I had ridden fishes in the early 70’s. I wanted to revisit the glide and speed of a fish. The first Moby I built, 1999, was 7’10 22.5 3.1. Volume? No idea. No matter.\u2028\u2028It did the job in smaller surf and I rode it on some bigger days. I was quite happy with it. It made the cut on the 2 or 3 board quiver I kept in the back of my truck.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Rusty Preisendorfer\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTEC TECHNOLOGY \u003cimg\u003e\u003cimg\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTorq Epoxy Composite offers performance shapes in our vacuum epoxy layup. Vacuum epoxy uses a hand lay-up process, with a vacuum bonding process to bind the fiber to the board and remove excess resin. We have a few tricks in the vacuum process that keeps the resin content at a much better level than can usually be achieved.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat’s the benefits?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe can add extra layers of fiber while keeping the overall weight down – our shortboards have 18oz of fiber on the deck and 10oz on the base – approximately double of the fiber found on most boards of the same weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is lightweight AND durability. The weight is similar to a PU but we have a lot more fiber and more layers to reinforce the rail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do they surf?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe performance is very direct – TEC has an immediate response that is especially good in smaller or weaker waves. In larger waves the advantage is they are a lot less likely to break.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you’re used to PU they feel quick at first. After a few surfs, your old PU will feel very slow!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur team rider’s report their boards outlasting their previous boards by around 2-4 times longer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Torq Surfboards","offers":[{"title":"7' 0","offer_id":43446501736509,"sku":"TQ-TC-RU-MF-0700","price":800.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0003\/1902\/9309\/files\/rusty_mody_fish_1.jpg?v=1786392840","url":"https:\/\/www.surfstationstore.com\/products\/torq-x-rusty-mody-fish-tec-70-surfboard-futures","provider":"Surf Station Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
