2009 Channel Islands “Whip” surfboard!
April 10, 2010
Looking for a new Board that has all the drive you ever could wish for? well now you’ve found it. The Channel Island “Whip”. The “Whip” is a great board for smaller waves, its fast and holds great in pockets. Some feedback on this board is you should be ridden 3-4 inches smaller than your shortboard, 1/4″ wider and the same thickness. This board is designed for everyday use by intermediate to expert surfers in knee to head high surf.
History on The “Whip”: In landlocked neighborhoods a man’s “whip” is his customized ride, his prized mode of transportation. During the Europe leg in 2009, Kelly’s “Whip” for less than perfect surf was his 5’9” x 18 5/8” x 2’5/16” – one inch shorter than what he won Snapper and Bells on in 2008. This is Kelly and Al’s re-worked version of the Flyer, with a few secret changes. This board is faster and more forgiving. If you’re looking for a board that excels when your shortboard seems to bog, this is the board for you.
