The Fingal Flyer is a slightly refined version of the Alley Slider with a little more nose rocker and slightly more pinched rails. These refinements allow it to be surfed on a beach break a little more easily as the added rocker will make take offs a little more achievable. But nose riding is not sacrificed and turns are a breeze with the added V through the tail. Thinned out it is a great board for the ladies to slide and glide gracefully.
