“I WAS ALWAYS LOOKING FOR THE NEXT WAVE...THE NEXT MOVE” - BEN AIPA

A …lost classic

"To launch the STING collaboration between ...lost and Aipa, we chose two longstanding, popular models, to inject the STING. Working side by side with Duke, we built these two unique spins on a pair of well known faves...The Sub Scorcher and The Puddle Jumper. We approached every detail, from the obvious outline adjustments and introduction of the STING, to the rocker, foil, fin placement and of course, graphic presentation, with painstaking detail. Creating radical new possibilities, by incorporating the iconic STING into a pair of proven performers."

INTRODUCING...

THE MODERN SWALLOW

While everyone is chasing each other doing squash tail thrusters…We are focusing on our roots as Hawaiian designer/shapers, so what better way then to start back at the beginning, at the precipice of high performance surfing,when Ben Aipa’s innovations were creating change in surfing. As the precursor to the invention of the STING, The Swallow tail from 1972 was one of the most pivotal high performance board designs in surf history. The Modern Swallow is the first model from the AIPA: DESCENDANTS line and carries Bens original Swallow tail design forward into the future with Duke's modern adjustments.

THE AHI TWIN | BY DUKE AIPA

The Ahi Twin is a performance oriented upright twin, designed by Duke Aipa, for his Dark Twinn model as well as other high performance twins and twinnies. The wide base provides loads of drive and the upright template and refined tip provide increased maneuverability over more classic twin fin outlines. These fins are ideal for increased speed and fluid rail to rail transitions.
