McTavish Surfboards - Eightball 8'1" Supercharged Fun Longboard A revved-up longboard, the EIGHTBALL is a reduced Fireball, supplying great paddling, easy speed and turning, and fast trimming, and even a sneaky noseride here and there. You need to treat the EIGHTBALL like a longboard, that is, walking forward, gaining a world of glide and trim that are the trademarks of longboards. Just covering acres of water easily. But it's reduced length means you can zap it, whack it, and punch the lip in a series of linked turns if you wish, something that 9 foot boards just find hard to do. The EIGHTBALL: revved-up longboarding at it's best! TECHNICALS: Exclusive 3-stage rocker for safe drops and fast acceleration. Tri-fins mounted well forward for looseness. Nose concave for early entry and aids noseriding support. Forward bevels for no-catch on re-entries, plus smooth trimming. Double concaves in tail for acceleration. Rails slightly enlarged short-board style, with edge in tail for release Suggested Rider weight is around 165 lbs (give or take 10 lbs) Height:8'1" Width: 22" Thickness: 2 7/8"
