Atualizado: 15 de Out de 2019
Since we are surfboard lovers and have a lot of different boards for all types of surfers and waves, we like to dive into one single surfboard every week. Welcome to our series called ''Board of the Week''. Every Monday we'll start the week fresh and provide you with all the details, fun facts and inside information of a chosen surfboard.
Curious about a specific board? Let us know and we'll feature it soon!

Meet: Killer fish
--------
Everybody loves a fish. So does Miguel Blanco! But not only to glide on weak summer waves. That’s why he dove on this project with master shaper Lipe Dylong to create a fish that you can rip on 2 ft waves and also get 6 ft barrels on it. It took almost two years and 7 prototypes so Miguel and Lipe were finally satisfied with what they called the “Killer Fish”!

About:
The board is for all types of surfers; for the most experienced ones out there, to the surfers who just want to catch some fun waves in the weekend. The Killer Fish can be ordered and shaped according to personal preferences and is available in different kind of colors.
"Surfing for me, has always been way more than just the usual high-performance arena and that’s why we came up with the idea of creating an alternative design that would be super fun riding and drawing some different lines, but still be killer for performance as well” - Miguel Blanco
