SHAPE / DESIGN
A radical stab, creating an alternative to the Thruster. The Drifta Series it’s width and emphasis on skating speed pre-dated the revival of fish-style boards in the late 90’s.
Main features include: an updated classic single-to-double concave, running a decade ahead of the Performance School. Fluted and pinched wings, stepping down to a stubby swallow, or, chopped square tail, a round nose and mini side-fins, giving the Drifta it’s almost spaceship-like appearance. A 7 1/2” wide-based single fin completed the revolution to hotdog happiness. Driftas hide a typically uncompromising design capable of extraordinary down-the-line speed combined with the ability to break tracks (vertical or horizontal).
Truly a board about transition, from singles to tri-fins. From speed to advanced modern performance surfing.
SIZE RANGE
DIII 5’8 - 6’8 / XL 6’10 - 7’4
FINISH & SPRAYS
Handsprayed air brushing by Martyn Worthington since 1972. Martyn’s talents are often described as "psychedelic" but always remain true to their surf/art roots. Select either:
FADE: Top and Bottom of the board with colours fading from the rail to centres, glossed and polished to accentuate colour.
MURALS: Airbrushed on the bottom of the board with faded rails and deck, glossed and polished to accentuate colour. Martyn prefers to incorporate individual designs into his artwork so feel free to email your design themes for Martyn’s interpretation & choice of rail and deck colours.
Refer to spray examples.
