A versatile medium-volume round-pin tail board built for reef breaks, combining power, control, and accessibility.
The Indo Driver is designed as a medium volume surfboard with conservative proportions and a round pin tail, built to perform reliably in reef breaks ranging from chest high to well overhead.

The round pin tail adds control and hold, especially valuable in hollow reef waves, while the volume is balanced to provide enough paddle power without compromising maneuverability.
