Wainman Hawaii introduces their premier twin-tip board: the Blunt. It was designed to be crazy-light yet strong with very little drag and massive pop. Tested in the brutal waters of Maui, the Blunt’s thin profile cuts through chop like a razor and absorbs bumps like a shock. Its smooth, skatey feel can also be enjoyed finless, which is Lou Wainman’s favorite setup. The Blunt comes with light and cushy pads that absorb the impact but don’t let the rider “dive” into the foot straps when landing with power and speed. If this board meets the standards of Wainman himself, it should certainly meet yours.
