[1] Drone / Dimensions: 5’6” x 19 7/8” x 2 5/16” / Shaper: Pat Mulhern / With all the models out, this one fits the new-school category. Wider, fuller, shorter. Reduced rocker, wave catcher. | [2] Nugget / Dimensions: 5’10” x 19 7/8” x 2 3/8” / Shaper: Bob Yinger / The “magic carpet” of models. Curvy outline and single-to-double-concave bottom optimizes maneuverability in small waves. | [3] Wombat / Dimensions: 5’6” x 19 7/8” x 2 3/8” / Shaper: Jesse Fernandez / The Nugget’s sleeker cousin, the Wombat was designed to stretch the range a bit—flatter entry rocker for smaller days with a slightly more pulled nose that allows for some barrel time when it’s called for.
