CRUISE WITH POWER AND STYLE The Chopper is a versatile shape – it’s a cruisey ride when the conditions suit, but give it a big open face and it’ll fire on all cylinders. The clean lines of the outline and low rocker give this egg inspired shape a really smooth natural feel. In small waves it paddles, glides and trims with little effort. For surfers keen for larger surf, this’ll get into waves early, hold a line in the barrel and draw long rail to rail arcs out on the face. With the option of 4+1 fin boxes it can be ridden as anything from glidey single fin, 2+1 or loosen up the tail and get maximum rail to rail drive from a quad. The centre fin box is best suited for ROAM longboard fins, FCS screw and plate longboard fins and Futures longboard fins.
OVERVIEW
ACT PRE-PREG Torq ACT surfboards are the world’s first EPS/Epoxy Pre-Preg surfboards. The technological advantages are immense, but the most significant advantage is a 100% controlled process with ZERO surplus resin. On any surfboard, the resin’s function is to hold the fibre in place. It offers little structural integrity of its own, little flex and little impact strength. As a material without fibre, it is heavy and brittle. Any surplus resin is dead weight – resisting flex, adding weight.
WHAT IS PRE-PREG? Pre-Preg means the glass fibre weave is pre-impregnated with resin and hardener (kept cold to prevent curing). The fibre resin material is called a Pre-Preg matrix which is cured under high pressure and high temperature in a fully controlled environment. This ‘baking process results in the strongest form of laminate. These are next level surfboards.
THE RESULT Greatest strength to weight ratio. Typically, strong boards are heavy and light boards are weak (or stron and light boards are very expensive). Torq ACT boards have a super strong 6oz+4oz lay up on deck and bottom with an extra 6oz deck patch but they weigh around the same as a light glassed PU board. Most importantly, they respond better. The feel of these boards is like no other surfboard – they are incredibly responsive. The unhindered flex and zero dead weight means all of the energy that you put through your feet is delivered into the turn with none of the ‘deadening’ effect from the resin.
FLEX / RE-FLEX The idea of flex in surfboard performance is really only half of the picture. Flex is easy to achieve and represents the loss of energy rather than the return of it. The important aspect of flex is re-flex; the ability of a material to return to its shape; releasing the energy stored when flexed. Torq ACTs have a naturally unhindered flex due to the Pre-Preg materials which ensure no surplus resin, so the laminated fibre is able to perform with maximum efficiency. When pushed into a turn they have a natural rebound that projects and generates speed. We have enhanced the re-flex strips of uni-directional, non-woven carbon fibre, the strongest form of carbon fibre, which has a much higher reflex rate. The board feels powerful underfoot and re-bound out of turns – lively and lightning fast.
