Shaper comment:
This design was initially
made for Dave Reardon
Smith, being a top aerial
surfer. It gave him higher
speed on the face of the
wave, a higher running
line and more power
out of turns. 100%
Aussie-made from the
Underground shaping bay.

Rider comment: “After
catching a couple of
waves went to the back
and found it was really
maneuverable, very fun
and you could walk up and
down it as well”
