Mini Ghost - Squash

The Mini Ghost is available in a Round Tail or Squash Tail, however this models dimensions differentiate their total amount of foam (volume).

The Mini Ghost came to be as a result of working with Koa Smith to build a rippable short, chunky, fun version of one of his favorites, the Ghost. Koa loves riding tiny boards for the smaller days on the North Shore, but we needed to pack more volume into them to make them functional and give them paddle power and stability.

We shrunk Koas 5'9 Ghost down to a 5'5 and to give it more float we widened it up a touch, flattened out the deck and made the rails thicker and more boxy. We also added a modern beak nose to keep even more foam under the chest-area and up into the nose.

We made a few small changes to the rocker and it comes in either a round tail, or a wider bump squash to make the board very fun in smaller, weaker waves. Its made for high performance ripping, but is also great for less skilled surfers due to the added volume and forgiving ride.

Meant to be ridden 3-4 inches shorter, and around the same volume as your normal shortboard, the Mini Ghost will give your surfing a fresh feel and keep you happy in all kinds of conditions and types of waves.

Volume guide:

Our volume guide can help you figure out a good estimated volume for you to base your next board off of.

Ability/weight/volume numbers are not exact, but can give you an idea of where to start. This chart is assuming volume for a basic performance board to be ridden in weak to good waves.

* Generally speaking, you would want to ADD volume for a board designed for smaller, weaker conditions. * You would also ADD volume for a step-up/gun board for use in even bigger, more powerful waves. * Added weight (thick wetsuit, booties, etc.) should be calculated into your weight. * You generally want to balance the added ease of paddling (more volume) with sensitivity and performance (less volume).
