Board Description
Fun and high-performance surfing in small and sloppy waves is what the Wabi has been designed for.
A combination of flat rockers, bottom contours and fuller rails and outline allows this board to inject every session with more joy.
Waves
This board is designed for waves from 2 to 3 ft.
Sizing
Size this board about 1 or 2″ shorter than your height and go over in volume about 1 L. If you get one in eps/epoxy you could ride your std dims.
Tech Specs
Rocker
Flat rocker throughout to give the board tons of speed and drive. This is why you want to ride it shorter than your normal board to get more maneuverability.
Concave
The concave in this board is designed to maximize lift to plane through sections. It starts flat and goes into a double within a single concave that starts around the middle of the board increasing its depth through the fins to increase the lift and loose the tail. It ends with a V bottom behind the back fin to be able to turn sharper in the smaller spaces given by the waves it is designed for.
Rails
Rails carry plenty of volume, making the board stable and buoyant to minimize bog.
Outline
The outline is fuller than the IKi in the nose and tail but the curve of the tail of this board is pulled in a bit to help cope with the extra width.
Fuller outline increases the surface area of the board to help you paddle faster and plane easier on the wave.
