Is the local a bit mushy sometimes?

Want a board you can thrash around more?

Try a swallowtail.

They eat little waves for breakfast and are super skatey.

They excel in small to medium sized swell and mush.

The swallowtail provides two sharp points to pivot on so you get a loose feel and can throw it around easily.

They also allow you to have a wider tail without sacrificing control because they reduce the planing area.

However you’ll most likely lose on high-end performance in bigger waves so might not be the best option if you only have one stick.
