A direct derivative of the DRIVER 3.0 and DRIVER 2.0, scaled up, but not dummied down, for bigger and (of course) older surfers, who still wanna rip. Fight fight fight to that dying last light! Motivated by the growing amount of custom orders we’ve been receiving for larger scale Pro-formance Series Shortboards, like the DRIVER series, and seeing a demand to offer them to a bigger audience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eInspired by the incredible surfing of Cole Houshmand and his 6’4”\/220lb frame, we started by dissecting the boards we’ve been building him over the last 3-4 years.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eCole is a young, fit athlete and world class surfer, so we figured similar boards could be great for smaller, but older, moderately skilled surfers, in the 175-190lb range, then scale up and down, from there. The sky is the limit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe BIG RIG…Driver retains most all of the design elements of Cole’s (and our other elite team riders) boards:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p3\"\u003eThicker centerline, with rolled deck and smooth sloping “not too boxy” rails.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p3\"\u003eContinuous rocker, that accelerates though the tail, under the rear foot, but relaxes in the entry rocker.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p3\"\u003eSingle concave throughout, but deepest between the feet and mellowing in the front 2’ and rear 1’ of the board.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p3\"\u003eNoticeable double concave through the fins and under the rear foot, to cut through the thoroughly modern, high performance tail rocker.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p3\"\u003eA curvy, catch free outline, with a modest squash tail, for average surf.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eOne thing we did do, is relax the entry rocker a bit, and fill in the forward 12” of the nose outline, making for an easier paddle through the line-up and wave catching, with more built in glide into and while surfing waves. No one wants to see us older guys flapping around, trying to create speed!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eBuilt with the same blanks and glass jobs as the smaller “Pro-formance” Series boards, to keep them light, nimble and responsive under foot. If the stock\/standard dims don’t seem generous enough, or a touch too big, we can easily adjust up and down, as well as substitute round, or round pin tails, to make the perfect fit for you and your needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"1267\" height=\"713\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/uTF4AcsuBRo\" title='...Lost BIG RIG w\/ Matt \"Mayhem\" Biolos'\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lost","offers":[{"title":"6'4","offer_id":45031011877046,"sku":"105688","price":810.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0583\/9758\/9686\/files\/IMG_55562_96ed5e8b-0ee6-432e-a060-763398b6bc79.heic?v=1775758111","url":"https:\/\/gorgeperformance.com\/products\/big-rig-driver-65","provider":"Gorge Performance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
