Well I just wanted to express my gratitude to both you and Todd. After buying...

Features single-to-double concave bottom for a drivey, predictable feel. Lower entry allows you to get into waves early and gain quick bursts of speed down the line. Good amount of tail rocker bending through the second half of the board makes for a tight turning, top-to-bottom board. Drives of the bottom like a dream and carries it’s speed through turns. An all around performance design that pushes back in waves large and small! A personal favorite.
G4-71 Synthesis
The drivey rocker and predictable bottom contours of the SR-71 with the outline and rails of the more swept back G-4+. A great wintertime and travel performance shorty.
- Ideal Conditions: Shoulder-high to overhead
- Experience: Intermediate to advanced
- Designed to: Lacerate on rail

The Holy Roller is a fuller nosed, swept back and pulled in tail for getting deep in slabby tubes. It allows you to ride a shorter, more compact board in bigger waves. As opposed to a traditional step-up that would have more rail line and be like 6-12 inches longer. It holds volume down the center and through the the chest, and tops off with a groovy subtle beak nose to spark in early.

After a 2 year hiatus from doing board breakdowns, mostly just due to being inundated with boards, I’ve decided to make it a point (due to repeated requests) to break down the latest brainstorms and board models and design ideas as they hit me. Here’s an in-depth look at the Falcon 2 & Falcon 3, a versatile groveler and performance shortboard 2-pack that revisit the reverse vee design of the early 90’s, reimagined in an extreme format complemented by a high-powered deeply concaved engine through the fins. #falcon2surfboard #falcon3surfboard
