The V8 continues BF's 5 year design campaign
exploring what he terms "The Possibilities of the In Between".
Harkening back to the original Aussie V
Bottoms, Fowler retained the best attributes from the short lived design while
incorporating a modern foil and some heady plane geometry. A healthy dose of
"secret sauce" has produced one unique and ultra fun wave catching speed demon
that has garnered rave reviews in Cali, Florida, New York &
Japan.
"This lean machine is designed to be turned
from the middle, with control and stability coming from a forward position:
quite the opposite to most of today's surfboard designs. The V8 V-Bottom is NOT
a longboard or a displacement hull! Everything behind the trailing edge of the
fin is about quick release, allowing for carving rail turns and incomparable
speeds in small soft surf. V8's can also deliver some fresh impressive surfing
on larger flat faced waves."
