STUBBY MID
FOR Travelers
The Stubby Mid is designed for surfers embarking on an extended journey with a single board. Ample paddle power and a relatively short outline for a midlength-category board inject twin-like sensations into a wide range of waves and break types.
The concept behind this shape is to prioritize generating drive and cruising on a classic deep line with substantial planing speed. This approach not only benefits your surfing experience but also enhances your local reputation when securing a spot amidst competitive line-ups as a skilled visitor. The twin fin setup provides necessary hold during bottom turns, while the comparably subtle concave in the tail facilitates lip release. This means you can handle impactful maneuvers or execute exquisite roundhouses when the conditions demand.
Fine-tuning is achieved through the choice of fin setup. Opt for half keels or wide twin fins if you intend to ride flatter waves. For steeper faces and larger waves with heightened pressure, the board transforms into a precision instrument with twin fins featuring slightly more rake and less base.
