The Granite Hand-Plane was the first to be developed in the range and is the most versatile and popular shape. It has a wide point forward of the handle that provides good flotation, a larger planing surface and easy entry into waves. The outline shape then tapers to a rounded diamond tail at the back of the hand-plane. This provides a sharper, more pivotal turning experience over a rounded tail. The rails are rounded at the front and smoothly blend into a hard edge release at the rear. The subtle front rocker prevents pearling and splash and the concave running through the base provides lift off the wave face. The fun and exhilaration of body-surfing is provided by the Granite Hand-plane creating a large planing surface under the palm of your hand. A great aesthetic all-rounder in and out of the water.
