Its slightly straighter outline helps with projecting this board in the fast-moving waves of the pool. We found the swallow tail works best with the extended rocker maneuvering the board from rail to rail very quickly. We recommend building your Pool Toy with our Flextronics technology. This will make the board feel very lively in the fresh water without being too buoyant like an epoxy sometimes does.

]]> This is our go to model when traveling to the ever-increasing man-made waves around the world.

With all the hype surrounding freshwater wave pools, and having Chemistry ambassador, Cheyne Magnusson, operating the B.S.R. wave pool in Waco Texas, we decided to build a model catered to freshwater surfing.

The “Pool Toy” was developed by Jason Bennett with the need to create a high-performance board that will fit in the tight pockets of man-made waves

Extensive Ramp'd went down in the creation of this model with our team riders to create a high performance shortboard that excels in about every type of wave. The blind “taste test” went on for a year while we compiled feedback critical in the design of this model.

]]> The Honey Dip has a relaxed entry rocker with a single concave feeding into a deep vee off the tail. We widened the tail block ½” more than our standard shortboard models which helped create the straighter outline in the back half of the board for speed unlike any other shortboard we have designed.

The tail also boasts an extreme hip creating a “sweet spot” for increased maneuverability without the loss of speed. Lastly, the fin cluster is pushed back because of the tail width and hip, enabling maximum control without the drifty feel usually associated with wider tail blocks and hips.

This board excels in performance driven waves like Lowers, the North Shore, or anything that calls for a blade to be ridden.

]]> Our newest high-performance model to hit our line. Developed with Barron Mamiya

The B-Side is our most high performance shortboard in our line. It also has the deepest single concave, and most accelerated rocker of any performance board we have built.

The board also has a thicker nose foil which assists in catching waves.

The R2 has been proven to work consistently in all conditions whether you’re surfing a 2-foot beach break or an 8-foot reef.

]]> The R2 model has been ridden and tested by our entire team for many years now. From San Diego beach breaks to the racetrack at Ululate, this board has been put through its paces.

The R2 has a gradual nose and tail rocker as well as a slight single concave throughout the board

This board has an accelerated rocker which allows it to fit well in punchy, curvier waves. The block swallow tail extends the rail line and gives you a definitive pivot point to turn off.

]]> A complement to our B-Side model, Side-A is our new shortboard for 2019.

Our newest performance shortboard in collaboration with Chemistry’s team riders. The Side-A model fits between our user friendly R2 model and our most high-performance board the B-Side. The Side-A has a deep single concave which allows this model to gain speed very quickly. The nose is more pulled in than our R2, and the back half of the outline is a bit straighter which allows you to gain maximum speed effortlessly.
