About the board..... There is nothing new about
the concept of fuller template boards. If you
go back to ten years or more you'll find plenty
of shorter boards that were around 22"
wide.
Eggs being wide boards are relatively easy
to paddle and better still they are quick to
plane . This means the board will perform to
it's full potential, even at low speeds (a major
advantage in small and weak surf).
Eggs also have lots of volumn, which means
you can create a lot speed in relatively flat
faced, weak surf. Eggs however tend to lack
control, particularly when the surf gets bigger
and more critical. To compensate for this the
tail block has two wingers that allow for a
narrow rounded tail and thus giving more control.
Most Suitable For...... Eggs would be a good
purchase for larger riders (particularly longboarders)
wanting to have shorter board in their quiver
(opposed to their longboard). It's also ideal
for someone wishing to add something different
to their quiver and make the most of poor summer
conditions.
