A versatile midlength: confidence with control
A spin-off of the Classic Smooth Op (2018), this most-popular midlength adds length and volume to inspire confidence while retaining maneuverability—built to be forgiving yet responsive across many wave types.
Works from mellow mush to serious tubes
The board is engineered to excel in a wide range of surf — explicitly noted to handle anything from 2' mush up to 10' tubes — making it a go-to choice when conditions are uncertain.
Tested on world-class breaks
Developed and field-tested by Matt and friends across Trestles, Indonesian reef breaks, El Salvador cobble-stone points, Nicaraguan beach breaks and Australian sand points, the shape reflects broad real-world input.
