McKee Byron Twin
Anyone who has surfed ‘The Pass’ in Byron Bay knows how important speed and pivot are in a board. There are days when the walls are speedy and days when endless cutbacks are required; depending on swell direction.
Maybe it's long fast lefts at ’Tallows’, or maybe ‘Wategos’ is on with its peaky walls and local lineup of dolphins... When you're riding the Byron Twin, laying into some vertical climbs or big whooping roundhouse turns is child’s play.
The McKee Byron Twin is smooth
The Byron fish has a deep Vee tail with heavy double concave. That is the speed mix that takes the squirrel out of the twin. This combined with a straight tail rail section with deep fishtail lets you drive long secure carves off the bottom plus will free the tail up for that lip carve or snap.
The pronounced wide point of the outline also helps to draw the nose around and keeps it flowing. The bottom nose entry is low and contoured with an upward roll near the rail, and a concave in the center that extends to the boards' midsection. This gives lift, speed, and a catch-free performance.
The rails are a low/mid profile that slices through any side chop on the face. In all, The Byron Twin is very versatile and perfect for those wanting a loose, fluid, and free feel perfectly suited to Byron waves. The board comes complete with hand-foiled fiberglass Keel fins.
