Documented board direction

The Rad Zapper sits in Quivrr's Hybrid Shortboard family and is classified as All Round Daily Driver. This classification describes design intent; it is not a score, award or claim that the model suits every surfer.

Typical quiver role

This model sits in the daily-driver position in Quivrr's controlled quiver framework. Its actual role depends on the selected size, the surfer's existing boards and usual conditions.

Manufacturer evidence

Mapped from canonical taxonomy hybrid. We created this board together, side by side in the shaping room, integrated his "Lazor Zap" design elements and flair into one of our most popular designs, the 1980's influenced Rad Ripper. Moved the wide-point back, noticeably pulling in the "no nose" tip and widening the tail, dramatically, making for amazing small wave attributes.
