Question

What's THE perfect surfboard to go fast as h**l on a wave? and why?

Answer 1

A thick and wide fish. Perfect to cruise through the flat sections. They are just like longboards but more high performance. Now they are even making quad (4 fin) fishes.

Answer 2

If you want to go super fast and that's all, go for anything with almost no rocker, and all flat planing surfaces.  Twinnies and quad fish are perfect for this as they just fly due to the flat bottom.

A regular thruster's middle fin creates drag, and these boards are usually heavily rockered compared to twinnies and quads.

Basically, the flatter the board, the faster it will go.  It's just harder to turn a board with minimal rocker.

Answer 3

Usually speed has a lot to do with the board's fins and how they are set up.  Most three-finned thrusters are fast because of the boards design and thiness.  But a quad-fin board will provide you the speed your looking for..

Answer 4

a flat board with barrely no rocker

Answer 5

quad fish but becareful they don't turn as well as a regular shortboard would
