It is designed to fully utilize the high speed capabilities of the deep single concave, regardless of the fin setting. The "Elevator Wing Rocket Tail" was first adopted on the ZEKE to allow the board to catch waves and initiate turns even when reaching top speed and riding at high speeds, without giving the impression of voluminous buoyancy, making turns easy for all levels. The elevator wing step has the light feel of a competition board with thin rails, but is designed to make it easier to get a grip on the initial movement of a turn. The hooks on both sides of the rocket tail at the very tip of the tail provide board control and stabilize your riding. It has been supported by many people for 13 years since its release. This "ZEKE" is a new model that was researched and developed to write a new chapter in the history of PLACEBO surfboards.
