The HJM

Developed with eco board ambassador and local South Bay stand out Hunter Jones, this shape is currently my most popular model. It bridges the gap between a groveler shape (for small crappy waves) and a traditional high performance shortboard. The HJM is your ideal board for most day to day conditions. This shape works well in knee high to overhead surf, but really excels in mid sized waves. The HJM has a flatter deck to performance rails and a more full nose to make it more versatile. With a wide point pushed slightly forward it also features a wider tail block which is pulled in with a bump to rounded squash/rounded diamond tail. This helps break up the outline while creating key pivot points for better rail to rail transitions. A relaxed nose entry rocker with vee entry to single concave up under the chest transitioning into slight double concave through the Fins and vee off the tail equals increased lift and drive. A magical combination of bottom contours that have proven insanely successful over the past two years developing this shape. The more elliptical outline (wider nose and increased tail block) elongates the rail line in the water which also helps give this shred sled its lift off. Best ridden 1-2” shorter than you are tall or 2-4” shorter than your traditional shortboard.
