Dickie has ridden this board in knee high to over head trestles. The board makes smooth turns and trims nicely. Being 7’0″ the board paddles into waves early so you can get a jump on the wave and the crowd. The board is also a quality product. After several years of surfing from Mexico to Orange County the board is still in good shape.
It well known that Donald Takayama is not shaping surfboards anymore and has not for sometime. This board was shaped by Donald while he was still was doing time in the shaping room.

The Superwide is a wider, thicker more compact design for the surfer who wants maximum performance with maximum floatation and glide.
The Superwide is based on the Magic Model, designed primarily for the surfer who wants to maintain the floatation of a longer board, yet wants to go 6′ to 18′ shorter. The Superwide’s added width and thickness allows you to surf shorter without the loss of floatation. The same principal as the Compact Disc but on a larger scale.

This is our popular and versatile egg shape. Wide and glide like a long board, yet shorter and curvy to keep your arcs tight. Ride this one short if you want to get aggressive or add some length if you want to cruise. Go wierd and get your Wayne Lynch on! A must have in the quiver. Set up as a single, 2 + 1, or “bonzer”.
Typical dimension: 7’0″ 15 1/4″T 21 1/4″W 16 1/2″N 2 5/8″
Size range: 5’10″ – 8’0″
