The Vanguard which was created by Daniel 'Tomo' Thomson is now available in LFT! This modern planing hull's key element is the template outline. This parallel outline allows you to ride a smaller and narrower surfboard whilst reducing drag and increasing down the line speed. This board may be aimed at the more proficient surfer but the Vanguard is a surprisingly easy to ride board for a wide range of abilities and anges. The 18mm wide composite Springer HD Suspension System that runs from nose to tail and acts like a stringer but on steroids.
