tldr; Volume-shifted powder surfer. Short, wide, and floaty. Pure pow fun but terrible on hardpack. Quiver board for deep days only.

β€œSuch a shame.. I have the [22/23 version](https://www.behance.net/gallery/142439021/The-Greats-Uninc) of this board. That season they also had a different graphic for each size from an artist named JP Kalonji . It’s crazy how they went from that to this… Yes posted a lot of AI generated ads when they merged with Lobster. Feels like both brands were better on their own before the merge… at least for the graphics/ branding”
