The Checkmate is a take-no-prisoners, no-holds-barred, capture-your-king kind of longboard, so get ready to surf at the top of your abilities.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDesigned by Wayne Rich to be quick off the bottom, nimble rail to rail, and powerful of the tail, the Checkmate is every bit a performance longboard. Fast wrapping turning in the pocket and hard down-the-line bottom turns are standard manoeuvres for this modern gal.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt the same time, a soulful outline meets a timeless bottom contour that rolls into a classic 60\/40 longboard rail, resulting in a board that noserides, trims, and glides as lovely as any traditional log on the market.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile we can’t divulge all the Checkmate’s secrets, we can share that a hard edge is snuck into the board’s tail to deliver a controlled drive when cranking tight turns and a lite concave in the nose blends through the front third of the board allowing for lift and acceleration when hangin’ the piggies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe suggest the Checkmate for all surfers looking to expand their repertoire of manoeuvres on a longboard. Originally designed for the Santa Barbara points, the Checkmate works best in long, drawn out walls head high and below but can be ridden up to a few feet overhead and at your local reef or beach break.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf you are an old-at-heart-dog looking to learn a few new tricks, the Checkmate is for you\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction - Tuflite Pro\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTuflite Pro is engineered for balanced performance and durability using an Omega glassing layup, HD PVC inserts, Carbon rails all in a molded technology.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUltralite Fused Core - Molded with inset\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eParallel Twin Stringer Design - 2x T stringers Biax glass length of deck.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOmega Molded Glassing - E Glass + Biax (Deck)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh Density Recess - Recessed High Density PVC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarbon Performance Rails - UD Carbon rail structure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDENT RESISTANCE - Stays fresher longer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSTRENGTH TO WEIGHT RATIO - Last Longer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFLEX \u0026amp; FLEX RESPONSE - Better board feel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBREAK STRENGTH - Less likely to become 2 or more pieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProfessional-level quality should be available to all surfers. Tuflite Professional is the result of 35 years of testing and multiple iterations of Surftech’s innovative moulded construction. An ultra light fused core is moulded for perfect replication of shape every time. The light core allows us to add extra protective layers and manipulate the flex of the board. The lay up consists of a high density deck and bottom layer inserted into a recess in the board, combined with unidirectional carbon rails plus multiple layers of e-glass and biaxial. The result is a drastic improvement in both break strength as well and impact resistance. The process of omega glassing, wrapping and overlapping the recess and rails of the board, is a feat of engineering allowing for added strength without adding weight. Tuflite Professional is the perfect blend of durability and engineered performance, built to elevate your surfing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFin(s) included:\u003c\/strong\u003e None.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout Wayne Rich\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWayne Rich is a world-renowned surfboard shaper who has been designing boards for over 40 years.
