8-0 Secret Weapon
by Steve Boehne

I started making this model around the time that I turned 40. I had gained about 15 lb. and didn’t have time to surf as much, but I still surfed good as ever (so I thought). I loved that “off the bottom and straight up the face” surfing style that you can only get on an 8’ board, but I just needed more floatation and “wave catchability”, so I started making my “fun” boards 3.75” thick. Soon my friends and customers were ordering these boards and the Secret Weapon model was born in 1988. In the early 90’s we discovered the powerful “Cluster” tri fin set up which gave the Secret Weapon even better performance. This board offers stunning performance with nearly indestructible construction. It is an outstanding worry-free travel board.
