La F1 stub est en quelque sorte un shortboard high-performance très conservateur. Le rocker n’est pas aussi radical que celui que l’on peut retrouver sur les shapes typiques des pointbreaks de la Goldie; L’influence de Trestles est plus forte ici que celle de Snapper. Le rocker est donc moins prononcé et le concave moins profond. Une planche très neutre. La plupart des bons résultats de Julian (Wilson) ont été réalisés sur des F1 stub. Ce design possède un léger hip au niveau du tail block, mais nous avons commandé quelques planches à Matt Biolos avec un outline plus continu dans cette zone pour limiter les surprises de comportement.
Il existe de nombreuses variantes au niveau du design des planches ou des dérives, afin d’ajouter un petit boost de sensation très agréable pour de nombreux surfeurs. Mais ne vous y méprenez pas, les meilleurs surfeurs veulent juste une board solide, toutes ces additions ne sont que distractions pour eux! Marketing??? Trust Absolute Surf.
Hodei surfing The Mix, shaped by Mikel Agote from Pukas Surf on Vimeo.
Nous avons surfé la mix de Migel Agote et nous l’adorons. Cette board convient parfaitement à nos vagues bretonnes, quand les conditions sont petites ou molles. C’est un shape rapide qui tourne très court, tout en conservant une bonne conduite. Pas mal tout ça?
THE MIX is a mix. Obvious, right? It all came because of those lazy summer days were waves don’t push. We questioned ourselves; how could we get a fast surfboard for slower waves, but still make it fun for tight turns? Mikel Agote came along with the answer and Hodei surfed it.

Encore un shape parfait pour nos vagues?
The Game is the latest model developed by Pukas. Designed and shaped by Johnny Cabianca, tested by Gabriel Medina and developed at Olatu, the official Pukas Factory, this board is meant to be ridden when waves are slow. With a flat rocker and a wider outline, this board should be about 4 inches shorter than your normal board and should have 15% more litres than your high performance weapon.
The DFK (Da Freak Kid) is a surfboard for the likes of Gabriel Medina. The name came out from Martin Potter, former World Champ, as he was webcasting the World King of The Groms in Hossegor, France. As Martin Potter was calling Gabriel by the nickname “The Freak Kid” (Gabriel scored two 10s in the final), the young brazilian was writing history by winning the World KOTG, and solidifying his status with a win at the ISA World Juniors. The DFK was born during that period; compared to the prototype, it was a board with deeper concaves, some extra volume at key points and a touch on the fin placements.
The DFK, with its thin nose and tail, has been the winner pick for Gabriel’s technical surfing. Not having in consideration the type of foam in use and other varieties, having a thinner tail makes it more sensitive and Gabriel and the surfers getting to feel this characteristic use it for their benefit.
Its single concaves crosses the board from nose to tail, with a slow water entry at the beginning until the lower-half of the board, were the concave gets deeper. The concave gives the board a catamaran-like effect that will work for surfing displayed with speed. So either for the good/technical surfer who doesn’t let the board die when the wave doesn’t help or for the mid-skilled surfer scoring on a stronger wave that provides the speed needed, the DFK will perform.
Gabriel has been able to maximize his surfing potential to the maximum. If you are looking to the get the best out of your surfing skills, give this board a try. Now.
Bien nommée, la Bean possède un template de nose ainsi q’une largeur centrale plus large, qui se combinent avec un outline de tail typique de shortboard.
Le shape unique de la Bean, avec son profil de rocker relaxe, procure une rame facile, une accélération efficace lors de l’entrée en vague et du flow dans le surf mushy, tout en délivrant un pivot exceptionnel ainsi que du contrôle dans les sections plus creuses.
