Model overview
Step up your everyday game. This Pro-Performance Shortboard is a refined variation of the classic all-around daily driver, tailored for surfers seeking a sharper, more reactive response in average to good wave conditions. By leaning out the outline and thinning the rails, it delivers high-performance sensitivity, explosive release, and tight pocket surfing while keeping just enough forgiveness to fly through flatter sections.
Like every Watta it is shaped by hand and built to you. The size run below is a starting point, not a limit. Luis will tune the outline, the foil and the volume to your weight and the waves you surf, so the board suits you rather than the other way round.
Skill level, advanced
A performance board for a strong surfer who wants sensitivity and drive in the pocket. The rider weights in the chart show the advanced and intermediate range for each size, so you can read straight off it.
