Containing all the proven design details and DNA as the RNF_96, from which is “spawned”, the RNF ’96_KINGFISH features:
- Low entry rocker, for paddling through line-ups, ease in catching waves and plenty of glide, to take you where you wanna go, once you’re on one.
- Flattish deck, with full, down/soft rails, for floatation and stability. The flat deck allows us to stay relatively thin with the KINGFISH, keeping the deck-line curvy.
- Even the larger sizes are relatively nimble, flexible and forgiving underfoot.
- Balanced outline, with modest width in the nose and tail, which both measure the same width, on all sizes, retaining plenty of central curve in the outline, for turning. The tail is still similar width to a shortboard and combined with the shallow swallow, it doesn’t feel “too fishy”, allowing real turns.
- Bottom contours are flat up front, blending to a single concave throughout the center, tapering to a double concave Vee, from the front fins, which accelerates to deep Vee, out the swallow tail.
The KINGFISH is designed to be ridden 6” (on average) longer than you would the RNF’96, although you can easily go shorter on the small sizes and extend longer on the larger sizes.
