Shaper's Comments:
I designed the 9'3" A to be a very serious “big guy” longer version of the 8'2"A blank for either high performance, retro’s or fun gun styles. Designed with a performance bottom curve and enough volume for 375lb. surfers. It should be able to yield 9'0" x 24½" also with ability to position the overall rocker and nose widths as needed. Cutting 2" of length off the nose will enable an 18¾" nose width at 12" back, and facilitate well for big guy fish designs. My special thanks to Ben Aipa who provided inspiration on the overall design of this blank and the new 8'2"A.
