Since we regularly had customers who found it hard to chose between the Wave V5 and the Haka, over the last years we developed the Serum.
In the first place aimed at better riders who are looking for a board that works well in higher wind side to on shore conditions. The shape is a bit of a mix with a similar outline to the Wave V5 with the rocker line and strap positions of the Haka combined with a fairly deep double concave. The double concave is not a linear concave but has the deepest point a little more towards the rail. This gives less of a sharp “keel” in the middle which would turn less good and gives more grip on the rail:
The Serum combines the planing and speed of the Haka with the grip of the Wave V5. And the Serum has more control at speed and the deep double concave provides better shock absorbing properties in chop and the rail grip as comparable to the V5. As one feed back said: It feels like you are riding on air cushions.
With the narrower tail and outline, it is a little more tecnical than the Haka to get going but still very close. For float n ride conditions the Wave V5 is still the best choice.
We do not have the full range ready yet nor a specific graphics but it can be ordered as a custom board with custom graphics.
