Benefits of EPS/EPOXY boards
We chose this type of construction for our surfboards, because it offers numerous advantages.
The epoxy resin is more resistant to impacts and dents than polyester resin, which makes the board more hardwearing.
The board is more reactive and can gather more speed
The EPS foam (expanded polystyrene) floats better, meaning that, for the same volume, you have more buoyancy than with a polyester /polyurethane board.
Fins
1 x 8" fibreglass centre fin on US box and 2 x 4" side fins on FCS1 boxes.
The further forward the fin is in the box, the more manoeuvrable the board will be. The further back it is, the more drive you get.
Installing a leash (not included)
Be sure to adjust the length of the string that connects the leash to the plug so that the rail saver (protection strap) is resting on the edge of the board.
Protective cover
The board has a Flexi Hex® honeycomb case inside a sturdy box.
This case is reusable in your surfing cover to protect it while transporting.
