Beau Young Wombat
6'4 x 21 x 2 3/4
Shaped at Open on Beau's last visit. This is a one board quiver with multiple fin options.
Here is what Beau says:
'In the late 1990s, early 2000s myself and then shaper Paul Hutchinson designed a board named “The Wombat”.
Wide, versatile and enabling surfers of any ability to get out there have fun and
catch a ton of waves on a shortboard. “The Wombat” went on to be a best-seller
worldwide for the Bear surfboard company.
“The Wombat MKII” has all the attributes of the original only better!! Still nice and wide
and relatively thick for catching any wave with ease, the new model has a touch more rocker (curve) in the bottom shape to make turning easier, a Diamond tail instead of the traditional large rounded square tail also enhancing the turning capability of a tried and truly tested design.
The board concept is a combination of some of the designs similarly used by Australian surfing greats Wayne Lynch and Michael Petersen during the early to mid 70’s period. With a centre fin box and multiple plugs this newly enhanced model is more diverse than ever before. Take a ride on “The Wombat MKII” from tiny waves to 6-foot high surf this is the perfect mid-length board. If you want to feel the glide of a longboard or you are ready to adapt to something shorter, try a “Wombat MKII”.
