VOLUME 'SHORTY+' SURFBOARD
"You’ve mastered a funboard and you’re ready for a ‘shortboard’… What should you do? I’ve been asked this question a thousand times, and it’s the reason I designed the Shorty+.
The worst thing a surfer can do when coming off a longer, wider board, is to ride a board that’s too narrow and thin. You’ll struggle to catch waves, and surfing will be difficult.
I’ve solved this issue by offering a shortboard that’s easy to turn, but maintains key features that make longboards and funboards so popular; stability and paddle power.
The size to volume ratio on the Shorty+ is the key to this model. Its wide enough to feel stable as you jump to your feet, has enough buoyancy to catch waves easily and hold speed, yet its short enough to turn freely as your skills improve.
Targeted at the developing surfer wanting to improve their skills at a really fast rate. Heavier, more capable surfers needing a ‘big boy’ shortboard that’ll meet their performance expectations will also find this model most appealing" Richie Lovett
