The Lucent is a refined twin-fin step-up, stretched and tuned with Asher Pacey’s fast and fluid surfing in mind. By elongating the template and narrowing the outline, this board gains impressive down-the-line speed while maintaining maneuverability through a subtle curve behind the wing. With a generous foam distribution under the chest and a beaked nose, the Lucent offers excellent paddle power. The modern bottom contour—single to double with a spiral vee—delivers lift, control, and seamless rail transitions. Designed to perform in overhead surf but accessible enough for smaller days, the Lucent is a versatile addition for the surfer who demands style and speed with function.
Pro
Exceptional Down-the-Line Speed: The straighter, stretched outline is made to fly.
Twin-Fin Freedom with Added Control: Spiral vee and tail curve keep it nimble in bigger surf.
Hybrid Step-Up Utility: Paddles like a mid-length but surfs like a performance board.
Foam Where You Need It: Full chest and beak nose make it a strong paddler without feeling bulky.
Con
Less Snappy in Tight Pockets: The stretched outline may limit vertical surfing in super tight transitions.
Requires a Confident Approach: Designed for speed and flow—less ideal for surfers who favor flicky, high-frequency turns.
Final Verdict
The Lucent is a high-speed hybrid step-up that brings twin-fin flair into waves of consequence. With plenty of foam for easy paddling and just the right amount of rocker and contour to handle critical sections, it’s a sleek, stylish solution for those looking to surf fast and smooth in a wide variety of conditions. A perfect fit for the intermediate-to-advanced surfer who wants the glide of a twin and the versatility of a modern mid-length.
