INFINITY /// \\\ SUP 2017



SHAPING THE FUTURE OF SUP Dana Point is widely considered the SUP capital of the world and Infinity has been lucky enough to be in the mix since the beginning. Steve Boehne, founder of Infinity Surfboards was one of the very first shapers to offer SUP boards to the public in 2004. Infinity specializes in high end - high performance SUP designs for both Surf and Race. We do not make boards for fishing or boards for Yoga. That’s not what we do. We are here to make the most progressive and fastest boards on the water. Our passion lies in the process of making riders get better and reach their potential and find that podium all while having the most fun.

Every board is designed in California by Steve and Dave Boehne true craftsmen and board building experience since 1960. We love what we do and it shows through our product and friends.

SEE YOU ON THE PODIUM #PADDLELIKEAFREAK



PERFORMANCE

SURF

Infinity is known for our custom performance designs. We are proud to offer some of our most versatile and popular shapes in top of the line Carbon SUPspensionTech construction. Extremely durable, light, and still has that custom flex in the ride. These look and feel like our custom shapes.




B-LINE This is the Giorgio Gomez signature design. Giorgio and Dave Boehne worked together on this design throughout the 2015 / 2016 competition season. The BLine takes the razor sharp shredding from the Blurr and borrows stability characteristics from the RNB to make up a fast, explosive, tour level ride. The nose is slightly wider than the Blurr and still comes to a point. The outline keeps linear for added stability and we break that at the fins with a wing for great pivot off the bottom. The BLine has a slightly more relaxed rocker in the front end making it very fast and added flip in the tail rocker for release when you want it.

RNB The Round Nose Blurr is one of our most popular performance surf designs of all time. Perfect blend of performance vs stability and a noticeably FAST board. This design bridges the gap between a traditional “shortboard” style outline and the “tomo” inspired parallel rail boards. This board allows riders to ride a shorter and narrower board while maintaining similar stability of a board 1-2” wider.

NEW DEAL For us, SUP all began with these longboard performance surf designs. We like to mix it up off the tail and get traditional off the nose. The New Deal is a performance longboard shape with a thin rail and concave like a shortboard underneath. Make no mistake these board are not cruiser boards they are performance tuned shred machines. Fast and responsive off the tail and locked in nose rides on the front. Multiple widths to accomodate surfers of all sizes. The SUP longboard revolution is coming!

PERFORMANCE

RACE

Our race boards are designed by Dave Boehne and tested by some of the worlds best. We are dedicated to progressing race design and helping riders reach their potential. With that mission in mind, we work year round on race boards before we are ready to deem them production worthy. Our Carbon “skin� construction is top notch and we take the extra effort with the details in designing the traction, handles, and finish. We are the only board brand to offer twin fin option in production. These boards are meant to look and ride like our custom shapes.




WHIPLASH We design our race boards with “all around” performance in mind. With that said, The Whiplash has been a staple in our line and continues to get better and better. With the new 2017 Whiplash we’ve kept the same fast rocker but gave a big update to the volume distribution and bottom contour. The new Whiplash is more stable than ever before and is our all-around work horse. The outline has a linear mid section adding stability and the nose has been designed with even more volume to combat chop, wind, and wash better than ever.

Candice Appleby rode the Whiplash to victory at the 2015 Pacific Paddle Games as well as the US Open of SUP not to mention she is the 2015 World Champion. Choose this board if you paddle mostly flat water with a mix of ocean or choppy conditions, if you like more of a traditional displacement shape and glide, and want to find the podium.

BLACKFISH The 2017 Blackfish is Dave Boehne’s latest Bob Simmons inspired planing hull design that is taking the race world by storm. World Champion Candice Appleby, Slater Trout and Aussie stud Toby Cracknell all race this board in all conditions. Originally intended as an ocean racer because of it’s superior stability at narrow widths, it has proven to hang in the flat water stuff as well. 2017 received a rounder sweet spot adding flat water glide while maintaining the badass Blackfish DNA. Even more volume added in the nose as well the channel in the bottom became more significant specifically directing water out the back release. The planning hull rides on top of the water rather than parting it away like a displacement hull. This makes for very fast get up and go and higher max sprint speeds. “Like skipping a stone”. The linear outline gives it a stability advantage and the rolled nose entry make it very forgiving and versatile in a number of conditions: through surf, up and down wind, chop, etc. Choose this board if you want to get max stability, sprint faster than ever before, and Paddle Like a Freak when the elements are ugly.

“It started from our twin fin Phoenix surf SUP’s we make and my love of twin fins. We were blown away by the speed created on these boards. Why not twin fins on raceboards? Stoked to work with Larry and super excited to be the first brand to offer this set up full on in production. If you don’t see these fins popping up on other brands soon I will be very surprised. You have to try it for yourself.” – Dave Boehne


THE REVOLUTION IS HERE

TWIN2WIN Dave Boehne has been working tirelessly with Larry Allison on this concept and are proud to offer Allison twin fin option and ProBox fins systems on all Infinity race boards. Adding the probox twins and front ventral option gives your Infinity unmatched customization and limitless versatility. You can ride your board as a traditional single fin, twin, or thruster all with or without a front ventral fin. And when the boxes are not in use we have custom “floater” plugs that sit in the box for no drag. The concept is simple. Shallower fins for quicker release and responsive “get up and go” feel per stroke. You can add the front ventral for incredible tracking and added projection. The third fin thruster option adds extra shallow area for added traction. Sprint faster, glide longer, with less effort. Simply put it’s the most simplest way to add Horse Power, tracking, and stability to your board. Everyone can benefit from this concept from Elite racers looking for custom ride advantages in different conditions to everyday paddlers looking for ultimate versatility. Why limit your board to a single option? Feel the difference. Key advantages: • • • • • •

Shallower fins means less drag and quicker get up and go. Smaller Multi fins adds same surface area as 1 traditional single fin but with less drag. Twins force water to the center of the board adding lift and enhancing forward tracking. Twins projecting from the rail adds stability from side to side. Front ventral adds unbelievable tracking and stability in side chop, swell, and cross wind.
