Sharing certain design features with the Spitfire, the Short Mac provides a performance shape with the added bonus of stability and ease of use with its squared-off nose.
The squared-off nose shape allows for a straighter outline forward to generate glide and stability. You’ll feel comfortable paddling for a wave and running down the line, as the board accelerates very easily.
Outline curve in-between the feet will let you maneuver through sections with ease and hit the lip at will. The Short Mac doesn’t need powerful waves to throw big turns.
Progressive rocker with a flatter mid-section and single concave in the front creates speed. A more pronounced curve when you step back, combined with a double concave out through the tail equates to response and release.
Ultimately, the Short Mac is a high-performance board on which you won’t have to reduce ySMIK’s surf time because of balance fatigue. It’s perfect for the entry-level shortboard rider or the more experienced but larger fella.
Construction / Technology
SMIK’S production lay-up uses the highest grade materials to ensure light weights and incredible durability while providing the optimum flex and reflex response.
CNC-cut EPS cores for maximum precision and accuracy
Full 5mm high-density PVC sandwich wrap hand laminated & vacuum-bagged for high quality and durability
Biaxial carbon rail frame to stiffen the board
Australian Pine wood standing area to prevent heel dents
Nose and tail reinforced against impact damage with additional biaxial carbon
The combination of the full PVC sandwich, pine wood and biaxial carbon in the right places ensures ySMIK’s SMIK board will still be feeling solid well into the future.
