The popular Surftech Scorpion, also a mini-longboard.
Although it's a Scorpion, it's a model that incorporates arrangements to the model that Mr. Takayama himself rode in the 70s.

The board features a modern classical egg shape, a wide down nose, medium rails with added thickness, and a bottom that goes from nose concave to flat V to V bottom, with a unique wide pintail. The rocker is set gently at both the nose and tail, and it comes with a 5-fin setup. This is a Surftech Tuflite molded board.

The wide and voluminous board design, combined with its hollow construction, generates even more buoyancy. This, along with the moderate board rocker, allows for exceptional take-off speed from small swells and provides outstanding acceleration and trim stability. The Tuflite construction also achieves a lightweight design, while the pintail allows for smooth rail transitions. The multi-fin setup offers versatility: a single stabilizer setup provides powerful drive for aggressive maneuvers, and a quad setup allows for light, smooth, and speedy lines. This magic board, capable of nose riding, offers a wide range of surfing styles in one board. It's also recommended for longboarders considering a shorter board!

Board Condition
There are minor paint chips, and one spot requires repair. This damage occurred when the board fell over while propped up on land, and there is no water ingress. Strong waterproof tape has been applied but has not been used in the ocean since.
