I also think that with the shorter nature […]

The Sampler was developed with Dane Reynolds to be that step-down board you ride a little shorter and wider in smaller or weaker surf while not sacrificing performance. It fits in your quiver between something fishy like a High 5 or Pod Mod and your normal shortboard.Loosely based off the Dumpster Diver, it has flat, racy entry and center roc […]
