CENTER STANCE
The Mako excels when ridden with a hip forward (powerful) style of riding, with equal weight on both feet. The Mako is designed to be ridden off it’s rails, as it relys on it’s profile and bottom shape/concave for traction, not it’s fins. It has a huge amount of lateral resistance because of this, yet it has minimal drag. It’s narrowness allows it to be ridden as aggressively toe side as heel side. When used as designed, riders exit turns as fast as they enter them.
SURE GRIP
4x grab areas are finished with a clear, sure-grip finish. It’s like skatedeck tape!
CONCAVE
You’ve never seen this much concave! Don’t spray the water... Funnel it! Pushing water back crushes the bumps and increases hold! Concave also eliminates the need for a large board width... avoiding large transitions from heel side to toe side.
