“The PRO WAM is the perfect all-rounder with a standard squashed tail that’s the most similar to a surfboard design. For 2020 it’s much lighter and with increased volume to length ratio, you can really feel how the updates benefit performance.
As it’s designed for all conditions, it’s very cool that there a many sizes to suit all shape and size of riders, even the groms. The 5’3” and 5’5” are for the lighter and younger riders. The 5’7 works well for females like myself (i’m 130lbs) and guys would enjoy the 5’9” and 5’11”.
A standard day during the winter season at home on Maui is around 3ft. I love that the PRO WAM is whippy and easy in onshore conditions yet fast down the line at another spot where the wave runs better. It can deliver tight bottom turns, snappy at the lip and throws a lot of spray. It’s a true Maui board.
The lighter construction for 2020 is really durable - believe me, I take a lot of hits and crashes. I like a lighter board as it’s more agile, snappy and doesn’t speed wobble through bottom turns. It’s always engaged and is soft underfoot. The extra volume makes it feel surfy, it’s a super progressive design.
When the waves get big I use the PRO SESSION 5’8” to hold down the face of the wave where it can get a bit bumpy. The flatter rails and extra weight make a significant difference especially when I want to do long drawn out carves.
When the wind is light and the waves small, it’s all about the PRO FISH. It’s smooth, playful, forgiving, easy to transition and perfect to learn on.”
