“A short and sweet psychedelic treat, from the mad (and sometimes masochistic) mind of Mason Ho. The Little Wing is a playful performance shortboard, focused on fun, everyday, small to mid sized surf” - Matt Biolos.
The Little Wing Experience features a speedy short n wide outline. A full forgiving nose and noticeable hip in the tail which is wide at the fins but pulled in at the tail for precise cornering. A low speedy entry rocker and plenty of rocker in the tail for quick release snappiness. A deep exaggerated single concave transitions into an even deeper double concave through the fins adding lift and bringing the board to life in soft waves. A rolled deck carries thickness through the center line and makes for lower volume knifey but soft forgiving rails. Graphically we abide with Masons vibe as the freewheeling Voodoo Chile of Surfing... Built in our new lighter, stronger, ultra-responsive Techno Pop Construction this one will have you walking through the clouds... riding with the wind... Fly on Little Wing.
We Say
Fun in all the right places... Just what you would expect from Mason Ho.
It's a very competitive fight between this and the Rocket Redux as to which board is the best shortboard design for most people, especially people who are dealing with waves that don't exactly provide much push.
This board features a super forgiving squash tail design and a little bit of a lower rail line through the second half of the board so it feels a little more energetic than the Rocket through turns, even if it might lose out just a fraction in in straight line speed.
That tail design definitely drives this board though and with a very shortboardy front end you'll find it much easier to link several turns together top to bottom on this than many other shapers models in the same range.
Pretty sure this board will handle anything you can throw at it from points to reefs and it will love you forever if you give it a punchy, head high beach break to play with.
