DHD Phoenix EPS Swallow 5'10" Futures Surfboard

The DHD Phoenix EPS Swallow Tail Surfboard is an even faster, looser, and more playful evolution of the popular Phoenix model, featuring a Swallow Tail design that delivers extra speed, drive, and hold compared to the standard Phoenix. Built for surfers looking to maximize performance in everyday small-to-medium surf, this version combines instant acceleration, easy paddling, and an incredibly lively feel under the feet. Now available in the latest Stringered EPS Epoxy construction from DHD, the Phoenix Swallow Tail combines lightweight EPS foam with a traditional timber stringer and advanced 160G BioX fiberglass cloth. This construction creates a board that feels stronger, more responsive, and more stable while maintaining the explosive speed, pop, and lively feel that modern EPS boards are known for. The timber stringer helps reduce chatter and improves control in choppy or more demanding conditions, while the EPS core delivers fast acceleration and effortless speed generation even in weaker waves. The flatter entry rocker combined with the single to double concave creates easy speed and smooth flow through flatter sections. The standout feature of this version is the Swallow Tail, which increases surface area and improves hold and drive through turns, giving the board a fast, skatey, and highly playful feeling without sacrificing control when the waves become more powerful. Medium to low rails provide quick and responsive rail-to-rail transitions, making the board ideal for progressive surfing in waves from 1ft to 4ft. The Phoenix EPS Swallow Tail can be ridden as a Thruster for a more balanced and controlled feel or as a Quad for additional speed and hold through faster sections. The construction also features White Carbon Innegra Toe Patches and Tiger Claws reinforcements for added strength and durability without compromising natural flex and responsiveness. Compatible with FCS II and Futures fin systems.
