The Flag is a sharp, modern evolution of the beloved Scorpion model—fine-tuned for surfers who want high performance in both soft mushy waves and punchy, wedgy beach breaks. Developed in response to rider feedback, The Flag introduces a slightly pulled-in round tail, offering more control and precision in tighter pockets and steeper sections.
It features a low entry rocker that helps with early wave entry and drive, transitioning into an aggressive tail rocker that enables quick direction changes and vertical responsiveness. This thoughtful rocker profile makes The Flag feel nimble and reactive, particularly when the waves turn on and demand speed and agility.
The bottom contour is equally well-designed, with a subtle single-to-double concave running through the center, blending into a slight vee off the tail. This provides a stable platform for rail-to-rail transitions, enhancing flow while maintaining control under pressure.
Designed to be ridden at or near the surfer’s height, The Flag caters to a wide range of riders looking for a compact board that doesn't sacrifice drive or performance.
Pros:
Pulled-in round tail enhances control in steeper, punchier conditions
Low-to-high rocker combo offers fast entry and sharp, responsive turning
Versatile bottom contours adapt to varied wave types
Performs well in both soft and powerful waves
Designed with input from real surfers for real-world functionality
Cons:
May lack the paddle power of wider grovelers in very weak surf
Aggressive tail rocker may require more input from beginner surfers
Summary:
The Flag is a dynamic and versatile board designed for the surfer who wants a reliable go-to for everything from soft beach breaks to snappy wedges. With enhanced tail design, tuned rocker, and responsive contours, it’s a board that brings confidence and control to more challenging conditions, while still maintaining fun and flow in everyday surf. A well-rounded weapon for intermediate to advanced riders seeking adaptability without compromise.
