Torq Multiplier TEC - FCS II - 5 Fin 5'8 Clear

Product description

The Multiplier is a performance board designed to multiply your wave count.

We blended the tail from our high performance Thruster model with a slightly lower rockered nose, while keeping the rail and foil low. The resulting hybrid catches waves easily, but also gains speed much more quickly than a narrow noised shortboard and with a razor sharp responsive tail to use it!

“I always put one of these in my board bag when I'm going anywhere in the world. Small or decent waves, that’s the one” - Edouard Delpero.

Fin(s) included: None.

Construction TEC

Torq Epoxy Composite (TEC) offers performance shapes in our vacuum epoxy layup. Vacuum epoxy uses a hand lay-up process, with a vacuum bonding process to bind the fiber to the board and remove excess resin. We have a few tricks in the vacuum process that keeps the resin content at a much better level than can usually be achieved.

What are the benefits?

We can add extra layers of fiber while keeping the overall weight down – our shortboards have 18oz of fiber on the deck and 10oz on the base – approximately double of the fiber found on most boards of the same weight.

The result is lightweight AND durability. The weight is similar to a PU but we have a lot more fiber and more layers to reinforce the rail.

How do they surf?

The performance is very direct – TEC has an immediate response that is especially good in smaller or weaker waves. In larger waves the advantage is they are a lot less likely to break.

If you’re used to PU they feel quick at first. After a few surfs, your old PU will feel very slow!

Our team rider’s report their boards outlasting their previous boards by around 2-4 times longer.
