Description
DESCRIPTION
Three Palms Due Back surfboards are made using our tough Moulded Epoxy (MX) construction and are designed specifically for the beginner in mind. This model uses the Modern Highline as its base shape. We have an excess of volume to make those early learning stages easy as it will be faster to paddle allowing you to catch the wave earlier. To become a better surfer you need to catch plenty of waves. This board gives you a real shortboard feel.
OUTLINE: The 6’4 & 6’8 sizes in the Due Back line are aimed at providing maximum width and volume in a shorter board. This makes them exceptionally stable, but still easy to manage in and out of the water.
ROCKER: All boards are designed with lower rocker to make paddling easy and maintain forward momentum and speed, even in unbroken waves.
FINS: Fitted with FCS II plugs makes installing and removing fins quick and convenient for rental operators and surf schools.
PERFORMANCE: Offering a large sweet spot across all models, our Due Back models require less effort from the rider to get the board up and going. These boards are a notch up from a softboard allowing novice surfers to gain confident riding on the wave face and start acquiring the basic fundamentals turning skills.
NOTE: Rider weight is based on board volume and intermediate rider skill level

Construction | Molded Epoxy – MXMolded Epoxy (MX) construction delivers structural integrity through the high pressure molding of multiple components. The components being; a medium density EPS core, 5 layers of Fiberglass (3 x deck, 2 x bottom) and a special epoxy resin that’s mixed with carbon strands. Encapsulating the whole board, and forming an outer skin that bonds through to the core, this combination of materials is fused together for over 4 hours under constant heat and pressure. The result is a very durable, well weighted board, and the high pressure molding process ensures that each board is identical to our specifications.
