Simply put, the eGG Not is a squash tail, narrower nose version of Rusty Surfboards' model the eGG. With the increasing popularity of mid-size boards, Rusty decided it was more or less a given that he offers a squash tail version of the eGG. The Squash tail adds a little more area, lengthens the rail line, and has a more pivoty feel compared to a roundtail. The Egg Not is a great board to have in your quiver. When the surf is average, you’ll have plenty of wave catching ability and it will carry through sections but the board will still be loose enough to turn with ease. As a plus, when the surf gets a bit bigger, it still works surprisingly well! The Egg Not features a relaxed rocker on the front end of the board which helps with paddle speed, wave catching, and overall glide. The curve is a bit above average which translates to helping tighten the arc of your turns without giving up speed. The thickness of the board is a little on the thin side for a board this size. These leaner rails make the board easier to put in the water and also helps it hold better in bigger surf. Fin setup here is your call. For a higher performance feel we recommend a 4-fin setup. If you’re looking for something a little cruisier or more traditional feel do a 2 plus one setup.

OUTLINE

Moderate width in the center. The nose in just over 15 inches. The tail is just under 15. The tail block, one inch up is approximately 7". The Squash tail adds a little more area, lengthens the rail line, and has a more pivoty feel compared to a round tail. The tail outline is curvy - clean and smooth; helps to tighten the arc of your turns without giving up speed. The slightly narrower/pointed nose helps with performance without giving up paddle power.

ROCKER

On the front end is pretty relaxed. Helps with paddle speed, wave catching, and overall glide. Back in the business zone, the curve is a bit above average, yet subtle. Clean, smooth, no breaks, but plenty. It helps to tighten the arc of your turns without giving up speed.

BOTTOM

Entry is almost flat. A little release out towards the rails. In the mid section, on the shorter boards there is a light single that blends into a subtle double vee that peaks about 2 feet up. Backs off to a very light break between and after the fins. On bigger boards, app 21.75 and wider, the bottom becomes slightly more convex.

THICNESS

A little on the thin side for a board this size. Leaner rails. Easier to put in the water. Holds better in bigger surf.

FINS

It's your call. For a higher performance feel we'd recommend 4. For a cruisier, more traditional feel, 2+1 or single. It's a great board to have in your quiver.
