DarkNoiz

Ethan Ewing's winning weapon in the 2026 Stab In The Dark, the DarkNoiz is Haydenshapes' most refined round-tail performance shortboard — built for control, speed and flow in waves from 3 to 12ft. The round tail keeps you locked through longer arcs and powerful sections, drawing clean, committed turns without bleeding speed. A fast, decades-tuned rockerline with its lowest point set just behind centre carries drive through your stance while releasing quick off the tail. Underneath, a rolled-vee entry flows into single concave, into double through the fins, finishing with a vee-double out the tail for fast acceleration and seamless rail-to-rail transitions. Finely balanced rails hold confidently at speed yet stay loose enough to go vertical on demand.
