Hydro Flyer
This board was morphed a few seasons back from the ET. We played with it and then played some more until we settled on what we have now.
Basically a small wave fun board designed to kick butt in small garbage waves with no power – hence the higher volume and wider tail.
The Hydro Flyer has a solid single concave with barreling twin flutes right through it fading out in fin area to help drive it down the line. The wider rear end is great for skimming over dead stuff and bump while being very supportive of loose turns.
It’s amazing how this board glides along effortlessly with stability yet still allows top to bottom surfing in the pocket. The double flutes add lift and lighten the ride while making it easy to gain necessary down-the-line speed need in gutless waves.
But it doesn’t stop there! You can take this board and surf it in bigger waves too – easily up to head high. With multiple tail choices such as fish, diamond and squash you can be carving maneuvers you never thought possible
