Archangel by AIPA

The ARCHANGEL is purposeful power, reborn from Kolby Aipa’s Hitman—the board that matched his rhythm: fast, fluid, and fearless. It represents the shape he gravitated toward for everything from playful peaks to punchy beach breaks. In Scripture, an Archangel is a chief messenger and warrior of light—a divine being who moves with authority and leads the charge from heaven. That same energy lives in this design. The Archangel is an intuitive daily driver built for surgical surfing in small-to-medium waves, finding its sweet spot in the chest-to-head-high range. Ideal for gliding through beach breaks and attacking oncoming sections, it features a Southern California-inspired rocker, a stepped bottom contour, and full rails that keep it lively yet stable. It moves with intention underfoot—light on entry, firm through turns, and explosive when it’s time to commit. THE ARCHANGEL “For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first.”
