Simply put, the Egg Not is a squash-tail version of our mid-length board, the eGG. With the growing popularity of mid-length boards, we decided it was more or less a given that we’d offer a squash-tail mid-length board. The squash tail offers a little more surface area, extends the rail line, and provides a more responsive ride than a round tail. The Egg Not is a great board to have in your quiver. When the swell is average, you can catch the wave well and ride through the sections, but the board is still loose enough to turn with ease. And when the swell gets a little bigger, it still performs amazingly well! The Egg Not features moderate rocker at the front of the board, which aids paddling speed, wave catch, and overall glide. The curve is slightly above average, which helps tighten the arc of your turns without sacrificing speed. The board’s thickness is a bit too thin for a board of this size. The slimmer rails make it easier to push the board into the water and also help it hold up better in bigger surf. The fin setup is up to you. For a better riding experience, we recommend a 4-fin quad setup. If you’re looking for a slightly more cruising-oriented or traditional feel, go with a 2-plus-1 setup.

TEC - TORQ EPOXY COMPOSITE
Torq Epoxy Composite offers high-performance shapes in our state-of-the-art epoxy layup. These boards provide the best balance between lightness and durability. Using our own unique lamination process, we’re able to incorporate a very strong fiberglass layup consisting of 6oz and 4oz layers in a three-ply deck and a two-ply tail (with a four-layer rail overlap) combined with high-density EPS foam, while still achieving a board weight comparable to that of a lightweight fiberglass layup.
The result is a lightweight yet very stable board with good flex characteristics and, as with all torq’s, an excellent price-performance ratio.
