This is the winning shortboard for the 2023 Stab in the Dark with Italo Ferreira. Every year, STAB holds a double-blind surfboard competition where the shaper does not know the surfer for whom he is building a board, and the surfer does not know what brand is under his feet.
With the goal of maximum performance in mind, the Al Merrick 2.Pro offers more speed thanks to less rocker, making it easier to surf for a wide range of surfers in a wider variety of waves. With ¼" less rocker compared to the CI Pro, the 2.Pro retains the same subtle single concave that transitions to a slight double concave through the fins, keeping the surfboard in the water and creating that familiar connected feel during transitions.
