In 2000, the original Pod became everyone's favourite almost overnight.
The design of the Pod Mod is a completely revamped Pod that is ridden even shorter and wider.
Specifically designed for riders who want more volume without sacrificing performance.
To glide properly in small waves, the tail has been widened and the previous single to double concave has been replaced with a flat entry to concave vee to allow for quick rail-to-rail transitions.
Experienced surfers should ride this board 3 to 6 inches shorter than their height.
With the 5 Future fin boxes, the board can be ridden as a quad or a thruster.
TORQ X-LITE TECHNOLOGY
The Torq X-Lite technology allows the already innovative epoxy construction to achieve unimaginable levels of weight and performance.
The core of the boards consists of a high-precision EPS blank specifically designed for this purpose, covered with biaxial cloth and epoxy resin. On the deck of the X-Lite boards, an additional layer of sandwich wood is incorporated to evenly distribute impact pressure across the surface and protect against dings and heel dents.
The underside features a torsion-resistant carbon strip that controls the flex and makes the board incredibly responsive.
The X-Lite construction stands out from traditional PU/polyester construction with its more eco-friendly production process and unmatched strength-to-weight ratio.
