Product Details
Camber Type: Resort V1 + Flat Kick Tech: RESORT V1 Profile boards take full advantage of the benefits of traditional camber, zero camber, and reverse camber. This next-generation design allows you to get the pop and response of a cambered board with all the predictability and easy turn initiation of zero camber or reverse camber shapes.

Flex: Flex Rating: Twin 5.5 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)
Shape: True Twin
Blended Radial Sidecut: BLENDED RADIAL sidecuts feature a single radius arc through the midsection of the board combined with a custom designed blend zone at the contact points. Varying the length of these blend zones and tailoring them specifically for certain aspects of riding greatly improves a board’s performance.
Core: P2 Superlight: Paulownia + Poplar. Extremely lightweight and versatile core combined with high impact resistance and maximum pop.
Laminates: Hybrid Carbon Holysheet Bi/Bi + Magic Bean Resin: The HOLYSHEET™ fiberglass configuration features fiber weaves with a high tensile strength and low modulus of elasticity. With a higher roving count in the same weight of glass, you can have a stronger and more responsive board without adding extra weight. Combine one of these three layups with the MAGIC BEAN™ resin and one of the many additives available, and you get an incredibly high performing board tailored to meet your style of riding.
Base: Quantum Drive Base: The QUANTUM DRIVE™ running base is formulated with a progressive blend of compressed ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene. As an evolution from the already blazing fast SUPERDRIVE™, this running base features higher density for durability and absorbs more wax to wick longer and ride faster. Properly maintained sintered bases are fast, durable, and are the preferred choice of many high-end enthusiasts worldwide.
