Works so good in fun waves, holds a line and carves on a dime.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Chopper is a super versatile shape – it’s got the volume and length to pick up kneehigh waves or to get an early takeoff in well overhead surf.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe design has a bit of volume forward and a low entry rocker so it has a nice forward trim feel on an open face or in small conditions. There’s a nice bit of foam under your chest making it paddle well without feeling big and corky.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the tail of the board, the more modern refinement on a classic style egg shows – the pulled in tail combined with a low rail, single to double concave and smooth exit rocker makes this unexpectedly lively when surfed from the tail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt has a 2+1 fin set up and can be ridden as 2+1, single or twin. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFin(s) included:\u003c\/strong\u003e None.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction TEC\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTorq Epoxy Composite offers performance shapes in our vacuum epoxy layup. Vacuum epoxy uses a hand lay-up process, with a vacuum bonding process to bind the fiber to the board and remove excess resin. We have a few tricks in the vacuum process that keeps the resin content at a much better level than can usually be achieved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the benefits?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe can add extra layers of fiber while keeping the overall weight down – our shortboards have 18oz of fiber on the deck and 10oz on the base – approximately double of the fiber found on most boards of the same weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is lightweight AND durability. The weight is similar to a PU but we have a lot more fiber and more layers to reinforce the rail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do they surf?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe performance is very direct – TEC has an immediate response that is especially good in smaller or weaker waves. In larger waves the advantage is they are a lot less likely to break.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you’re used to PU they feel quick at first. After a few surfs, your old PU will feel very slow!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur team rider’s report their boards outlasting their previous boards by around 2-4 times longer.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Torq","offers":[{"title":"6'10 \/ Clear","offer_id":57146649444730,"sku":"TQ-TC-CH-0610","price":719.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"7'2 \/ Clear","offer_id":57146649477498,"sku":"TQ-TC-CH-0702","price":729.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"7'6 \/ Clear","offer_id":57146649510266,"sku":"TQ-TC-CH-0706","price":739.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"6'10 \/ Colour","offer_id":57146649543034,"sku":"TQ-TC-CH-0610-T","price":749.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"7'2 \/ Colour","offer_id":57146649575802,"sku":"TQ-TC-CH-0702-T","price":759.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"7'6 \/ Colour","offer_id":57146649608570,"sku":"TQ-TC-CH-0706-T","price":769.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0921\/3126\/2842\/files\/TQ-TC-CH-Clear_7ad1379b-6204-42d4-9309-256b2b422b0f.webp?v=1785931636","url":"https:\/\/hartbeach.nl\/products\/torq-chopper-tec-fcs-ii-2-1-fin","provider":"Hart Beach","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
