The narrower nose and tail help to lay the board over on harder carves without catching a rail. The parallel mid section helps with speed, and the overall longer\/narrower plan shape enables the board to be super efficient.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRails: \u003c\/strong\u003eChined with hard bottom edges. The flat chined rails enable more radical carves and maneuvers, without catching a rail. The hard edges help water release more efficiently, reducing drag.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRocker: \u003c\/strong\u003eFlatter with subtle nose kick and aggressive tail kick. The flatter rocker helps the board to get on foil effortlessly. The aggressive tail kick helps when you are pumping up, or taking off. It also ensures you have more space between the board and wave in critical white water sections. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBottom: \u003c\/strong\u003eSubtle rounded V into flat midsection. The subtle V at the front helps the board on touchdowns, it won’t immediately stick and bog. The flat planing surface through the middle allows the board to glide and glance over any sections you throw at it. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDeck: \u003c\/strong\u003eConcave Deck. We have a concave deck to get the rider as close to the foil as possible while maintaining the volume needed. It's a soft concave without any drastic edges so it doesn't trap water on the deck after takeoff. The deck line has been pulled right out to the edge of the rail edge, making the usable deck area as large as possible. This is especially important on these narrower designs. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinal Statement: \u003c\/strong\u003eIf you're looking for an easy to use, yet surprisingly nimble mid length board for Prone, Wing, Downwind or even Foil Drive, then this is the board for you! \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Sunova","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45007680897206,"sku":"105590","price":1399.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0583\/9758\/9686\/files\/detail_Pilot_Mid_01-overview_2x_622e3d22-67c6-43dc-baf1-8ee0c8a7dc44.webp?v=1775779105","url":"https:\/\/gorgeperformance.com\/products\/pilot-mid-59-x-18-1-2-51l","provider":"Gorge Performance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
