The popular Placebo "RNF-EVOLUTION"
We receive many inquiries and advance reservations every day.
!!!!!thank you!!!!!
We have three sizes on display at Love Surf, but we hear that many people are busy with work and would like to visit our physical store but are unable to do so.
We will now explain in detail the design of the "RNF-EVOLUTION".
The tail design is a double bump wing super swallow tail, a combination that is only used on the RNF-EVOLUTION. The "double bump wing" refers to the two small wing sections that make up the outline on the left and right sides of the tail.
The first narrows the outline from the widest point of the board to the tip of the tail, and the second narrows it even further. The RNF-EVOLUTION is a longer board, so when Mayhem designed this model, they assumed the average Japanese foot size was 25-27cm, and added not one but two bump wings to make it easier to control for feet between 25-27cm.
There is another corner inside the two-part swallowtail at the tail end. A common tail shape that does not have this corner is called a swallowtail, but the tail design of the RNF-EVOLUTION model has an additional corner, so it is called a "super swallow" tail. This corner has the same effect as a wing, and when the rider steps on the tail of the RNF-EVOLUTION model, the corner catches the water surface, making it easier to control the board. This effect makes tail control easier, especially when the board goes too fast, so be sure to try it out for yourself.
Rail shape. This is a photo of the RNF-EVOLUTION model, 6'1" in size, with the thickest rails.
The rail shape is the line where your hand touches the board from your index finger to your thumb. You can see that the rails are uniquely soft, gradually thinning from the tip of your index finger. As you can see, the RNF-EVOLUTION model is by no means a thick rail model. It has a thin rail shape that makes it easier to get into the wave face.
This is the entry concave. The far side is the nose and the near side is the tail. Look at the shape of the gap between the board and the spirit level.
The level has a large gap in the center of the board, and both rails are touching. It has a gentle single concave.
This is an important entrance that regulates the flow of water over the bottom when paddling or riding.
This is a mid-concave in the middle of the board, which is slightly deeper than the entry concave.
And here we have a double concave front fin, with the board rising in the middle.
The water flow is split between the fins, and the water that flows into the bottom is quickly expelled to the rear of the board, preventing the tail from sticking to the water surface. It also improves the rider's control of the movement of the board using the rails and tail as desired.
The bottom shape of the middle fin area is a unique line design that combines VEE and double concave.
From here, it flattens out to the tip of the Super Swallowtail.
This is how it changes into a VEE design.
The concave adjusts the water flow on the bottom of the board, making the board float and giving it speed.
VEE is an important board design that makes it easier to control the board with your back foot.
This is a side view of the tail area. The tip of the tail is flat and angled from the center, with a sharp VEE.
You can see how the vee plane angle changes into a curve and connects with the rounded double concave near the front of the front fin.
This is the world's first dolphin grab. When dolphining, you hold the rail in this concave part as shown in the photo, and perform the dolphin movement just as the wave breaks and passes. The key is to hold on to the rail and sink the entire board. The effect of the dolphin grab is guaranteed to allow you to dive deeper than usual. The effect of the dolphin grab is truly amazing, and I can assure you that anyone can experience the complete difference between having it and not having it.
Please see the special page for photos of the board.
