Unlike rigid plastics, Surlyn has amazing flexural stiffness that allows a board to conform and contort to the curve of the wave when controlled by applied pressure from the rider. When the torque is released, the dynamic memory properties of the Surlyn deliver instant recoil, projecting the board onto the next section. Surlyn is so strong that it is used as the cover for golf balls due to its unique abilities to resist cutting and abrasions from golf club impact. Surlyn is the slick of choice for high end bodyboards.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eREACT MESH\u003c\/strong\u003e- Diamond shaped mesh weave fused between the boards core and slick bottom skin for enhanced stiffness and recoil. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e1X HIGH PERFORMANCE CFT STRINGER Sizes 39\" \u0026amp; 40\"\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2X HIGH PERFORMANCE CFT STRINGERS 41\" and up\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEmpire Ergonomic Deck Contours\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNose Bulbs\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCRESCENT TAIL\u003c\/strong\u003e- Classic 45 degree angle on a 385 degree radius cut.
