Jim's built this board to have the hold and control of a thruster with all the speed and glide of a twin fin, the Magic Carpet is a design that makes any style of surfing easy.
The outstanding control and drive of the long base twin keel fins, combined with the finely tuned rocker and bottom contours will hold onto the steepest faces and carve the hardest of turns.
Jim says:- 'The full length vee has turned out to be a fantastic marriage of a concave and a vee that performs better than any other bottom configuration that I’ve ever tried in my almost 50 years of shaping boards. Regardless of whether the waves are 2 feet or 20 feet.’

This is what Jim himself says about the FLV (Full length Vee) Magic Carpet:-
"These are not a retro design! With now more than 3000 hours and 12 years of development behind them, these are finely tuned, high performance surfboards... that are also very easy to surf!
Because these boards already produced so much speed, a lot of my development focus has been on improving manoeuvrability. So that they could really carve larger, more open faces, and still hold their line in tight turns.
What surprised me during this process, was how these boards became even faster. If these are not the fastest boards on the planet, they're certainly the fastest board that my customers and I have surfed.
When you get going on one of these, you will find yourself flying through sections effortlessly, usually to the amazement of everyone else in the water.
The low entry rocker of this design gives you outstanding glide and paddle power, while the slightly fuller outline and even tail rocker performs the sweetest, smoothest turns in any size wave.
The recent addition of my unique FLV bottom contour was a major breakthrough. It substantially enhanced the overall speed, manoeuvrability and responsiveness of the design, including making the board feel even friendlier under the feet than previous models.
So, don't make the mistake of confusing this with some sort of retro 70's style design, these are highly refined, high performance surfboard that will truly surprise you with just how well its surfs."
