The Hiku is engineered with a strong focus on enhanced stability and grip in the water. To achieve this, we made several key design changes: the blade offset was increased to 10.5 cm while preserving the same entry angle as the Broadbill, positioning the blade deeper into the power phase for a more effective catch. We also added a more pronounced V to the power face, ensuring a cleaner water split and greater overall stability. Paired with our new full composite shaft, the Hiku blade offers a balanced, high-performance combination.
Blade:
Width: 9.25"-9.5"
Length: 18.5"
Offset: 10.5cm
Shaft:
In designing our full composite shafts our goal was to create a shaft that is light weight, strong and with similar flex properties to a timber shaft. We are able to achieve this by controlling the percentage of carbon fibre and fibreglass in the shaft and also the orientation of the fibre weave. The result is consistent shaft weights and flex.
Construction:
Blade: epoxy, carbon fibre, fibreglass, pvc foam, reinforced carbon fibre edge
Shaft: epoxy, carbon fibre, fibreglass, pvc foam
