Whether you're a beginner surfer or just want to enjoy a cruises session, the Chancho is a super easy to surf, stable board that catches waves effortlessly. For its medium size, the Chancho offers plenty of volume and a flat nose rocker that makes it possible to catch waves early. Its V-Bottom contour running through the fins to tail helps turn effortlessly.
The board is an evolution of shaper Al Merrick's popular WATER HOG board.

TORQ X-LITE TECHNOLOGY
The Torq X-Lite technology takes the already innovative epoxy construction to unimagined levels of weight and performance.
The core of the boards consists of a custom-made high-precision EPS blank, which is covered with biaxial fabric and epoxy resin. An additional layer of impact resistant protective mesh is applied to the deck of the X-Lite boards, distributing the pressure of impacts evenly over the surface to protect against dings and heel dents.
The underside features a torsionally stiff carbon strip that controls flex and makes the board incredibly responsive.
X-Lite construction stands out over traditional PU/polyester construction due to its more environmentally friendly production process and unmatched weight to strength ratio.
