Hesitant to try squeezing longboard-esque dimensions into a shortboard length & outline, when a veteran surfer friend insisted I give it a shot, who was I to refuse? If we’re gonna suggest you “Ride Anything,” we better be able to shape anything. After lots of curve blending, foiling, and re-tweaking, the Fountain of Youth (FOY) was born. The FOY combines a bloated outline, double hips for a sharp taper behind the fins, light single to double concave with V out the back. Despite up to 23” of width and 3” of thickness, even the skeptics have found this wave catching machine surprisingly loose and maneuverable.
Order your FOY about 3 ft shorter with similar width/thickness to your standard longboard and expect to ride forever young!
