DISCO HIPPY

The Disco Hippy represents a progressive evolution that traces back to our retro-inspired yet performance-oriented Bro Fish. After wanting more performance in the next model, we introduced the Disco Diamond which retained that nostalgic vibe with some modifications such as a diamond tail for a shorter rail line as well as slightly thinner rails for added sensitivity. The result was a board that felt more responsive, easier to turn, and exceptionally agile in the pocket. Now with the introduction of the Disco Hippy, we have once again elevated performance while preserving all the wave-catching prowess and sheer speed of its predecessors.

Inheriting the flow, glide, and stability from the fish-type outlines, the Disco Hippy also keeps the rockers and concaves from its ancestors, maintaining impressive speed and release from the tail. The wide nose is still great for paddling while removing the beak reduces swing weight and improves maneuverability. Tuned thinner rails combine harmoniously to provide precise feedback and unmatched responsiveness in the pocket. A hipped squash tail introduces a break point in the outline, resulting in tighter turns and added hold during maneuvers. All together we've enhanced the Disco Hippy making it great for small waves as well as a way to progress or push your performance limits in a shorter board.

Category: ALL-AROUND ALTS.

Rocker: Low entry to flat throughout for easy wave catching and speed

Rails: Medium slight down rail with hard tucked edges for sensitivity and hold

Sizing:

Compared to the Disco Diamond you'll ride the Disco Hippy in the same length with a little less volume for easier maneuvering and performance. Or compared to your good wave board go 3-5 inches shorter than your height for everyday surfing matching your volume at about 1.0 L more. Over your height for a cruisy feel with even easier wave catching and more glide. Comparing to pro model shortboards, ride it 6-8 inches shorter, 1-1/4" wider and slightly thicker (about 1.0 L extra volume). Custom dims are always available to match your needs or preferences.
