WHAT IS HYFI 3.0?

HYFI 3.0 is our next major upgrade to stay on the cutting edge of surfboard construction, utilising everything we’ve learnt from both HYFI2.0 and CarboTune, revolving around a full carbon bottom and rails. For HYFI 3, this provides even better strength and longevity of performance. The main components are: EPS core Unique multi layered epoxy & hybrid fibres Engineered carbon stringers Full carbon bottom and rails Innegra deck reinforcement This new combination of layers gives you a snap back and lively torsion, so as you lean into a turn it’s always loading up and projecting you forward. For any weaker conditions requiring surfers to create their own excitement, it’s the best we’ve made yet.

SCALED ENGINEERING

We first built these scaled pins for use across the HYFI2.0 range, and after overwhelmingly positive feedback, we’ve continued with the same scaled pins in the deck of each HYFI 3. We found the next level of this technology by developing precision engineered stringers, or pins, which are scaled specifically for each board. The size of the pin changes depending on the dimensions of the HYFI, and therefore the weight of its intended rider. The shape of each board’s pin perfectly reflects our goal of making the stiffest part of the board at the centre, tapering out to each end. This results in an even better flex pattern that helps you load and explode into turns.

RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT

We discovered a lot throughout construction of the 100% carbon boards which became CarboTune. It’s been tested by surfers of all sizes, in every type of wave, resulting in a technology that’s been carefully tuned and adjusted for each set of dimensions we build. That means your next best board ever is made in HYFI 3. “The next step was to combine the two. Strength, stiffness and response of the carbon, combined with the spring of HYFI.” JS “What I really, really like about this construction is just how easy it is to surf. The spring and reaction time. With CarboTune, the harder you surf it, the more you get out of it because of the extra stiffness. As for these, you can just surf it at 60-70% and you still get so much benefit.” JS

“It’s addictive. The carbon is so addictive, you ride it and you feel this spring back you’ve never had before. And you want more.” Luke Egan “It has that X factor for me. This is your WRX, if you wanna get somewhere fast this board will get you there.” Joel Parkinson

Flame Fish

THE LATEST AND GREATEST IN OUR LONG LINE OF SUPER GROVELERS

Our unparalleled epoxy technology, HYFI, is a unique multi-layer construction that feels like nothing else out there. Think of it as a futuristic exoskeleton for a surfboard that allows it to be lighter and stronger than ever before, while still maintaining the ideal spring-loaded flex for maximum performance. Now, in the last 5 years since it was first released, we’ve taken everything learned to improve each aspect – the performance, flex, speed, materials used and manufacturing processes.

The Flame Fish is designed for surfers who want to get the most out of even the weakest conditions. Whether you’re dedicated, or just downright desperate for waves, the Flame Fish sits apart in your quiver to maximise speed and ability to throw down manoeuvres. It’s not a jack of all trades, but the master of one – the small stuff.

A wide nose outline combined with a smooth, flat rocker gives you the extra paddle power and glide we all want in weak surf, complemented by a generous distribution of volume under the chest / front foot. A deeper single to double concave provides plenty of lift and easy rail-to-rail transitions, with full rails to reduce catch and increase speed through choppy or soft sections.

Ridden around the same length as your Flaming Pony or approximately 6 inches shorter than your Monsta Box all-rounder, the Flame Fish comes complete with its signature spray and unlimited speed to burn.

BOARD OVERVIEW

FLAME FISH

WAVE TYPE

The Flame Fish is our most extreme and dedicated small wave summer board. It has all the features to get you the most fun out of the poorest crumbly days. Ideal for knee to waist high waves, the Flame Fish will be super fun in anything up to 3 feet. The Flame Fish skates over any flat section and is always fast and lively in full waves.


FLAME FISH

Features

Rocker

An overall low to flat rocker is the perfect all-round rocker creating speed and glide in small to average conditions.

Fin setup

Flame FIsh comes stock as a five fin and will work equally well as a quad or thruster depending on the conditions. Alternative setups are available with custom orders.

Glassing specs

Hyfi 2.0 construction.

Rail type

Flame Fish has full rails, reducing catch and increasing speed in and out of choppy or soft sections.

FLAME FISH

CONCAVE

A specifically designed, narrow concave for the wider board. Still involving a single concave starting in the nose to direct water under your feet for lift and speed. Double concave starts in front of fins which maintains lift and directs water release towards a gentle Vee out the tail for maximum manoeuvrability.
