Hugh Thompson – Asymmetrical

The Hugh Thompson Asymmetrical is a performance groveller designed to bring speed, flow and manoeuvrability to smaller surf. Featuring an asymmetrical tail design specifically tailored for a regular-footed surfer, this board is built around the different demands of your frontside and backside surfing.

The tail shape provides added stability on the dominant side of a regular-footed surfer, while the opposite side is designed to promote drive and flow. This asymmetrical approach aims to complement the way you surf, helping you generate speed, maintain control and link turns in smaller, softer conditions.

Best suited to waves ranging from 1–4 foot, the Asymmetrical is ideal for surfers looking for a performance-oriented groveller that makes the most of everyday surf while offering a unique, specialised design.
