  • Hobie Specialist 9'8 Longboard Surfboard

    Size

    320596

    9'8" x 

    Elastic Fantastic! The Specialist is our spin on the progressive step-decks of the late sixties. This bendy water craft features a flat mid-section with a generous amount of curve in the nose and tail. A flatter mid-section allows the Specialist to rule as “Trim-King”, especially, in sloping or mushy conditions. Furthermore, the most prominent feature is an s-deck foil from nose-to-tail. At center, the Specialist is thicker than most Hobie offerings, but the nose and tail are foiled out nicely to create greater sensitivity on the nose and tail. An experienced rider will love the precise control.

    **This surfboard is too large to ship via LTL Freight. FTL Freight will be upwards of $500+ to ship. Please email support@surf-station.com if interested in a quote. May not be available for Alaska & Hawaii due to carrier limitations.**
