NOSE KICK
prevents the nose from diving when getting into waves and paddling in choppy water.
MONO TO DOUBLE CONCAVE
provides speed to catch the wave and then has sensitive rail-to-rail turning from the mid point.
THIN RAIL
to make turning easy and sensitive in the waves.
FLAT STANDING AREA
allows to have wider stance for extra stability in chop.
WIDE ROUNDED TAIL
improves stability when stepping on the board to turn. It also gives release out of turns.
V TAIL
for reactive pivot turning on the tail.
FIN SET UP
Thruster fin set up provides comfortable straight line tracking on flat and gives drive and control in surf
(Pocket Rocket allows both thruster and quad set up. Quad fin set up uses 4 side fins and gives fast acceleration and instant down the line speed as it does not have drag from the larger centre fin.)

BOARD REVIEWS
10′ WHOPPER REVIEW
“The Whopper is a board that you can lend to mates, paddle with the dog or just cruise with the wife. However, if you are seeking some wave action the whopper has plenty of performance, especially if the conditions are less than ideal.” – Marco Gribi
9’5” WHOPPER REVIEW
“The 9’5 Whopper Jnr is similar in litres to the 10’0 however the double concave allows easier rail transitions and if you have time to get back on the tail it opens up with a good burst of speed.” – Marco Gribi
