The Kai’e’e is another interesting mix of performance characteristics. Here’s a board that not only excels in the surf but gives the rider an excellent glide that benefits coastal cruising or flat water paddling. It’s a difficult task to build a board that meets these two criteria. Here’s how it works. We start with a relatively flat entry that transitions into a subtle concave to provide stability and lift. As the water travels towards the tail, speed and stability are increased via a double barrel concave channeling water towards the fins. The swallow tail and the optional four fin set up offers the rider wanting to surf as much performance as he’s ready for while giving the extended paddler all the glide they’d want. Includes deck traction and fin set.
