This lift-focused egg came from a request in 2017 for something fun and approachable for the beach breaks of Japan - softer faces with playful sections and average size in general, something compact that scoots with minimal input from the rider. The Cheet has a really sweet and subtle outline with its widepoint slightly ahead of center. The bottom is focused on maximizing lift with no neutral or unused space; These stay on top of the water with little pumping and draw out really smooth round lines in a variety of waves. Being a more compact egg, the goal was to pack a punch in every square inch of the bottom and match that with a broad flat deck that makes a really stable and predictable platform. The rails are low and with a slight egginess to them, not too sharp or penetrating. The bottom shape is a single entry which transitions into a triple then quadruple concave - the outermost ‘rail’ concaves taper off just ahead of the side fins with little lump of spiral vee under your back foot for roll.

Fin recommendation: 6.5-7" Smith Parrish narrow base or Bonzer center fin with 3.25" - 3.5" side bites from True Ames Fins.
