ACSOD Blue Lotus Surfboard

Introducing the ACSOD Fox Tail. The first mid-length in the ACSOD lineup. Birthed as an extension of our popular Fox model. 

Keeping the Gold Coast's point breaks in mind, the Fox Tail took all the favourite attributes of the original Fox and stretched them out for a more drawn-out approach.

The extra length maximises your paddle power to easily battle the sweep and catch waves early.

Once up and riding, you'll find yourself trimming with a ton of speed due to the straight outline and flat rocker. A vee bottom counteracts this to maintain a balanced rail-to-rail roll. Allowing for a fast, fluid and smooth approach. 

OUTLINE

From nose to tail runs a parallel outline. This plan shape allows for maximum drive and speed.

ROCKER

The rocker is a low, continuous curve throughout the board. Great for planning over flat sections and maintaining speed.

BOTTOM SHAPE

A vee bottom gradually increases as it reaches the tail with a slight vee/double between the fins. The vee lifts the rail rocker, counteracting the flat rocker and straight outline for a smooth rail-to-rail roll. The sight vee/double between the fins adds control and extra squirt when applying pressure on the back foot.

RAILS

Medium/boxy down rails engage and allow for hold through maneuvers.

About Alex Crews Surfboards (ACSOD):

Surfing and surfboards have always been a way of my life. It began with my Dad, who has been making boards for as long as I can remember. From the age of ten, I would sit at the door and watch him shape, glass and sand boards in a tin shed out the back of our house. Being so in love with the process, it was only natural I got on the planer and learned myself. After that first surf on that first board, I knew this was all I wanted to do: make surfboards and surf them. The feeling of riding something you have made with your own hands is truly amazing.

My brother Mitch is now a full-time team rider and test pilot, helping push my designs to the next level. While my dream is to one day become the premiere shaper on the Gold Coast and further this region’s reputation as the mecca of board design and craftsmanship.
