The Trident is designed for the big guy on the boat. Sporting a full outline with a bat tail- the Trident delivers a fast and responsive board for larger riders. It’s a fun, easy board to ride if you have the weight to control it. We do not recommend it for lighter riders. The Trident is glassed with our Carbon Innegra Vertical glass that gives the board a sporty look and offers superior strength. It’s tri-fin skim fin setup can be configured in a variety of different positions to best suit what the rider needs. To learn more about the Trident check out our Trident and Model X comparison page.
