Words from MB: After putting a few fun filled, bar raising sessions in on the RNF-Retro, where Kolohe did some of the best performance fish surfing we've ever seen, he came to me and wanted to take the concept further. "That thing is so fun. I feel like I can't get off it, but really, I'd love to have one with more of a nose. Closer to a regular shortboard up front, but don't change the tail or anything else." The first board was a veritable home run with Kolohe surfing it in soft, often gutless, winter Trestles peelers, with speed, power and retained momentum though every turn. Well documented on video, he proudly proclaimed it his "best ever alternative board. It's got all the skate and playfulness of the fish, but the nose gives me more to push against up front. More drive through turns and more rail to lay in the water." Who are we to argue.
