This is the FM experience in a nuggetier package for all you who have let your mind wander into the expanse below our beloved 6'9.
The outline is a little more balanced and neutral, the thickness flow is balanced, the vee is lessened and pushed back a little - and the fins are a little less tracky than its larger counterparts.
This, for all intents and purposes, is the peoples FM.
This size addition is an exercise in getting over myself, listening to my crew, then working through the ideas and variations enough to put me RIGHT onboard with yall.
The Pedestrian SHIP
Hot off a win in the STAB Electric Acid Surfboard Test with Dave Rastovich, we had to scan that puppy and bring her into the fold. Available from 5'7 to 6'4:

The Machine
How do we use it and why? What does a machine do best, and what does Hand Shaping do better?
Our quiver is unique.
Design features that are useful to an 8’6 are not often best for a 6’6 even of the same model - So we scan multiple different boards for large scaling changes, and limit our computer-scaling to small, very defined parameters to make sure the machine doesn't get carried away and make you a complete plug.
Each size of each model can have significant outline, rocker, thickness & rail shape changes; because of that, each size has its own personality and minimal overlap within our offering - The wide variation in the FM range exemplifies this best.
