Een interessante evolutie...
Many brands and shapers are trying to bring down their boards' size to give them a better "shortboard" feel, but also make them more maneuverable and easier to transport!
The balance is hard to find between being able to do tight turns and keep a minimum of floatability, since we're not all skinny light riders.
Some brands keep working hard to keep looking for the perfect alchemy and it is the case with Infinity Surfboards and the "Mini Simmons" line, a few 7'2" by 28.5", developped by the Californian rider Dave Boehne, who's working hard to bring the Mini SUPs into the main stream.
Dave Boehne riding the Mini Simmons inspired Infinity Phoenix V2 Model. 7'2" x 28.5" x 4" x 95L x Twin Fin.
This was a beautiful day but the waves were pretty gutless. 1-2" with occasional 3' sets... You can see this board planes quite fast with little effort and whips around turns in flat, soft waves. The Phoenix makes average days into FUN days... Short, stable, fast, skatey ride...
