are designed to please both intermediate paddlers and experienced, hard core “hot doggers”.
Rugged EPS Epoxy Construction.

A maneuverable wave board with “old school” nose riding capabilities. This design is user friendly and works well in both windy and glassy conditions. Using a wider outline yet less thickness the board has good stability and is quick to react to control input.

The biggest difference is in the construction. The Superlight is made with an epoxy PVC sandwich technique pioneered by Cobra that is now the industry standard. The light EPS foam core is covered with a thin sheet of glass that gives structural integrity and allows the factory to use less fiberglass and less epoxy resisn, An extra step is added when the board is vacuum bagged to remove any excess resin. The result is a lighter and stronger board that will last longer.

The Superlight has a nose to tail deck pad, G-10 fin, and a deck mounted fin box for handle or windsurfing rig attachment. This board will appeal to the top paddlers who are looking for the best all around board in the most sophisticated construction.

The 11'3" is designed to be versatile shape that is suitable for the first time paddler, as well as more experienced riders who are looking for a board that can used in flat-water or surf. John was able to achieve this when he discovered that a board's stability comes primarily from length and width, not thickness or volume. So he made this board 29 1/2 wide so that anyone can start out on it in flat-water. For surf conditions, he thinned out the rails and gave it a modified longboard rocker, so it reacts quickly and holds an edge.

Durability was also a top priority, so this board features a Duratec bottom sheet, which is basically a very thin layer of ASA plastic that is laminated to the bottom to prevent dings and scratches. This layer does not add weight because it replaces the final hot-coat or paint. Then the top is covered with an integrated EVA deck pad that runs from nose to tail for traction and comfort. No waxing required. An added benefit of the thin shape is that less material is used so the boards come out lighter than thicker designs. The 11'3" averages 27 pounds.

A fin box is mounted in the middle of the deck to attach a windsurf rig. The size and stability make it a great board for learning to windsurf and experienced windsurfers also love it because it brings back the early days of simply getting on the water in all conditions without specialized gear. This deck box can also be fitted with a webbing strap for use as a carry handle.
