The Sub Driver OG and 2.0 have long been staples of our amateur, WQS and Challenger Series competitors’ quivers. A small wave performance, workhorse weapon, since a young Kolohe Andino used them to rampage through the Amateur and QS ranks, on his way to over a decade on the World Tour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003eA longstanding favorite of Average Joes and countless Bros, on both East and West Coasts, to stay surfing on a performance short board, on a level they can boast…rather than a fish or hybrid shape, in average to sub-par surf. The past 3-4 years’ refinement and feedback, we’ve evolved the foil, bottom curves, outline rails and rocker, for a new generation of surfers to attack typical small wave contests.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003eGuys like Cole Houshmand and Kade Matson both relied on swallow tail Sub Drivers to qualify for the WT.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003eMichael Rodrigues regularly rips them, as does East Coast stalwart Michael Dunphy and the OG Kolohe.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003eBased off rider feedback and the consistently large amount of custom orders for swallow tailed Sub Drivers, we realized it’s time to release the updated design…and do it as a swallow tail, first. The SubDriver3.0 (swallow) was born. A generously proportioned, performance outline, with its wide point noticeably set back, creating a hip between the feet, that swoops into a moderately wide swallow.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003eThe bottom features a deep single concave, through the center, maxing out between the feet, then hyper-extends (with plenty of double concave) through the tail. There, the rail line accelerates to the Sub Driver 3.0’s distinctive Vee, behind the rear fin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003eThe swallow tail reduces surface area, provides drive and lends some grip and pivot, while still retaining width, for speed. The rail rocker mirrors the outline hip, combining to provide a balanced fulcrum to initiate effortless turns, anywhere on the wave. This is really where the board has evolved to the point of warranting a new model update.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003eThe low fast tail rocker drives from the rear foot and is balanced with a moderate entry rocker that is quick off the bottom and easily wraps around when put on rail or laying into cutbacks.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003eWith both the rail line and outline having the apex curve set back (between the feet), the SubDriver3.0 is very maneuverable board.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003eIts low tail rocker and generous width and concave get it up to speed quickly with down the line speed.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003eIt excels where other performance boards fail and is designed to be ridden a 1”-2” shorter and a fair bit wider than the DRIVER 3.0 or 3.0 STUB.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eBlackSheepBuilt boards begin with light weight, 1.5lb virgin EPS and utilize the most advanced “Triax-NCF” (Non-Crimp Fabric) high-quality carbon fiber, to create a fast, responsive and lively surfboard.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eA board that is both lightweight and\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eflexible, but also surprisingly strong.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e“Triax” Carbon is laminated only on the deck, with a short bottom lap and sandwiched with multiple layers of 4oz, “D-size” fiberglass, top and bottom, for both durability and performance.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e•Engineered for rapid reaction and maintaining a forgiving flex and dampened overall feel, under foot.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eThe combination of both Triax Carbon and fiberglass helps BlackSheepBuilt boards feel lively and exciting, but familiar at the same time.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eThe unique performance of BlackSheepBuilt boards comes from the Triax Carbon, which combines a triple-axis +30\/-30°\/0 layup.
