I was wondering if someone could tell me what is the difference between concaved caved surboards, for the bottom. Compared to a flat.Would concaved be better? Or the opposite or is just preference. I wondering cause im shaping a board and it is flat right now, not concaved
For shortboards concave creates lift and drive. A real important aspect in today’s high performance boards. For longboards concave in the nose creates more lift in the front making noseriding easier.
For a short board for an average surfer is thier a big difference and should I shape my board concaved? Or is it all preference cause i have my board shaped flat right now on the bottom.
If your surfing somewhere were the waves are kinda slow there would be an advantage in concaves. There certainly are advantages here in Fl. Somewhere more powerful, for the average guy, there would be less advantage.
