JS Raging Bull Surfboard – Easy Rider

Description

Easy Rider dimensions have been created with the goal of making JS’ most popular models even more approachable. JS designed the Easy Rider specs for easier paddling coupled with high performance surfing. Foam is hidden in all the right places for extra floatation, but with lowered rails that can still be buried at high speed.

It has all of the elements Occy wanted to make performance surfing easy. User-friendly, but with the ability to handle heavier conditions and powerful surfers. Compared with JS’s other models built for quality surf, there’s a lot of differences here. A fuller nose with the wide point and extra thickness pushed forward combine with a flatter entry rocker to make it paddle fast and get into waves early, and then while surfing, generate and hold all of that extra speed.
A pulled-in tail gives you control for turns and barrels in more critical conditions, while a touch more curve in the exit rocker adds manoeuvrability and release out of the lip. Moderate single concave starts under front foot, moving to double just before the fins to provide lift and more intuitive rail-to-rail transitions. Then finally, there’s Occ’s favourite part – as he calls it, the “Raging Bull thickness”. Essentially, this refers to JS maintaining a strategically generous distribution of volume throughout the board that goes hand in hand with thicker stock dimensions. This is the key to more paddle power, gliding over flat sections, and to again quote Occ, “lets you leave it on rail forever.”

Rocker: Flatter entry rocker for easy paddling and speed off the mark, with slightly more curve in the exit rocker to balance flow with maneuverability and release.
Fin setup: Raging Bull comes as stock as a 5 Fin setup, allowing you to change between a thruster and a quad to suit personal preference and conditions
Glassing: Raging Bull is glassed standard with 4 x 4 oz. deck x 4 oz. bottom (All sizes come standard with Hybrid Fibre tail strips)
Rail type: Raging Bull has medium rails, providing a forgiving ride if conditions are less than ideal, but still allowing unlimited performance.

Fins not included
