Wider, more volume with slightly softer plan-shape curves: This creates great paddling qualites, the ability to run across flat sections, enhancing the board's drive out of your turns and down the line speed for tube riding momentum.
The
hybrid has a larger wide point and wider tail than the freeform board.
This board is fast over flat spots and has great maneuverability in the
critical section of a wave. It’s great in small playful waves and works
well for bigger people.

Description
“Designed primarily for quality surf in the 5' to 10' wave range. These designs are what I have used and shaped for Indonesia, Fiji, Hawaii, Tahiti and the more powerful reefs and beaches here in Australia. In these types of waves and conditions I've always preferred a very subtle blending of slight double concave into double concave vee right at the tail. Volume is forward in balance for drive and momentum through turns and when tube riding, the rails are soft but low so that the front half of the board still remains positive facilitating that drive through serious sections and barrels.”
