BLACKTIP
Soft & Safe for a beginner...
Performance for a pro.
Blacktip's make surfing safe and easy! They are the all-around safest,
strongest, most progressive softboard ever developed. Constructed with
a beginner in mind, we added extra volume to the boards to make
paddling easy, a stiffer core for speed, and a slick, flat bottom to
make the board stable and easy to catch waves with. Additionally we
have a professionally shaped design and smooth nose rocker (curve) that
makes turning easy once you�re up and riding.
Blacktip were designed using a range of different materials in select
areas to respond to the specific nature of what new surfers are looking
for in a board and to protect against the common causes of damage that
have historically been a burden for surfers unaccustomed to using a
surfboard. Solid black bumpers have been added to the nose and tail to
protect these areas that are commonly damaged in use. Additionally, the
core of a Blacktip is structurally stiffened to protect against the
buckling and undesirable flexing often associated with soft surfboards
after minimal use. The spongy foam deck surface is specialty chosen to
be both soft and comfortable to lie or stand on while holding up
against daily use. The bottom of a Blacktip uses a similarly soft foam
sandwiched under our resilient, slick coating that minimize friction
between board and water to improve the riders ability to propel
themselves across the water. At Surftech we believe a soft surfboard
should not only be a safe introduction to the sport of surfing, but
should additionally offer the performance qualities that help surfers
smoothly progress through the early stages of learning to surf. A new
surfer with a Blacktip under their feet knows they are giving
themselves the best opportunity to gain the most out of every session,
day after day. |
