Standup Bodyboarder: Zancudo

We have probably posted this clip before, but we definite think this is some amazing wave riding going on! Check out standup bodyboarder: Zancudo!

Stand Up Bodyboard or Super Shortboard

It's interesting to see how the surfing world can come a full circle and still get inspiration from a bodyboard shape to create a surfboard. Well one surf company shop has done that and it's pretty rad to see this happen. Bing Surf is the shop that has done just this. Below is a brief description of the board.

"Speed Square

Inspired by his fond childhood memories on a Mach-77 boogie board, Bing team rider, Chris Del Moro convinced shaper, Matt Calvani to help him recapture the magic in this modern-day twin-finned version called the Speed Square. Because of its short length, Matt added belly in the nose with a quick transition into a hard, tapered rail in the tail so that the board would be quick and responsive.  He added a deep straight concave that runs from where your front foot sits through the tail of the board to gain efficiency in glide and maintained thickness in the tail to improve glide and wave-catching ability.  The small twin keels maintain a “fin-less” riding quality but still allowing for some control.  Ride it short, ride it fast and get ready for a whole lot of fun!

Stand-Up Bodyboarding

Whoever first dared to stand up on a bodyboard is a pure innovator. One of the first people that we seen stand-up on a bodyboard was Chris "wonton" Taloa. He was just a pure waterman, good on both prone and dropknee. Well following in those foot steps we stumbled upon this El Salvadorian they call "Zancudo." The clip says it all, enjoy!
