Flanagan Saiko High Performance Surfboard
Saiko is a versatile high-performance shortboard that caters to a wide range of surfers and excels in small wave conditions. This custom-order board can be tailored to your specific needs and is designed to be ridden 1 inch shorter than your standard shortboard. Based on the DNA of the SXE, the Saiko is built to handle the everyday waves surfers encounter around the world. It's a great option for soft beach breaks and points, providing speed through softer sections and easy connections for hybrid waves.
Compared to the SXE, the Saiko has a slightly narrower outline with more nose rocker, slightly less tail rocker, and a shorter, less pronounced Vee off the tail. The wider nose aids in paddling and provides momentum in weaker waves for high-risk maneuvers like nailing airs. The tail outline maintains width throughout until a slight hip to a round squash tail pod, providing stability, speed, and control. The breaking point in the outline allows for tight pivoting turns.
The bottom contours feature a single to double concave inside a single concave. The deep concave from 24'' back provides lift and speed, while the rail rocker changes from a generous forward concave around the front fins to a deeper, more curvy rail line. The slight Vee behind the fin and off the tail adds to the board's maneuverability. Overall, the Saiko is an excellent option for surfers looking for a high-performance shortboard that handles a wide variety of conditions.
