Makaha 12-9 at the Main Beach Mount Maunganui. This surfboard has a great glide factor, feels very fast and carves nicely through turns. Lift from the 4 inch diameter tunnel fin keeps the pitch well controlled like a trim tab so that the board's low tail rocker runs flat and fast. Turning works predominantly via roll through rail line carving. Life is good!

why have you increased the speed on your video clip?
ReplyDeleteWe haven't, it's shown at the normal speed.
ReplyDeletealso why do you wear a helmut and not a leg rope?
ReplyDeletefrom my calculations (and with a limited frame of reference) you are travelling at 43mph in sections. could you confirm whether this is correct?
