DEAD KOOKS GUERRERO - 9' 6"
9’ 6” x 23 1/8” x 3”
“A board that was a long time coming. I've been making boards for CJ for a while now following on from some trips and time spent together through Japan, California and Australia. CJ is one of the most dialled in guys when it comes to design and detail and I loved making him boards because of the level of feedback he was always able to give, really honing in on small details and tweaks he wanted. Anyway that led us to a point last year where we were having a chat and he wanted something different for the Duct Tape and Mexi-Log fest events. That was the Guerrero.”
Single Side tint with a full Gloss & Polish finish on a stunning Balsa and Dark Wood blank
The Guerrero model is something fresh and exciting. Starting with the rocker used in the Dead Kooks Nausea model we added some extra lift in the front end giving a nice clean and consistent rocker curve providing hold on the nose, stable and fast trim from a forward position and precise control and drive from the rear.
The outline is a nod to some late 60's Australian favourites, pulling in the ears out front and carrying width just behind center providing a nice hip. There is a pretty serious amount of concave that runs through the front third of the board, narrow and blended into the belly as it runs out into the rest of the board.
The rails are a noticeably a little lower more a 60/40 running into a panelled V section leading into the fin with a dash of edge for control, direct feel under foot and a little flair.
