Surftech Rusty Piranha 5 Fin Surfboard - 2012
Yeah, so what if the waves are a bit on the small side. Grab the Surftech Rusty Piranha 5 Fin Surfboard and head to the beach for a fun, little session instead of sitting at home, bored in front of the boob tube. Designed by shaper, Rusty Preisendorfer, the Piranha tears up small, flatter waves and gives head-high surf a good thrashing, too.
- Flatter entry rocker with rounder outline (wider nose and tail) makes up for the short length of the board and allows you to rocket down the face and back up the lip
- A flatter deck makes the rails fuller for more buoyancy thus providing better performance in small, flatter waves
- Durable, strong, and lightweight Tuflite EPS (fused-cell) core with epoxy coating won't absorb water nearly as much as traditional polystyrene cores and helps prevent deck denting or pressure dings
- Five-fin design allows you to tune the board to the conditions of your preference and makes the most of bad conditions
- Surftech recommends you ride it six inches shorter than your performance shortboard
- A sweet board to learn on and bomber enough for advanced surfers to kill it
Bottom Line: Improve your surf with the Piranha and not the couch.
Leave your mark on The Wall.
Sick Board!

This board rips! I live in northern Japan so the swell is come and go and when it comes, we get days of well overhead powerful bowls that are just fast. This board handles anything you can throw at it. I can hold a rail when it's steep, and get phenomonal speed when it's small and mushy. Really nothing left to be said about this board but AMAZING!!! Don't worry about 5 fins either. Go with the quad setup like Slater and you won't be disappointed...mach speed. Get yourself some FCS Rusty R-2 Quad fins and you'll be unstoppable.
The ad says it is a five fin, but a reviewer says he received
The ad says it is a five fin, but a reviewer says he received a four fin . Ad has not been changed since the review , so how many fins does the board have. Also, anybody else receive their board damaged, besides the reviewer?

Awesome Board and shaper.... terrible condition upon arrival. Rails were both damage and had to repaint and epoxy because they apparently " did not have any in stock." Yet there is one available in the same size right now....hmmm... Also only comes with 4 fins while clearly labeled as 5. If you order a board from them, it will be damaged....
Yeah they do.
