The Aussie V, which marked the beginning of Roger Hinds’ career in the late 60’s, was a pivotal moment in the evolution of surfboard design. Hinds took the innovative approach of stripping down long boards and skillfully shaping them to create what would later be recognized as the iconic transition era style board. Notably, this board features a displacement hull bottom, which allows for efficient water displacement and enhanced speed. Additionally, the board boasts a distinctive steep V in the tail, contributing to its exceptional performance characteristics. As a result, the Aussie V offers riders an exhilarating experience, combining remarkable speed with a smooth and seamless ride.
