Third world Exotic Surfboards just in.

admin — Sun, 22 Aug 2010 17:33:03 +0000

Third World Exotic Surf Boards just arrived at PB Surf Shop.

Third World Exotic Baron – 5’10″, 6’2″ – Single to double concave combined with accelerated tail rocker allows tight radius turns with speed to burn. A full tail block keeps the speed built in for back footed surfers, with a hip just before the fins to allow controlled release at anytime during a turn. Full rails for California surf, thoroughly tested on the beach breaks of San Diego and Baja California.

Third World Exotic Gordo Model – 6’2″ – Based off the Baron Model with the following changes: a wider nose block, slightly lowered entry rocker flowing to a single concave to the same accelerated tail rocker of the Baron. The hip has been moved back of the fins to increase volume in the tail for extra lift and speed in smaller surf. Due to the increase in overall volume, the bottom contour has been simplified to a subtle single concave running the length of the board. The Gordo maintains the same speed and responsiveness of the Baron, but with an increase in overall volume. It can be ridden several inches shorter than the Baron, resulting in a board that is capable of extremely tight radius turns even in small surf.

The group works with different musical genres, ranging from ice flossing hip hop to psychedelic rock. Their clothes, style and statements have made them trend-setters. While their growing social awareness saw their influence extend into the social and cultural revolutions. During the release of their first album and their ongoing singles releases, they have experimented with recording techniques that have the ability to bend sound in ways only drugs can.
