Airush Choptop Surfboard 2012

Choptop - Where Wave Meets Freestyle

5’3 - Combines the performance of a small wave surfboard with the throw around factor of a skimboard. Wide tail and flat rocker entry for incredible light wind performance for its size, with great high wind control due to the “over the board” rider geometry. The 5’3” features a concave deck for low center of drive improved strapless performance.

5’6 – The 5’6” is the perfect all round performer, the medium volume ensures great performance in a diverse range onshore to cross-onshore conditions. (This is shop pick by Brian, his favorite all around board!)

5’8 - For medium to light-wind and heavier rider, the 5’8” offers enough buoyancy for paddle surfing up to an advanced 85 kg rider in small surf (up to shoulder high). The snub nose outline keeps the volume forward allowing for maximum planning.

5’10 LW - This unique design pushes the envelope of extreme light-wind wave performance by allowing you to ride aggressively in the most marginal conditions. At the same time the wave engineered heritage ensures significant crossover surf potential.

Construction Options:

FLYTECH BIOFLEX
The Flytech Bioflex comprises of a hi-density foam sandwich top deck, for strength and lightweight in the standing area. The Bottom deck features the innovative new Bioflex bamboo sandwich. The unique bias orientation and bamboo combination ensures the most flex possible in a wood sandwich.

ACTIVE CARBON 
Airush releases it patent pending ACTIVE technology:

• As flexible as a PU board but made from high modulus carbon fiber, giving much more reflex and strength.
• The patented ACTIVE stringer does not interfere with the flex, but stops the board from breaking when the board is placed under abnormal load.
• 20% Lighter than a standard sandwich construction.

Target User

• Cross Onshore to Onshore Wave from beginner to pro.
• Riders looking for early planning and stable ride.

Compared to the Converse

• Shorter length, wide tail, Flatter rocker entry and slightly harder rail release edge improve flat water and onshore performance.
• Shorter length and grab rails increases throw around factor.

Rails

• Tucked surf rails based on a small to medium wave surf requirements.

Rocker

• Directional rocker with a flat entry, for early planning and stability at speed. Intermediate tail rocker for snap in wave conditions.

Bottom Shape

• Single concave to Spiral double concave bottom for early planning and soft ride in chop.

Outline

• Wave inspired outline with relatively far forward wide point for improved stability at speed. Due to the “over the board” geometry we have been able to increase the speed and stability without losing throw around factor.

Fins

• Lightweight, bombproof Hexcore AR-3 fins are combined with the revolutionary new Surfinz box, this new box system allows up to 18mm of forwards adjustability along with heavy duty under the skin installation. The Patented conic stainless steel screw ensures long term durability full FCS compatibility from box and fins.
• Standard configuration as Tri fin, with Quad fin compatibility. Recommended back set Airush AR-2.
