The US Blanks 8'2" A is a serious "big guy" surfboard blank designed by Pat Rawson and introduced in July 2008. Built for high-performance retros or fun gun styles, it has a performance bottom curve and enough volume for surfers up to 300 lbs. It can yield roughly 8'0" x 24" x 3 3/4" with adjustable overall rocker and nose width, and trimming 2" off the nose opens up an 18 1/2" nose width for big-guy fish designs. Made entirely in the USA in blue foam.
"I designed the 8'2" A to be a serious 'big guy' blank for either high performance retros or fun Gun styles. It has a performance bottom curve and enough volume for 300lbs surfers... My special thanks to Ben Aipa who provided the inspiration on the overall design of the blank and the 9'3" A." — Pat Rawson
Each US Blanks blank is proudly made in the USA and available made-to-order with custom rocker and glue-ups.
