[ The Speed Egg ]
DESCRIPTION
The Speed Egg is a versatile and sublime design inspired by and
created and developed with legendary surf gypsy
Rob Yuen
from his lifetime of surfing the points, reefs, and beaches on
the Pacific Coast from Oregon to Baja. Rob's surfing history, his
diverse design experience, and his interaction with surfers up and
down the coast are the origins of this design. Long before the
current trend of mid length designs on offer in surf culture and in
the surf market, Rob connected with us to create the Natural Curves
Speed Egg. The Speed Egg is designed for knee high to overhead waves
and all conditions. The design features a relaxed speed box or an
extremely low continuous rocker and the classic Mike Diffenderfer
inspired Natural Curves convex bottom featuring tri plane entry and
wide point to rolled panel vee from wide point to tail. The outline
features a full nose and a classic round pin tail and has substantial
surface area for paddling, catching waves, and stability and control
riding waves. The primary fin set up for the Speed Egg is the classic
2 + 1, but it's also available as a thruster, quad, or twin fin.
These are the key features of this versatile design. The design's
simplicity is fundamental to it's sublime and effortless carve, trim
and glide performance. The Speed Egg is such a basic design it will
literally surf itself. The design is relevant for surfers of every
skill level. Expert surfers can enjoy surfing the Speed Egg in any
waves and conditions. Intermediate and novice surfers can turn, trim
and glide in the waves and conditions they surf. Beginner surfers can
accelerate their learning curve enjoying the Speed Egg's paddling,
stability, and control. This classic and versatile design combines
the thrills of mid length trim and glide and shortboard carves and
turns. As it's name implies, the Speed Egg is a very fast surfboard.
