A Balanced, Contoured Performer in a Shorter Package
The Flare E-Series refines a proven high-performance design by compacting it into a more responsive and balanced board. With the E-Series treatment, this model runs about 2” shorter than standard sizing. The last 5” of the bottom is blended into the deck to create an accelerated nose lift, while the removal of the nose tip reduces swing weight and evens out the foil for a more centered and intuitive feel.
The board maintains its moderate, continuous rocker and features a single concave from nose to tail, transitioning to a double concave under the feet. These bottom contours provide lift, control, and quick rail transitions, while the curvy outline allows for tight arcs and fluid lines.
Designed to perform across a range of wave types, the Full Plan E-Series is forgiving enough for intermediate surfers but has the responsiveness and design features to satisfy more advanced riders as well.
Pros:
Shorter E-Series length improves agility and turning radius
Accelerated nose lift and balanced foil reduce swing weight for quicker response
Concave-to-double setup offers lift, speed, and control underfoot
Curvy outline excels in carving and tight turns
Versatile across a wide range of wave conditions and skill levels
Cons:
Compact size may limit paddling power in weaker surf for some surfers
Less suited to powerful, overhead waves compared to more stretched-out outlines
Summary:
The Flare E-Series is a sleek, shortened high-performance board that blends a forgiving feel with tight, responsive control. With modern contours, an agile outline, and thoughtful nose and foil tweaks, this board is equally at home in beach breaks and reef setups, offering dependable performance across a variety of conditions. A great daily driver for surfers seeking a lively, all-around ride with just the right amount of edge.
