The 17 foot redwood olo surfboard at the Main Beach, Mount Maunganui.. . . the 17 is a remarkably agile board for its size. Enormous power is contained in ocean waves, even in the gentle swells shown here. The 17 foot olo board is able to tap into more of that power, which gives the rider more drive, speed, and gliding momentum.
The feeling is akin to riding a larger wave, as the rider uses greater strength and has a greater driving force.
Thus the superior length and weight of the olo board completely transforms small wave riding into another vastly satisfying plane of experience.
