HB Bodyboards Shred-S Polypro Core - 2021/22 Model

HB's philosophy for designing bodyboards is simple: they take only the finest grade materials, integrate them with team tested templates, and incorporate the latest in construction technologies to create a line of high performance wave riding craft worthy of the HB name. HB have lived by these three key principles for the past 25 years and this year continues the tradition.

FEATURES

CORE: KINETIC CORE – 1.9lb
Constructed from premium grade 1.9lb density Arpro Polypropylene resins, Kinetic Core delivers amazing projection and response as a result of high pressure cell- fusion created during the blank manufacturing process. Kinetic Core is a warm water core available in various reinforcement configurations, each tuned-in for specific wave conditions.
STRINGER: EGF STRINGER
Hollow, lightweight, filament wound EGF (Epoxy-Glass Fibre) for increased board strength and spring-like recoil. (Note: Stringers do not prevent creasing – please check for stringer placement when drilling leash plug).
SLICK: HD – HIGH DENSITY SLICK SKIN
Hard wearing, high-density slick bottom skin for improved board stiffness and speed.
DECK: Wave Cushion Air PE Deck
8lb. non-crosslink Polyethylene outer skins. The premier skin for high performance bodyboarding.
RAILS: IXLPE Inner Rail/ Cellucushion Outer Rail, Double 50/50 rails
TAIL: CRESCENT TAIL
Classic 45o angle on a 385o radius cut. Loose and responsive, Crescent Tails are the preferred tail shape of the HB CoreTeam. CNC cut for maximum precision.
ADDITIONAL FEATURES:
Hull Concave, Thumb Grooves, Nose & Tail Bumpers, Nose Bulbs

Double V Concave
This board features a Double V Concave instead of channels. This creates an air pocket in the back half of the board. Breaking up surface tension & creating an air bubble resulting in more lift, less drag, increased speed while having better hold & rail control resulting in better manouvreability. This creates the ultimate board for speed & control.
