Who - The Tube Pig is made for a skilled surfer who is looking to surf critical waves.
When - The Tube Pig wants to wallow in the barrel like a pig does mud. Good to Great conditions at strong, powerful, and tubing waves.
What - The Tube Pig is the model you ride when your traditional performance squash tail isn’t up for the job at hand. It paddles well, gets into waves early, but will “knife” into steep/tight waves and hold its line. It should be ridden longer than your traditional HP shortboard but yet not as long as a Gun thus it tends to fit into waves better and increases control when threading the needle on tubing waves. The Tube Pig accomplishes all this through it wide-er nose, a tapered mid-section, and tight pulled in rounded pin tail. The nose/upper half of the board contains more foam than the lower 24” portion of the board which is a huge contributing factor to the paddling ability and hold. Expect yourself to start packing and making more barrels than you have on any other model.
