Ben\u2019s futuristic outline packs a ton of board into a short package. The resulting increase in volume gives the Wrecking Ball extra float for faster paddling and a feeling of \u201cunsinkableness\u201d even the meanest of flat spots can\u2019t sink. Updated with high-performance bottom contours by Ben\u2019s son Duke, the wrecking ball features a transitional bottom that fades from a rolled nose to a single concave in the middle of the board to a double concave under the fins and finishes with a vee out the tail. <strong>Wrecking Ball fin setup<\/strong> To make the most of the Wrecking Ball\u2019s down-the-line drive and allow riders to harness control of the extra speed this board generates, we\u2019ve opted for a quad fin setup. The result is a high-performance super groveler that blends classic design, experimental innovation, and modern sensibilities into a surfboard that drives down the line with unparalleled speed and bashes through sections without remorse.
