GREAT WHITE TWIN VOLCANIC

The Great White concept was an idea Kelly had. Over dinner one evening, he showed me a photo of a Great White shark and asked If I could incorporate the curves of an apex predator into a board design. A bit taken aback, | listened to his idea of turning this into a performance twin. With the photo next to me, | worked on the outline taking the shark's curves and flow, balancing it visually with some dimensions I had in mind. Checking back with Kelly we moved the wing around and came up with a good balance. With the width, we decided on I could get the proper lift needed with simple bottom contours. | decided to use my most performance shortboard rocker that's evolved over 20+ years. Outline, rocker, bottom contours in balance. I'd love to give a romantic story about how we spent years on a design, but the first shape was magical

It's a fast paddling short board with 2 fins! Should be ridden about 2 inches shorter than your everyday "go to" board. It fits in the pocket, drives through barrels, and makes hyper speed on rail. Low drag without a rear fin or minimizing it with a smaller rear fin is another gear. Not a huge transition from a normal short board to this twin.
