ALLROUND WAVE

This GenXsports favourite is a massive hit with any surfboard rider that has to make the best out of mushy conditions whilst still having enough performance to rip along the line when things get big. The new swallow tail adds even more smoothness to an incredible magic carpet ride, all you have to do is choose your best suited fin setup and you're good to rip. Once again the guys at CORE have produced another outstanding piece of equipment that is sure to please. 

New shape. More smiles per wave. The original is back with a radical new look and an even wider range. The Ripper features a completely new outline and improved rocker that’s incredibly easy to ride. Ripper. New shape. Same classic polyurethane and glass flex.

So, what’s new? The Ripper features a wider, fish-inspired, profile and a new mini swallow tail. The additional width (19” on the 5’8”) and volume focused around your feet make the forth generation easier than ever to ride under-powered or sloppy waves. We reduced fin toe-in by 4mm to give it more drive and the mini swallow tail provides a little extra bite in the corners. Imagine the fun you’ll have in sloppy waves. Yesss, fun! Give it a try. You’ll see. Just remember to demo the smaller sizes too. You may find your perfect Ripper is one size smaller now.
