The UNLIMITED FAAST PRO is Marcus’ favourite board to paddle.
Originally he designed this board specifically for the M2O. He wanted a board that was going to perform in the best or worst conditions the channel could throw at it on the day. The result was mind blowing. It worked so well in epic downwind runs or just grinding through a flat ocean.

Since James Casey has had this board in Hawaii he has used it for every unlimited race he has entered.  Already it is collecting some serious trophies to its name: and James and Annabel Anderson took out 1st Place at the OluKai 2017 on it.  As well as a double win at the Maui to Molokai Challenge 2017 including Marcus’ second place.

Finally an unlimited board you can be equally competitive in smoking downwind or a grind.

WHY THE PRO RACE BOARD RANGE

With the BalsaFlex technology being used successfully for surfboards for over 20 years and now for SUP boards for over 4 it was only a question of time when a few people approached us to make race boards. The strength and weight saving the balsa sandwich provides is on another level and for these boards it was the ultimate test.

We set ourselves a pretty tough goal, basically to make the best SUP race boards on the market. For that we invited Legend Kelly Margetts to come and take care of it with us. He then brought over Marcus Tardrew who has had years of experience with modern race shapes and development. Finally James Casey was supposed to join Kelly on the battlefield to show off and prove these boards in contests as what they are:

The Lightest. The Strongest. The Faastest! Enjoy…

01 GENERAL GOAL/THEME OF THE BOARD

This is my favorite board to paddle. Originally i designed this board specifically for the M2O. I wanted a board that was going to perform in the best or worst conditions the channel could throw at it on the day. The result was mind blowing, It worked so well in epic downwind runs or just grinding through a flat ocean. Since James Casey has had this board in Hawaii he has used it for every unlimited race he has entered.  Finally an unlimited board you can be equally competitive in smoking downwind or a grind.

05 WHAT YOU THOUGHT OF WHEN YOU DESIGNED IT?

I was fed up with unlimited boards that only worked in epic downwind conditions. I wanted to have fun whether it was 10 or 30knots! I wanted a board that will glide effortlessly through the slower sections to make linking bumps easy and not draining.

I wanted the most responsive steering system possible. I wanted a board that would be fun and faast!!

06 WHAT IT POSSIBLY COMPROMISES ON THEN?

Not much unless you are paddling in dead flat water such as rivers etc.

OUTLINE

BALANCED SHAPE NOSE TO TAIL, VERY PULLED IN AT BOTH ENDS

The nose of this board slices effortlessly through choppy sections while the outline of the tail makes the board feel friction-less.

RAILS

GENERALLY SOFT FULL RAIL

Very soft rails at the ends of the board while slightly hardening through the middle section. No actual hard edge rail anywhere on this board.

ROCKER

FAIRLY BALANCED WITH A FLIP IN THE NOSE

The tail to nose rocker is generally a smooth balanced curve except for the flip in the nose to avoid nose diving.

BOTTOM

FLAT-ROUNDED

DECK

DUGOUT

The dugout deck allows you to stand lower to the water for more stability and power.

FINS

RUDDER

The fin that comes with this board can be used anywhere in the world whether it be in Perth where you will often get weed or Hawaii where you don’t and still have a massive amount of response. I tried a lot of different fins to get to this shape and its basically the most upright foil i could find that won’t catch weed. You set up the responsiveness you prefer by choosing from 3 different settings on the T piece attached to the rudder. The steering arm can be used for natural or goofy straight out of the box. The standing position can be changed to 3 different positions using our adjustable steering lines.

I’m in love with this board. If you love ocean paddling and going faast then look no further. I’ve used in messy side swell downwind, to 5 knot grinds, to epic Maliko and Perth, and I always enjoy the performance and enjoyment  that this board brings.
