Description
The Stealth Squash Tail Skimboard features a broader mid-section designed to achieve stability, control, long lines and a fast glide. Highly responsive, this board design provides speed and lift and the ability to maintain speed in slower spots. The squash tail’s rounded corners give more bite and control than a round tail and the square end allows the board to release for more pivotal and abrupt turns. The combination of a stiff upgraded composite deck and a shock absorbing, surf board-style glassed bottom brings the rider less flex, greater distance and harder cuts.
Construction: Custom built in the USA. Individually hand crafted, double wrapped rails, strategic reinforcement points and power rods combined with these premium upgrades:
- Warp glass, designed specifically for the surf industry. While standard E Glass & S Glass have a 50/50 weave, Warp is specialized with 75% thread running nose to tail and 25% running rail to rail. Imagine having a series of stringers in your board. The result is an incredibly strong board without added weight.
- Silmar® resin. Formulated in Hawthorne, California in 1961, and sold worldwide, it is the most widely used surfboard manufacturing resin in the industry. The development of this premium resin continues to reach the goals of high clarity, excellent UV-resistance plus remarkably stable viscosity (consistent flow while laminating and kicking). Cures to water clear finish.
- A high density Divinycell foam core. The out in front industry leader in quality, Divinycell boosts dimensional stability and fracture toughness like no other.
