Designed as a shorter and more modern/high performance take on the keel fin fish, it has all the grooviness of the throwbacks with none of the weird oldness. It’s young, rad, and classy all at the same time. Crazy fast down the line, lots of lift, smooth and tight through carves, and progressive in the pocket. It’s versatile: it can be surfed assertively off the tail, or with light feet for those that love airs.
2016 marks the introduction of the Fling//GT. Built on the legacy of one of our most popular and innovative designs, the GT version is a quad only and features a slightly updated outline including subtle increases in nose and tail rocker for added performance in critical sections and a mild hip above the fins with a split diamond tail for extra pivot and traction. The Fling//GT gives versatility and performance everywhere you need it.

“The Fling GT was actually quite loose but in saying that you could get pretty funky on the wave and it would hold.”
“The really low rocker really helped getting you through the dead sections and made surfing it a breeze. The tail patch definitely strengthened the tail and helped with the durability of the board.”
“I think it would be pretty easy to transition from a bigger board onto something like this. Being so short I found it really fit into the pocket of the wave really well and you could throw it around and get jazzy on it and have a lot of fun. ”
