The Channel Island G Skate surfboard is a hybrid design with a swallowtail created specifically to maintain buoyancy during maneuvers, adding curves at key points.
A surfboard that has a lot of speed thanks to its light single to double concave, low entry rocker, and forward wide point. Shortboard rails provide all the precision and control you could want.
You can ride your G Skate as a 2 + 1 or Thruster, giving this model a dual purpose.
EPS Epoxy Spine-Tek Construction:
The Spine-Tek construction is the result of the collaboration with Shapers Australia. SPINE-TEK is a precision engineered stringer spine utilizing a unique composition of fiberglass and resin. SPINE-TEK is based on the principles of elastic energy, to flex under pressure and then return the surfboard back to its natural rocker, providing surfboards with a more lively and responsive feel.
Performance through innovation, SPINE-TEK® is a world’s first with its unique fiber-based composition, delivers optimal flex based performance through the principles of elastic & kinetic energy. Through this process the surfboard loads up on energy and then releases, generating additional drive, speed, power & flow.
Weighing a mere ¼ of a pound and installed in the surfboard deck, SPINE-TEK replaces the traditional heavier timber stringers and is virtually break free.
