Meet the Dominator Pro in Helium Technology by Dan Mann (@dan__mann), the shortboard that fans of the Dominator have been asking Dan to build for years, designed to go toe to toe with your favorite performance shortboard.
The all-new Dominator Pro shape is designed for surfers who have either progressed their skill set and want a more performance version of the Dominator 2.0, or just want a more refined version of the Dominator 2.0 for surf trips, or good days at home.
The rocker on the Dominator Pro is true to the style of rocker on the original Dominator, but with a moderate increase in curve from nose to tail.The bottom contour's concave configuration is a near match of the Dominator 2.0’s concave, with slightly more single concave under the front foot in the Dominator Pro, flowing into a double barrel concave through the fins that transitions to a vee out the tip of the tail.
The Dominator Pro is a true performance all rounder suited to waves thigh high and above, all the way up into overhead and hollow surf, but does work well in a variety of conditions. It really comes alive in the chest-high and above range, and wants to sit tight in the pocket and be in punchy waves with some curve to them.
Pair the Firewire Velox Fin Set for the best performance - many of our riders love it as a Thruster, Dan prefers the Quad configuration.
