The BlackFish..
It's a "performance fish" with a curvy outline that provides you with plenty of planing area for easy speed and quick down the line acceleration off the front foot, then breaks in outline just behind the rear quad fin. This break in outline disrupts the water flow creating more pivot off the bottom and a lot of release off the tail. The rocker is based off of a relaxed, continuous curve from the tail until about six inches from the nose, where it accelerates. This change in rocker doesn’t take away from paddling and wave catching, but helps to keep your nose from poking and pearling as much as most “flatter/fishier” boards out there. Its built to be really quick off the start and is a very fun, user friendly board for a variety of smaller conditions and skill levels. ENJOY.
It is recommended to be ordered with the 5 fin option- as it goes really well as a quad, or a thruster with two larger fronts and a smaller trailer fin.
