What it does well

Slayer 2 follows a Good Wave Performance Shortboard / Step Up direction within the Good Wave Performance Shortboard / Step Up family. Its low paddle support and Thruster fin setup help define where it may fit; the final result still depends on size, construction, rider and conditions.
