Short and Sweet

This is a prototype extra short  (5’0″) summer slop board largely inspired by hydrodynamicas hugely popular Mini /Simms models. It’s stringerless EPS epoxy with full pigment. The fins are custom-made EPS foam core (to save weight) single foil (to add drive) mounted with moderate cant and toe. Bottom contours are really basic on this one with a flat bottom to vee in the tail. This board is mine and was made for simple speed and tight turning in slop. Pretty basic – short= quick turns and bigger rudders= more drive. I haven’t been able to ride it yet cuz of my health but hopefully soon.
