​DESCRIPTION

Derived from the Black Diamond with the same nose outline and the addition of a pulled-in round thumb tail.  This board has single to double concave with an accelerated tail rocker. It excels in the upper reaches for wave size of a shortboard but you ride it 2 inches shorter, a half inch wider and in the same thickness.  The shorter rail line allows for tighter arcing turns in the pocket.

​Designed for bigger surf, the Black Thumb is good wave board that paddles easy and can handle high speed turns.
