Smik Hipster Twin Pin Tail SUP.

Being added alongside the swallow tail version of the Hipster twin is the twin pin version . It's a smalll subtle difference that actually makes quite a large difference in feel. But couldn't replace the swallow tail for the for the fact that nothing would match the swallow tails combination of speed and acceleration. ​

What it does provide however is:

• The ability to drive more vertically up the face.
• Smoother rail to rail transition.
• Ability to pivot turn more vertically off the top. Rolling on the curves off the pin int he tail.
• Sits in the hollower part of wave a little better, a la when it's barrelling.
• Fabric play rails.

Varying graphics that make it impossible to chip the rails with the paddle, eliminating the need for rail tape.

High performance through a broad range of conditions. Generation of speed when marginal where the more you push the more you get out of it. The ability to project vertically whilst drawing the smoothest of lines. Graphic look is a classic understated look to appeal to a broad spectrum of tastes.

Smik Hipster Twin Pin Longboard SUP.

The Hipster Longboard is by design a very different board to the Style Lord. Evolving from the much loved Hipster Twin, the bottom contours and outline were stretched into the longboard variant. The single concave runs from the nose all the way through the board which feeds into a double concave towards to the tail with a slight Vee running out the tail. This produces a lot of speed and lift when you initiate a rail, with the double concave softening the single concave between the feet through chop, accelerating water flow and exhausting water out through the tail. With the line drive which comes from a longer board, customers have exclaimed they’ve made It around sections they would have never made before. When you step back to the tail, put the board on rail and start to drive, is where this is a longboard in a league of its own. Full speed accelerating shortboard turns built into a longboard. The carving sensation is also enhanced with super fine sensitive rails blocking out through the tail. Nose riding is unaffected with the loss of the larger single fin, with the larger side fins being ample to keep you tacking whilst "up the front". Hipster Twin Longboard Edition: Short board performance turns infused into a longboard.

The Style Lord is a performance longboard shape designed for smooth carves, a timeless soul arch or a little walk up the nose. I' also very agile when stepping back onto the tail, for a board that size. Shape Nose rocker single concave with new bevelled rails make it even more of a nose riding delight.

Fine and rounded rails provide response without bogging. The area forward has also been increased to make for effortless nose riding. Outline curves are smooth resulting in the easy initiation of carves, with hip between the feet allowing the board to come around hard on rail.

The squash tail provides a squirty sensation from the straightening of the outline in the tail. Rolled V and double concaves through the middle allows mid board turning and accelleration while at the tail combines to produce tight driven turns. ​

These boards are at home in small powerless waves with good glide, but take them out in a bit of juice and they’ll be more than capable of holding a line in larger surf.
