Compared to the rest of the FRK quiver, Dan worked to better distribute the volume directly beneath the surfer's stance, updated the outline and rocker profile, and worked with Kelly to amplify the effect of the outline in the back third of the board against the all-new rocker curves. This rail rocker through the back third of the board was specifically paired with a swallow tail to enable precise rail work uncommon in small wave shortboards. Each tip of the swallow tail enables hold beyond what a squash tail would allow when carving on rail, because of the surface area reduction in the last several inches of the board when compared to a squash tail.
Designed for waves 5 foot and under, Dan Mann designed the FRK Swallow to be the most versatile in performance in the FRK range. With an emphasis in better distributing the volume directly beneath the surfer's stance, the FRK Swallow excels at creating speed in flat, sticky sections, without sacrificing on-rail performance. Meant to be ridden 2" shorter than the FRK and 1" shorter than the FRK+. Despite Dan's original design intention to optimize the FRK Swallow for smaller waves, the team quickly validated its performance versatility in everything from knee-high T Street to well-overhead Oaxaca.
