McKee Jack Rabbit XL

The Performance Crossover

The Jack Rabbit XL evolved from the original Jack Rabbit, one of the most popular and versatile boards in the ECS range.

Its longboard version keeps the speed-producing ideas that made the original so enjoyable, including a distinctive quad-concave influence, while adding the paddle power and glide of a longer board.

The 7'6 and 8'0 work as high-volume performance mid-lengths. The 9'1 delivers genuine performance-longboard capability with additional glide and nose-riding potential.

Who Is the Jack Rabbit XL For?

The Jack Rabbit XL is a great choice if you:

• Are moving from shortboards to longer boards but still want performance
• Want more paddle power without riding a traditional log
• Prefer carving, driving turns and hitting sections
• Want a fast board for smaller or softer waves
• Enjoy changing between quad and centre-fin configurations
• Are an intermediate to advanced surfer who surfs actively

The JRXL is less suited to complete beginners or surfers wanting a slow, traditional logging feel.

How Does It Ride?

The Jack Rabbit XL feels fast, light and responsive.

Its centre-bending rocker generates speed and drive when surfed from the tail. Moving forward, that same curve helps control the board and keeps it positioned in the pocket.

A concave tail helps lock the tail into the wave face, improving hold when riding forward and making nose riding more secure than you might expect from such a performance-oriented design.

The carbon sandwich PVC stringer creates strength with a lively flex pattern, helping the board accelerate and project out of turns rather than feeling heavy or flat.

Which Size Should I Choose?

7'6 — 7'6 x 21 3/4 x 2 3/4 — 52L

The most compact and responsive option. Best for experienced surfers wanting mid-length paddle power with a fast, performance-oriented feel.

8'0 — 8'0 x 22 x 2 3/4 — 56L

The versatile crossover size. Best for surfers wanting more glide and stability than the 7'6 while retaining excellent manoeuvrability.

9'1 — 9'1 x 22 x 2 13/16 — 65L

The true performance longboard. Best for maximum paddle power, longer-board glide and surfers who still want to turn hard and surf actively.
