Surf Devil'S Tongue WCKF
The easy to progress shortboard.
Programme
Modern Egg : des planches qui boostent votre niveau et survolent le spot.
Présentation
Quite a lot of surface, an early take off, a magical acceleration, this is the shape to progress without the hassle of a big board.
Thin, elegant with its round point nose, the Devil’s Tongue gives you just the right amount of ease without degrading the performance you need. Its nose offers lift but does not catch rails in the turns. Its tail is punchy but fits perfectly in the curves, moving smoothly from rail to rail with its V-shape under the rear foot.
The concave hull captures the flow of water to boost your acceleration. The rails are clearly those of a shortboard for a modern drive that you will enjoy throughout your progress.
The Devil’s Tongue is either your first shortboard to evolve; either the super fun and relaxed board for the summer and / or surfers looking for comfort and ease.
Definitely the all about fun board to put in all hands.

In a nutshell
The round point nose and large diamond tail maximize surface area to boost take-offs. This is clearly what will help you in your progress.
The rocker is pronounced to give maximum tolerance on the slope and boost handling. The highly crafted rails come from our dedicated high performance shapes, with plenty of rear foot grip, gliding super well above the water and the most forgiving nose possible.
The hull is also very worked with a big concave under the front foot which concentrates a maximum of the flows to direct them towards the fins and the tail. Both acceleration and handling / control ratio are optimal. Everything you need for an evolutionary board with high performance.
- Rocker: Modern to combine speed and carving.
- Rails: hard at the tail and round in the nose for a high-performance feeling.
- Volume: without excess to keep the performance at a good level.
- Outline: large general surface, tail support, compact and soft nose. The Board carries and flies on the water.

- Deck: flat for control, domed near the rails for maneuverability.

How to properly glue your pads?
The question of the pad often comes down to an aesthetic choice for the look of your board. But what seems like luxury to non-pros is actually a huge help.
If surfing is the art of placement then you need to put your feet properly on the board. And what better than a touch marker to know, ok, I’m at the sweet spot for this turn.?
Sticking good pads is therefore essential. They will signal to your feet whether they are in the perfect position or not.
You still have to stick them properly, and some get very creative…
