- DETAILS: 48” length; 2” Nose Rocker; 7/8” Tail Rocker; average board weight is 3-4 lbs; Rider Weight Limit – up to 200 lbs. Height - 5' 2" & up. Professionally installed traction pad included. 20” arch bar optional.
- FEATURES: MADE IN THE USA. Polished deck, ultra-glide bottom. Perfect sweet spot for long rides and fast motion. The right amount of rocker to avoid getting caught in the lip of the wave, yet not slow you down. Slapfish traction is a closed cell, fully sealed EVA grip secured with 3M waterproof adhesive.
- DURABILITY: Handcrafted with precision. This Slapfish board is fiberglass. Carbon reinforced at the nose and tail. Double reinforced at the rails. The Poly PVC foam core is supremely light weight, structurally dense, impact/fracture rated beyond the board weight limit and is waterproof. This is NOT a EPS (styrofoam) core which will gas out and delaminate over time. No fear of delamination or separation – ever.
- PERFORMANCE: Sand sliding and wave riding from beginner to experienced. Consciously tapered for balance and support of varied stances. Unlimited skim potential! Light weight. Floaty enough to support a wide range of riders. Performs in all wave conditions from mush to surging swell. Long liners, smooth wave wraps, 360 spins and more.
- OFFERINGS: First quality boards, and on occasion, factory blems. A blemished board has a minor cosmetic imperfection or a repaired factory flaw.
The Slapfish brand proudly makes all its Skimboards in the USA – with affordability, durability, and optimality in mind for all their potential customers. The Slapfish 48 is perfect for older beginner to experienced riders up to 180 lbs in weight and meet the height limit of 1-2” above or below their sternum. The Slapfish also offers a 1” nose rocker with a ¼” tail rocker perfect to provide optimum skimming conditions on the surface of the water and sand while also avoiding getting caught within the lip of the wave and not loose speed. A carbon reinforced nose and tail combined with double reinforced rails provide added protection on top of our fiberglass composite adding a crucial stiffness to the board for providing durability for many rides to come. Each Slapfish includes the application and purchase of a Slapfish tail pad made from EVA foam with a 3M waterproof adhesive that stays stuck after hours on the water.
