Phoenix Flight EPS
Overview
The Phoenix -- Flight is the refined evolution of our best-selling small-wave model, built to make weak surf faster, sharper, and more dynamic. Keeping the original Phoenix DNA---easy paddle-in, instant speed, playful feel---we've reworked the outline, rocker, and concaves to push its performance further. With a sleeker nose, a narrowed tail, and a slightly thinner overall profile, the Flight version transitions quicker, turns tighter, and carries more control when the waves step up from knee-high runners to punchier, chest-high sections. Ride it as a thruster, quad, or even a twin---this board is designed to adapt to the day's conditions and your own style.

How it surfs: The Phoenix -- Flight is fast, reactive, and incredibly fun. It paddles easily thanks to the fuller front end, but once you're on your feet, the refined tail and thinner profile give it the feel of a true performance shortboard. It accelerates instantly in weak surf, holds speed through slow sections, and stays lively when the waves tighten up. As a quad it becomes even faster and looser; as a thruster it adds drive and control; as a twin-plus-trailer it's playful and skatey. Whether the waves are 1ft and soft or pushing toward head high, the Flight keeps its spark, carries momentum, and gives you the confidence to push turns without bogging.
Quiver: The Phoenix - Flight is an evolved take on our best-selling small-wave model, designed to push your surfing further. It amps up responsiveness through refined design features from the original Phoenix, released in early 2020. With a sleeker, pulled-in tail and a thinner profile, this board enhances maneuverability, allowing for tighter, more controlled turns. The reduced concave under the front foot boosts speed, gliding through flat sections with ease and giving you extra drive in weaker surf. We've also added more lift and refinement to the nose outline, providing quicker transitions, smoother paddling, and sharper precision when carving. The Phoenix - Flight is built to perform in anything from playful small waves to head-high surf, giving you versatility to thrive in varying conditions. With a tri-quad fin configuration, you can ride it as a thruster, quad, or even a twin, dialling in the perfect setup for your style and the day's conditions. If you're looking for a board that's faster, more dynamic, and effortlessly sharp, the Phoenix - Flight is ready to rip into summer conditions!
