This model is an “eggy” shape that allows the rider to trim high on the wave in the middle of the board or race down the line on the tail. Your pick. The Egg is a great board for beginner to advanced riders.

Product Construction
Tuflite
Tuflite construction is a molded fused cell EPS core, wood veneer, high-quality E-glass, and Epoxy resin. This makes for a strong and light board that has optimal flex characteristics due to the natural wood fibers and EPS core. Tuflite construction utilizes a T-Stringer for added break strength, a lively flex, and power distribution from your front foot to the fin area.
