This board is 6’0 / 29.7L

This is a high performance shortboard by Kelly Slater - responsive, quick, light, and strong with flex.

There is a generous amount of rocker throughout the board, with medium nose and tail and a continuous curve throughout. 

The Helium technology in this board makes it really light and despite not having a conventional stringer, it is extremely structurally strong.

The rails of the board are parabolic,made from paulownia and balsa wood, which provides great flex in the board.

There is shortened stringer (also called a ‘springer’) that covers the middle third of the board. That allows you to ride waves with power and eliminate the vibrating effect.

This board comes with a five-fin setup. Thrusters are the most conventional setup for this board but it will pick up speed with the quad setup.
