This now classic model has just been made available again. This model has had some subtle fine tuning (courtesy of master shaper Glenn Pang) to have a touch of modern performance. Replacing the flat panel vee bottom of the original, with something a touch more modern. There is a slight single concave through the front and middle of the board. This concave then flattens out into a vee out the tail – for a little more lift and liveliness. The Saint still has the same full outline, with a wing just behind the fins that pulls into a tighter swallow tail. The board retains the same foil or distribution of foam as the original. Plenty of meat has been kept in the nose and under the chest. This gives you great paddle power, glide and stability over the front foot.
