BOS Widowmaker Surfboard 6ft 10 FCS - Green

The Widowmaker in shorter lengths is a great pocket-rocket tube rider and good wave shortboard alternative.

In longer lengths it works as a high performance midlength or alternative step up.

The Widowmaker works in a good variety of wave types and wave sizes, and the fin set up is what really makes it highly functional.

We find a 6.75" centre fin is great all rounder and then we switch to a 6.5" centre for bigger surf or a 7.0" for smaller surf.

The really neat thing we find with the Widowmaker is you can dial the fins in for a lot of different waves/conditions which makes it a versatile beast.

For tighter arcs we move the centre fin up in line with the side fins, this tighter cluster creates a more responsive feel under foot but reduces the size of the sweet spot and moves it forward so its better suited for smaller waves.

Then for longer, drawn-out lines on larger waves, we pull the centre fin back in the box to spread things out a bit more with a wider sweet spot you can really jam into.

The Widowmaker - was Hugh Brockman's take on Dave Parmenter's Widowmaker fin set up. Hugh's version is essentially a 70’s single fin inspired outline, modernised with different bottom contours and fins (We don't recommend riding as a single fin - WE FORBID THIS).

We find the Widowmaker set up provides all the benefits of riding a single fin but with the added snap and bite of the side fins. Appropriate for small(ish) waves to well over head waves, the Widow is a favourite with everyone that rides it.

The front half is fairly forgiving and the rear half is a lot more refined and tuned in.
