SEMI GUN
Price: TBA
BIO: The next one up from the Next One Up.
This is when most of your bigger wave spots are starting to max out, when
a lot of water is moving and paddling is as much stressful as it is
crucial. There ain’t no milk and cookies at the end of these waves, only
a horizon stacked with beef.
SPECS: Central thickness and width dimensions
that still relate, somewhat, to your regular shortboard, but thicker at
the very least. Pulled in nose and tail with a moderate rocker increase
running from nose to tail. Light mid-vee with a mild double concave is a
stable, proven bottom.
WAVE POTENTIAL: It’s not just big, it’s
steep, fast and throwing. This one can stay in the garage until the sounds
of incoming swell wake you up at night. Think open-ocean type surf
exceeding double and around triple overhead.
REALITY CHECK: There are few places
accommodating enough for the Semi-Gun. Although the name “Todos” comes
to mind.
GREEN OR GURU? Guru. So you think
you’re ready. Then you’re not ready—knowing is the only answer and
thinking is not enough.
CONFIDENCE BOOST: For those of you who charge
because you can, you’ll feel the ease of a board that’s not too
squirrelly and not too gunny. You’ll get to the outside quick and
you’ll be in the bombs on time and coolly dropping into the best slopes
of your life.
