The WRV Wahoo is a refined blend of classic and contemporary design. It fuses a traditional fish outline with elements from high-performance shortboards to create a hybrid that’s both stylish and capable. The deck transitions from a beveled rail at the nose to a more performance-oriented rail through the mid-section and tail, offering a dynamic feel underfoot. Underneath, the single-to-double concave leading into a light vee promotes speed, control, and easy rail-to-rail transitions. With generous volume throughout, the Wahoo encourages smooth, fluid surfing across a wide range of conditions.
Pros:
Combines the speed and glide of a fish with the control of a modern shortboard.
Beveled-to-modern rail transition enhances responsiveness and flow.
Full volume adds paddle power and accessibility.
Versatile bottom contours support a smooth, high-speed ride.
Cons:
May not suit surfers seeking tight, vertical maneuvers.
Less suited for very steep or hollow waves compared to a true high-performance board.
Summary:
The WRV Wahoo is a versatile hybrid that delivers the best of both worlds—classic fish feel with modern performance enhancements. Ideal for surfers who want smooth lines, easy speed, and the ability to turn on when needed, the Wahoo is a reliable option for a wide range of skill levels and surf conditions.
