New Model: The Abalone

rory — Wed, 28 Dec 2011 03:10:36 +0000

‘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..

Length: 5’6″ – 6’6″

(*ride 2″-3″ shorter than your standard shortboard)

Width: 18 1/2″ – 19 3/4″

Thickness: 2 1/8″ – 2 1/2″

Tail: Swallow

Bottom: Single to Double Concave

Dave (180cm, 70kg) Rides: 5’11″ x 19″ x 2 1/4″

That time of year again…

Board Design Breakthrough..

If you have been to the factory lately, there’s a good chance you’ve seen the board below. We made it as a bit of an expirement earlier in the year and after months of having to hide it around the factory so as to not scare the kids, the board has found a new home.. not before we got a chance to test it!

We’re excited to announce the addition of one of the Mornington Peninsula top girl surfers, Tabby Vockler, to the team! Tabby’s surfing has improved out of sight over the last 12 months, so we hope now that with the help of custom Oke boards under her feet, she will continue the rise..
