SURFTECH-DARK HORSE (AIPA)
DARK HORSE
More power! The Dark Horse is a lively and responsive board supercharged for high-performance groveling. The Dark Horse combines Ben Aipa’s Wing Twin template, used to make Dane Kealoha’s twins in the late 70’s, and a 90’s Swing Twin squash but shifts the wing placements to engage the wing-to-fin relationship and accent how the board performs as a quad. Featuring, mid-range rockers, a lowered rail apex line, and a staged bottom contour that blends a roll from nose down into a single concave under forward foot, to double concave deepest between the forward fins, then transitioning to a healthy amount of vee/double starting at the wing and blending out thru the tail. Riders will find the Dark Horse to be fast off the bottom and overflowing with power while stil maintaining precision control off the top.
