The Sub Driver 2.0
Our best small wave, performance shortboard just got better!
Since its inception, each version of the SUB DRIVER has remained our most successful, small wave competition surfboard. From Kolohe Andino’s 2011 run of 5 WQS event wins (WCT qualification) to Mick Fanning taking notice and famously grabbing one of Kolohe’s discarded SUB DRIVERS, blazing through heats at The Lowers Pro and subsequently claiming the board had “Completely changed his perception of what a competition board can be”. The SUB DRIVER has remained a mainstay of our competitive team rider’s quivers. Year after year, competitors around the world request the SUB DRIVER as a special weapon for the varied and unpredictable WQS surf, yet just about anyone with even modest skills can ride this board as a daily driver.
The SUB DRIVER 2.0 is the latest iteration in the continuing evolution of our most user friendly, pro-formance shortboard. Developed in the soft peeling points of San Clemente, it loves small to average surf and really does well in connecting the dots in mushy points, or weak, broken up beach breaks. A surfboard developed for competitors in sub-par surf, that actually transitions perfectly to everyday surfers.
The SUB DRIVER 2.0 was derived to benefit the Pros, yet it really is perfect for most “Bros”.
Reflecting the small wave demands from Kolohe Andino, Griffin Colapinto and our up and coming team of Jr Pros and WQS Warriors, constant evolution and noticeable updates have brought us to the point where we are now proud to launch the SUB DRIVER 2.0.
Lightspeed Construction
A new realm of possibilites for high performance surfing...both on the face and in the air.
LightSpeed is a new EPS board creation from the master himself, Matt Biolos. A feather light and exceptionally fast new combination, allowing you to take your surfing to new levels of speed and performance. All while keeping the board really durable for longevity. LightSpeed was developed in-house using our crew of board builders, who worked closely with the team of top flight professional surfers to create the best possible technology for high performance surfing.
ULTRA-LIGHT / ULTRA-LIVELY FOAM CORE:
Steam molded, high strength-to-weight ratio, fused cell, water resistant, stringer-less EPS foam core.
ADVANCED EPOXY RESIN SYSTEM:
Super high-strength, flexible and impact resistant, allowing you to perform at your peak while making the board super durable.
WOVEN CARBON FIBER CENTERLINE “STRINGER” (TOP AND BOTTOM):
Engineered to add both strength and Rapid-Reflex “pop”, with just enough release to feel forgiving underfoot. The Carbon loads up under foot pressure, and springs upon release.
FUSED CARBON, TAIL REINFORCEMENT PATCHES:
Transfers more direct input into rail and adds strength.
CENTERLINE ALIGNED CARBON “EXO-STRINGERS”:
Enable natural Torsional Twist, similar to a wood stringer board, but lighter, and with a much faster reflex reaction and more “pop”.
INNEGRA INFUSED, ENGINEERED COMPOSITE FIBERGLASS:
A multi weave (6oz lengthwise, woven with 4oz, rail to rail) fiberglass, top and bottom, adds significant break strength, while keeping the boards ultra-light and ultra-lively.
