When it comes to high performance and progressive design, the Rising Sun is all of that and much more. This board is designed to generate maximum speed out of every wave and every turn. The wide point is pushed further up the board but we were still able to pull in the nose just a little bit allowing the board to drive in and out of turns without compromising speed. The Rising Sun is designed with lots of volume, fuller outline, and a fuller double wing round tail. The Rising Sun has a flat deck that slowly creeps into a semi turned down rail and has a slight double concave to vee off the tail, The Rising Sun has a medium entry rocker and slight kick in the tail for ultimate high performance. This board was originally designed for a twin fin and small trailer fin in mind but works unbelievably awesome in a tri or quad fin set up. Make no mistake about it, the Rising Sun will be a ?go to? board for any serious surfer.
