The newest version features looks less “Gunny”, and in fact a bit closer to the “Round-Up” But a closer look will reveal subtle differences.
The stock dims on these are significantly more slight as they are on the Round up. The tail outline, although more full than before, is still more pulled than the Round-Up, and they have more overall rocker, with less concave running through it. The combo of increased rocker and less concave reduces lift and allows greater control in, and around the tube. They will react to more subtle nuances and allow more precise positioning, when riding powerful, hollow surf. The slightly more generous outline in the rear 18” of the tail, adds some area under foot, and frees up the board a bit, encouraging a more hot doggy and high performance approach to heavy waves. We wanted to up the surfer and enable them still do some radical turns, when the section allows.
If a Rocket (or other hybrid) has become your favorite daily board, and you find it frustrating switching back to a traditional, pointy nose step-up board on bigger, crowded days …then this board is for you. Designed to be ridden 2-4” longer than you would a Rocket. The low entry rocker, flat deck and tapered rails (with a full forward outline) paddles through crowds and moving water, and catches waves with ease. The pulled in tail, combined with the aggressive tail rocker and a smoother, shallower concave, allows controlled maneuvers at high speeds on waves up to double overhead waves.
