GAMMA (HELIUM)

5’10” x 19 1/2″ x 2 9/16″
Volume: 30 Litres
Shaper: Kelly Slater

The Gamma is Kelly’s 2017 utility shortboard. His interest in CAD board design, modifying, testing and retesting has lead to the development of an incredible all around board. A single concave bottom and slight vee behind the back fin this board is extremely fast and drivey with quick rail to rail transitions. It has a medium rocker and a medium to slightly pinched rail, with a distinct hip tighter turning radius. “Helium’ tech combines a new composite with redesigned parabolic Balsa and Paulownia wood rails. The result is a 15% weight reduction over FST, a slightly faster flex and rebound characteristic, as well as a higher breakpoint.

5’6″ X 19 3/8″ X 2 7/16″
Volume: 29.4 Litres
Fins: 5 Fin Setup – Tri/Quad
Shaper: Daniel Thomson

The Omni takes modern functional aesthetics to new places with a clean and minimalistic meeting of Kelly’s performance round tails and Tomo’s modern planing hull designs. The Omni will revel in smaller waves up to six feet with smooth and extremely radical performance capability.

SCI- FI (LFT)

5’8″ X 19″ X 2 7/16″
Volume: 27.7 Litres

The Sci-Fi was voted SIMA board of the year for 2016 and is a mash up of classic curves and modern rocker served with a Futuristic twist of fluid dynamic principles likely found in the design archives of Bruce Wayne. Expect seemingly unnatural acceleration, instantaneous response and an all around level performance that can only be described as Electric. The Sci-Fi is a high performance all-rounder with impressive range (1-8ft ) with usability for intermediate to advanced surfers. Five-fin option.
