Hughes Surfboards Drive

A high performance shortboard designed for above average surfers in medium to overhead waves.

This model has a curvier entry rocker which flattens toward the tail. With its single concave it has exceptional speed and drive off the bottom, not to mention extension through and acceleration out of turns. With a narrower nose, its forward rails are fuller and soft, becoming finer and squarer toward the tail to enhance crispness and release out of the top.

It has become a popular model with team riders as it produces more power in their surfing… so far great results.

Construction Material

PU

PU (Polyurethane) refers to the type of foam core which has been traditionally used in the manufacture of surfboards since the late 40’s and early 50’s.

This core has been glassed with polyester resins to produce surfboards of varying size and weights.

PU is still the most common form of construction as it offers a familiar feel and performance for most surfers.
