Zingers – All Wood Alaias
Board description:
Natural oil protectant or epoxy glassed. These boards are a must have in your quiver. The all wood construction of these surfboards makes them beautiful works of art. The Zinger models are fast and super fun riding either prone (on your belly) or standing tall and straight. The single concave bottom and hard rails allows for fast trim speed and added traction in steeper waves. The deck roll on the top of the board is just enough that water is being channeled off the deck and around your body or your feet (prone or standing), and also moving around the bulk of the board. The board will displace water, plane on top of the water, slice through and stick to the water all at the same time. This happens with subtle changes to rocker, rail contour, wave face, and speed, which are always changing at any given moment on a wave… The key to this boards appeal is the way it compensates through design and flex. An essential board for every quiver.
What to expect from this board?
The board is swam more than paddled, the inside of your arms and chest help guide it through the water, expect big smiles and laughter riding either prone (on your belly) with or standing straightbacked and loose knees. Expect many sessions diciphering the boards dynamic of shape and contour, also expect many years of sharing fun friction free surfing with friends, family, and others. aloha
