The result? The Ova – a mid-length surfboard that exceeds expectations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the ever-evolving world of surfing, the modern mid-length board needs to tick many boxes for the discerning surfer. Rest assured, the Ova does just that. It offers unparalleled paddle power to ensure a remarkable wave count in today's bustling lineups, coupled with smooth flow, glide, down-the-line speed, and, perhaps most crucially, the ability to execute turns from the board's midpoint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe meticulously crafted design features include a hull entry that transitions into a single and then double concave, along with vee through the tail. This configuration facilitates early wave entry and rapid acceleration. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 50\/50 rails, resembling a Flatracker setup, extend from the nose and seamlessly blend into a sharper edge midway through the board. This unique design allows for agile turning without the need to be directly over the fins. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Ova feels solid, striking the perfect balance between weight and stability. With a 6\/4oz deck glassing, it not only performs exceptionally but also promises durability over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo unlock the full potential of the Ova mid-length, pair it with a 7\" single fin and the outer fins from a medium thruster set.

'Thunderbolt Black' uses a Fused Cell EPS Foam Blank which incorporates a Carbon Fibre Multi-Component Flex Control System which replaces a traditional wooden stringer which along with the Carbon Fibre\/Fibreglass lamination delivers a familiar flex which will remain for the extended lifespan of these durable boards. Thunderbolt Black uses a 6oz + 2oz Carbon Fibre\/Fibreglass deck lamination with the same on the bottom. The Fused Cell EPS Foam Blank is wrapped in a Core Shield PVC Shell which affords flexible protection to the EPS core.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExperience the excellence of Thunderbolt Technology surfboards, meticulously handcrafted to the highest standard.
