Owners Rating:

The CI 2.Pro, designed for ultimate performance, won the 2023 Stab in the Dark with Italo Ferreira. This board is ideal for punchy good waves, from waist-hight to double overhead. With a reduced rocker compared to its predecessor, the CI Pro, this board enhances speed and versatility. The subtle single concave transitioning to a slight double through the fins offers a connected feel and precise control. Suited for point, reef, and beach breaks, it excels in medium to steep strong waves. This board is perfect for intermediate to advanced surfers, offering a balanced performance for both vertical pocket surfing and powerful carving maneuvers.
