First SUP model shaped/designed by theBoehneBros



Dan and Dave Boehne have been making some SUP surf protos for the last 6 months or so. Thinner, narrower, extremely light and meant to be ridden off the tail. Incorporating some of the Infinity short board theories, we have come to this new model the "blurr". This is as high performance as it gets...

Specs:
7'11" x 26.5" x 3 7/8" (this particular board is good up to 170lbs for an experienced paddler)

weight:
9 lbs (ya no shit)

Construction:
EPS w/ stringer, S-glass, Carbon patches + strip

Dave and Dan Boehne excited making some new performance SUP's
Some might claim "it's just like a shortboard"
and some actually are...
tail taken from the infinity 5F model applied to the blurr SUP
narrower tail adds bite and quick reaction, carbon keeps it stiff
narrow nose fits in tight
thinning out the tail after the wing acheives a thin responsive tail in the water and maintains the volume in the deck
