The Fury combines the unique flow of a twin and the dynamic drive of channels. An ultra-maneuverable, fast and precise board, as suitable for summer conditions as for fast, tubular waves.
The Fury is very close to a round tail shortboard, but with more glide and incredible freedom in the drive. The magic of this shape lies in its glide. It generates a lot of speed while remaining ultra maneuverable. Really stylish, with a very strong ability to tighten turns, it's the board that makes you love every wave.
A shortboarder will choose it to score in the summer waves, but it will surely become his main board. At first amused by its fun and skaty feel, we are immediately surprised by its performance, because on this shape, everything is designed to go fast and draw beautiful lines.
The Fury can surf all types of waves.
On short waves, immediate acceleration is its biggest asset: a few meters of section are enough to give it all the necessary speed. Hitting the lip with energy becomes super simple.
On long waves, the Fury allows you to carve endlessly. On this board you know you have the speed, that you can turn extremely short, so you can just hold back or send it.
This alternative shape will help you progress because the Fury completely redefines the notion of shortboard, thanks to its natural speed, but also thanks to perfect freedom in trajectories.
La portion arrière de l’outline est arrondie pour maximiser la maniabilité. Le nose reste point mais garde un peu de largeur aux épaules pour la rame et les relances. Le maître bau est central pour un équilibre parfait. La conduite est instinctive et instantanée, c’est ce qui permet d’envoyer des manœuvres sur des sections improbables, mais surtout de se dire que chaque vague prise est parfaitement exploitée.
La présence des channels s’impose sur ce twin rapide pour offrir l’accroche indispensable à un haut niveau de performances. Ils donnent plus de stabilité à haute vitesse. On a ce toucher et cette glisse inimitable du twin, un comportement loose et rapide, mais avec du drive et du contrôle en plus dès qu’on met la board en pression dans les courbes. La Fury ne se limite donc pas aux petites conditions, les sections rapides et les vagues tubulaires font partie de son terrain de jeu.
Les quatre channels canalisent l’eau en l’extrayant de la carène. Ils ont pour rôle de diriger et d’accélérer la sortie d’eau sur la carène. Diriger l’eau crée un appui et donc un maintien de trajectoire. Pourtant l’eau n’est pas comprimée comme elle le serait dans un single concave. Au contraire, elle est relâchée plus facilement pour gagner en vitesse naturelle. Ces channels longs ont un effet prononcé qui augmente la glisse, le contrôle et la stabilité à haute vitesse.
On récupère du pivot et on réduit le rayon de courbe grâce au round tail, contrairement à un fish tail plus large. L’approche est forcément plus radicale que celle d’un fish twin. On enroule autour de ce round tail qui favorise un rail to rail à la fois progressif et doux.
Le fait de combiner deux twin profonds et les channels permet de garder cette vitesse caractéristique, mais sans jamais perdre en contrôle, et ce, quelle que soit la puissance des appuis.
L’association twin fins - channels accentue la vitesse. On obtient également plus de contrôle que sur un simple twin. Sur le rail, les channels donnent une accroche supplémentaire non négligeable pour passer les sections rapides, pousser les carves et tenir les highlines.
Dans ce shape, tout est fait pour aller vite, et surtout pour que cela ne s’arrête jamais !
Technical sheet
Buying guide
The Fury is primarily a board for experienced shortboarders looking for more glide and speed in imperfect conditions.
It will also be suitable for an intermediate level surfer as the natural speed of this shape will help them progress in their maneuvers. The flow of the twin provides a unique feeling, a very enjoyable mix of glide and speed.
Unless you live on a perfect point break with powerful waves on a daily basis, you will sooner or later need to insert a shape into your quiver that allows you to have fun in small or below average waves. But not everyone is systematically attracted to a fish.
For this shape, we will instinctively favor sloppy conditions, summer waves, short swells, because this is where the Fury will make the difference. Everything becomes easy because you constantly have speed on demand for carves and top turns. But its scope remains vast, and we will appreciate its glide as much as the unique style of surfing it provides.
Sizing: From hip high to head high waves and above.
Power: its playing field is immense but it delivers all its potential in hollow waves.
Appearance: like many twins, it’s better in smooth waves.
We offer different technologies on certain shapes to meet the program, conditions, and sometimes individual habits.
In the case of a PU board, there will be a different behavior from an EPS board of the same shape and weight. It’s the weight distribution in the board that generates a big difference in feeling. For two blanks with the same shape, one in PU and the other in EPS, the EPS blank will be lighter, as EPS foam is less dense.
In the case of a PU board, it’s the blank that provides solidity and concentrates weight in its core. The board thus has a very “central” inertia. This makes for a very smooth board, which forgives errors but is less dynamic. The PU blank will be heavier than the EPS blank.
In the case of an Epoxy board, the blank is very light, and solidity comes from the skins. So the inertia is “peripheral,” meaning the weight of the board is on the outside, making it more mobile, agile, and dynamic.
The best comparison to explain these differences would be to say that the inertia of PU naturally gives a single fin feeling (very centered, smooth and soft pressure), while EPS gives a thruster or even quad feeling (very external support, immediate rail to rail, maximum nervousness).
EPS is generally preferred for boards that need dynamism, usually in small to medium conditions, schematically in waves where speed generation is required. EPS is therefore preferred on shapes where reactivity is sought, as it’s easier to turn quickly, perfect for waves that require rapid transitions. For very good surfers, this further enhances the dynamism of their surfing. For progressing surfers, EPS adds this little boost of dynamism as the board can gain speed much more easily, an important point considering that in surfing, speed is the key to everything. PU is favored for high-performance shortboards, for boards where controlling speed is the main objective.
Different feelings : Surfers accustomed to PU will generally say that “EPS bounces and feels stiff.” While surfers used to EPS will say that “PU feels soft, lacks response, and struggles to accelerate.” These feelings often stem from habits, sometimes generalities, and often prejudices. Don’t hesitate to deviate from conventional wisdom to make your choice.
The Fury allows us to play with the size and shape of the twins. This has an important influence on the behavior of the board. To increase the pivot, we will for example favor relatively straight fins with little rake. On the contrary, increasing the rake or base length will improve drive and control in turns and carves, but by lengthening the turning radius. By increasing the surface area of the fins we gain control but at the expense of speed and vice versa. Note that the presence of channels makes it possible to reduce the size of the fins without losing control.
Fury or fish?
A fish will have dimensions that are more generous, with a length/volume ratio that is both more compact and more imposing. The Fury's dimensions, although slightly bigger, ultimately remain quite close to a traditional shortboard. If you are attracted by very compact shapes with as much volume as possible in a minimum length, you will like the Fork or the Pie. The Fury also has a clearly superior ability to pivot than a shape mounted with keels (because of their wider base).
Fury or shortboard?
To surf a performance shortboard full time, you generally have to enjoy good conditions, be very technical, or agree to catch only 3 decent waves per session... The Fury is halfway between a shortboard and a groveler, it will have this capacity to turn average sessions into good sessions, since it's all about speed. The Fury is therefore often used as a complement to a shortboard, and usually turns out to take up a lot of sessions.

More infos
The question of the pad often boils down to an aesthetic choice to style your board. But what may seem like a simple accessory to non-pros is actually a valuable aid. If surfing is "the art of positioning," then placing your feet correctly on the board is essential. And what better than a tactile reference to tell you, "Okay, I’m in the sweet spot for this turn"?
Gluing quality pads is therefore essential. They tell your feet whether they are properly positioned or not. However, you need to apply them correctly, and that’s where things can go wrong.
