New Model: The Abalone

By rory in : New Boards, News & Updates // Dec 28 2011

‘The Abalone’ is the latest model we have been fine tuning with the input of  Dave Parsons and a few other team riders. The lower nose kick and slightly wider nose outline  enables the board to generate a heap of speed while the thin, pulled in tail provides the perfect blend of hold and drive… ‘The Abalone’ is Dave’s number one board in all conditions up to 6ft..
