The Shadow is the high performance shortboard of the Ghost family and already a favourite of John John Florence and the team. Jon started from the Phantom, a proven everyday board, and tuned it into a sharper, more performance driven design while keeping the extra flow and glide the Phantom is known for.
The wide point sits right at center, the nose is pulled in by about half an inch and extra rocker in the last 12 inches keeps it loose in critical turns. A subtle hip and a slightly narrower squash tail tighten the turning arc, and extra foam under the chest helps paddling and carries speed through slow sections. Ride it at your height or up to an inch longer. The Shadow XL brings the design to bigger sizes.
