The reef swallow is something that is dear to Muzza’s past experiences in Indo the last 35 years. This design is a reaction to the dominance of the rounded pin as the first choice for bigger reef waves. The narrowed swallow tail is the best tail for driving bottom turns and also for sitting deep in Indo barrels. The superior tail bight allows one to be more forthright with the front foot for driving down the line in order to make the never ending walls. The performance concave which runs right through to the tail gives this design the speed it needs to sit high and run. Thirty five years of R+D cannot be discounted by shear fashion.
