Vader - Khaki

The Vader is based more on a Retro Style Mid Length Template. This shape is super versatile and we feel it lends itself perfectly to the Hybrid Softboard construction style used on this model. It is ideal for surfers of most levels, and is suitable to use in a variety of wave conditions (either big or small). The template is user friendly enough to provide some extra paddle power, stability and drive, allowing you to squeeze a bit of juice out of the smaller, weaker days. In saying that, the longer rail lengths are sleek and racey enough for for fast, down-the-line speed, and allow smooth, clean turns on open faces in bigger conditions. It's got a relatively low, continuous rocker, allowing the board to glide at speed and turn with ease. We've opted to use a Rounded Pin tail on this model. This tail design provides the benefit of a Pin Tail as it creates a small reduction in surface area to maintain control, while keeping it rounded provide a bit more release enabling smoother, more drawn out turns. This board features a Thruster Fin Set up using single tab fin boxes.
