Back in 1998 I began building these low-rockered javelins to compete in summer paddleboard races on Oahu, and even used one to cross the Kaiwi Channel in 2001. What makes this design unique is that it is not only very competitive in either the surfboard class or stock class paddleboard races, but it also handles very nicely in thick, slopey offshore reef breaks. The design can be scaled up or down on to accommodate any ratio of surf vs. paddle. This is an escape pod – it gets you away from crowds and lets you thoroughly enjoy waves that no one else wants. And you will get your pects back…..\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eActive ingredients:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNarrow, parallel rails for the utmost speed and straight-down arm propulsion.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConvex bottom for the optimum in displacement hull efficiency.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChine\/bevel along bottom of rail.
