceleration. RAILS Moderately full yet low crowned rail profile. Rail volume varies with surfer's size, technique, and preference - more rail volume for techniques that generates greater displacement - less rail volume for light footed techniques. |

WOLF ROCKER OPTIONS |
| |
SPEED BOX rocker is the primary rocker option for the Wolf. 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 with the Speed Box highlighted in red |
| |
|
| |
CONTINUOUS rocker features a continuous curve from nose to tail
with minimum reduction of curve mid board. They excel in crisp,
critical, steep, and barreling 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 critical
and challenging waves without compromising projection, acceleration,
and speed.
|
| |
CONTINUOUS ROCKER - Note the constant curve from nose to tail compared with the Speed Box Rocker highlighted in blue and the Speed Box Rocker's speed box highlighted in red. |

WOLF BOTTOM CONTOUR OPTIONS |
| |
|
| |
SINGLE to DOUBLE CONCAVE with crowned deck and moderately crowned rails. Single concaves and single to double 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. Single to double concave provides acceleration, projection, speed, and maneuverability. Crowned deck and rail profiles maintain control and stability. |

SINGLE to DOUBLE CONCAVE |
| |
|
| |
VEE to SINGLE to DOUBLE CONCAVE with crowned deck and moderately crowned rails. The Vee in nose and entry create additional control and stability and help initiate rail to rail transitions. 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. Single to double concave provides acceleration, projection, speed, and maneuverability. Crowned deck and rail profiles maintain control and stability. |

VEE to SINGLE to DOUBLE CONCAVE |
| |
|
| |
SINGLE CONCAVE with crowned deck and moderately crowned rails. Single concaves provide acceleration, projection, speed, and maneuverability. 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 navigating barrels with nuanced turning radii from a wide variety of angles. Water flows rail to rail at any angle in a single concave and organically creates maximum lift and performance features. Single concaves provides acceleration, projection, speed, and maneuverability. Crowned deck and rail profiles maintain control and stability. Crowned deck and rail profiles maintain control and stability. |

SINGLE CONCAVE |
| |
|
| |
VEE to SINGLE CONCAVE with crowned deck and moderately crowned rails. The Vee in nose and entry create additional control and stability and help initiate rail to rail transitions. As water flows from rail to rail at any angle in a single concave it organically creates maximum lift and performance features. Single concaves provides acceleration, projection, speed, and maneuverability. Crowned deck and rail profiles maintain control and stability. |

VEE to SINGLE CONCAVE |
| |
|
| |
VEE to DOUBLE to SINGLE CONCAVE with crowned deck and moderately crowned rails. This is an intriguing bottom that offers great performance. The vee to double from nose to entry to wide point offer control and lift and the double to single wide point to tail offer power, projection, and maneuverability. Nuanced variations in tail rocker create a variety of vertical angles of projection out of powerful bottom turns. |
