Features
  • The Shrike is all about high performance "surfing with a kite."
  • It will allow you to snap tightly in the pocket, or go way beyond vertical and fin-free.
  • It will square off the bottom tightly and with enough speed to fit twice the full-power-turns into a normal section - which allows you to keep tension on your lines and drift your kite.
  • Works great as a daily driver but really comes alive in bigger, more powered conditions.
  • Extra glass for durability but still maintains true surfboard weight and flex.
  • Single concave
Appletree Construction
  • 50K CLOSED CELL FOAM
    • The foam can withstand 50.000 kg per square meter, while staying very light, and most of all very flexible. Another plus of our 50K foam is that it is closed cell, meaning that the foam will not take in water. And the board will not blow out when it gets hot. Any small crack or ding does not need immediate repair. Eventually a repair is advised, but you can first finish your well deserved trip!
    • 50K foam is not easy to shape, all commercially available shaping machines will have great trouble shaping it and hand shaping is not possible. At Appletree Surfboards we use our own shaping machines that we built and control ourselves. This way we can not only shape the foam, but we can also create channels and extreme contours, straight from the machine.
  • HEX-SKIN GLASS
    • Our Hex-skin Glass construction consists of a 50K foam core. This foam is made exclusively for us and is 100% water- proof. The base of the board consists of three layers wrapped around the core. An internal structural fibreglass layer, a hex-skin flexible honeycomb layer and another structural fibreglass layer that is placed in a 45 degree orientation. This to keep the board as flexible as possible while making a very strong base. The bottom is left without honeycomb, again to maintain maximum flex.
