Fish

This model is based on a Lis fish outline but I have modernised the bottom contours and foil. the idea was to make a board that would paddle into waves easily, have plenty of drive but on the contrary to a traditional fish it has loads of grip. The reason for this was because I wanted it to be more accessible to people who are used to riding shortboards and other modern shapes. On the spectrum of Fish designs this one pulls towards the performance surfing side. This board has been tested in Indonesia, Algarve beach breaks and even pushed to its limit at Kangaroo point break in big surf.

I personally like to ride this board when the waves are breaking close to the shore on a punchy little beach break. Its fast and zippy, gets you over flat sections and pops nicely. It definitely handles mellower point breaks nicely allowing you to surf in the pocket due to its refined foil. I also had a memorable Xmas day surf on a super shallow reef in Indonesia, swell was tiny but this board was amazing to link all the sections on a long wave and dodge a couple rocks.
