The 4x2 Model
The 4X2 Model:
Back about 10 years ago, professional surfer, Allen Sarlo and I started designing boards for his powerful surfing style using medium deep concave bottoms combined with double concaves inside that concave, resulting in a very high planing and super-hydrodynamical bottom design that worked extremely well for Allen's powerful style in both large and small wave in California and Hawaii. That model we named The Escalade, which proved to be the choice for larger and more powerful surfers in both large and small wave alike.
The 4x2 was an small wave offshoot of the Escalade into a fun hybrid-ish play toy for small wave air moves and gutless, mushy surf. It's mainly a wing-squash but works well as a wing swallow or roundtail. Mainly ordered as quad, it'll serve the range nicely of 2-3-4-5 finbox configurations.
The 4X2 Model:
5'4 ~ 6'10
While I think it’s helpful to have rider weight and dimensions: remember these are only a general guide. My team will work personally with all my customers and their specific needs:
