Aipa The Dark Horse DualCore Futures - Shortboard Surfboard

The AIPA The Dark Horse is the worthy successor to the legendary Dark Twinn.

Designed by Duke Aipa to push the limits of the traditional twin fin, it features a quad setup to deliver more control, stability and hold in more powerful waves. Its rearward wing optimizes pressure distribution and makes the board super responsive through rail to rail transitions. Whether the waves are small, hollow or well overhead, the Dark Horse keeps that smooth, fast glide AIPA is known for while bringing a new level of solidity and confidence.

A hybrid board that combines the freedom of a twin with the precision of a high performance shortboard.
