This board is a bit special in more ways than one. A winged pin design with soft airbrushed fade on the deck and spectacular wave mural airbrush on the bottom. Designed and hand shaped by Terry Fitzgerald and airbrushed by master artist Martyn Worthington, the foiled profiles of this boards is a standout feature, with the wide point well forward of halfway and full soft rails blending to knife-like edges in the tail area. And those pinched wings? Pure Hawaiian-inspired speed machine. This board tick many boxes: purposeful design, refined profiles, minimalist yet fully functional single fin. A kinetic sculpture, aesthetic aquatic dissection device, functional art. In big demand with collectors around the globe, there is no mystery as to why boards like this command attention.
