Surfing Brutal Pipeline + Serrated SurfBoard Test!

The video is LIT 🔥!! It’s so fun to watch - BEST VLOG EVER 🙌🙌

some snowboards have edges like the serrated board.

It's cut above the rest!

The Pickle!

The wobble Master

🙌Yeah Koa!

Its worked for the snowboard industry though its slower than a traditional edge.

It's not the board you could surf on a 2 by 4

Wow 🤯What if u actually copy a sawblade.. sharp edges, close together, pointing to the back following the shape of the board.. i dont know how you would laminate it but I feel it could work.. the principle is that to rip cuts the teeths gaps are longer, for ripping cuts they are closer together. Could even try wide spacing on the nose and shorter on the tail.. i just thought your model look more like bumps/waves than teeth, not exactly like a serrated knife. Evan Vallery was experimenting with boards that copy shark skin, like ke swimmers wet suits, not polished, that could help also

Take into consideration the placebo effect. You may be riding the steak knife better because you believe it’s better

Un monstruo;; 😮😮i

Very interesting Upload! That Green board with the ‘Dimple Edge Rails’ Goes! 🔥👍🤙

Bumpy Pickle

call it the saw

How about naming the green board 'The shark bite' kinda looks like something nibbled the rails😂 .sick

The Green Machine

The Serrator Dominator board

Super rad! Travis rice has also done the serrated edges with lib tech snowboards!!!

Call it the Butter Knife or my chinese girlfriend calls it the Boller knife. Another name is the whale fin. Looks like it rips, have fun.

The "Zippa' " ! Nuff said !

I'd call that an undulated edge rather than a serrated edge. Undulated is wavy, Serrated is more so jagged.

Matt Parker sounds like a cool guy

for a sec i thought it was JOB.. but then i remembered " He ( mostly ) rides Softops "...

The Ginsu.

Awesome video and surfing, Koa! Your board reminds me of my double-winger Rainbow from 1983 back in Cocoa Beach shaped by Doug Wright. He stopped shaping boards and went into Aerospace or racing boats, or something next level, but his boards are epic. I still have my little Rainbow, but I sold the 6'4," unfortunately.

So we got a few names Hot Butter, Segregated, Japanese Knife, Whooped-De-Dos, Speed Bumps, Shark Bite, RXR, Hell Llama

Name the board mad rad

The saber
The Ginsu
The Shank

Magna traction. Pioneered by Lib Tech.

Call it tbe Serpent

you should call it the Riddler!! The green color & question mark go along with that vibe; also because of the mystery of how it would ride!

I would have called it the blade. I think you gotta make them smaller and and more serrated

bread knife ...

Steak knife went crazy! Another amazing video Koa!

Back in 1980 Tom Carroll experimented with a board that had various concaves on the underside of the board. The principle being that if not all of the board was in contact with the surface of the wave it should go faster or slower, depending on where you place your weight. It’s always great to see experimentation happening, rather than just accepting the status quo. Tom used the board at the Gunston 500, which he didn’t win, but he was, nevertheless, confident enough to test it on the World Tour (such as it was in them days). Best of luck with future experiments, Koa. Great content!

Lib Tech did this on their snowboards and they do carve better, handle ice and chop way better. I am not surprised it works on surf boards too. Super sick video!

Cool looking board, not a new idea by any means. I shaped a couple several years ago that were quite similar (for the record I have 3000+ shapes under my belt in 50+ years of custom shaping) and Terry Chun, also here on Kauai, was doing basically the same idea also some years ago, maybe he is still? I'm gonna guess that others have tried this as well. Still, it's always good to see experimentation. Great surfing!

Glasser and sander goin to love u Koa 😅 keep pushing the limits 🙌
Great video and sessions !
Blessings and aloha charger 🤙
