Brody HP
The Brody HP, a true high performance egg. Capturing the best aspects of mid length designs (Paddle, speed, flow) with high performance shortboard characteristics. (Pivot, Directional change, fin placement) We knew there was a void to fill in our mid length lineup and that was a true hyper egg as what the old school guys would call it. We went to work, and what we ended up with is a strong back foot driver that has elements of glide and flow much like traditional mid lengths.
Key Features: Slight Rounded Bluntish Nose, giving it some personality but keeping the outline clean and uniform. Thinner foil and foam distribution as compared to the OG Brody Egg. Traditional rocker flow, lowish tail and medium nose with late flip. This makes for a super back foot driver that still paddles well and won’t catch on steeper drops with the flip. Medium/Low tuck shortboard style rails. Shortboard style bottom contours with a hard edge in tail which pairs perfectly with your tried and true set of fins. If you are a thruster guy ride it as so, if you are a quad guy ride it as so. I would size this board in the 7ft range if you want to maximize paddle and wave catching. I would size it shorter if you want to maximize performance in tight radius turns and/or live in a place with steep tight pockets.

Hows this compared to other models in same category?
The Brody HP falls in the top end range of our eggs in terms of wave size and performance. It’s a perfect board for aging short boarders or even younger short boarders looking to get into riding mid lengths. It’s a great travel board for wide playing fields or tiring arms after a week of riding thinner shortboards. Even weekend warriors that work all week and want to get out and rip on the weekends but need the length and the paddle to compete in crowds. Customers have ridden this board well above the initial intention for the board in places like Cloud break Fiji and Macaroni’s Indo, and said it fit perfect in those waves.
