In 2000, the original Pod became everyone's favorite virtually overnight.

The Pod Mod design is a completely redesigned Pod that is surfed even shorter and wider.
Specifically designed for the rider who wants even more volume without sacrificing performance.
To allow for proper planing in smaller waves, the tail has been widened and the previous single to double concave has been replaced with a flat entry to concave vee to allow for quick rail to rail transitions.

Experienced surfers should surf this board 3-6 inches shorter than their height.

With the 5 Future fin boxes, the board can be surfed as a quad or thruster.

TORQ X-LITE TECHNOLOGY
Torq X-Lite technology takes the already innovative epoxy construction to unimagined levels of weight and performance.
The core of the boards is made from a custom high precision EPS blank that is wrapped with biaxial fabric and epoxy resin. An additional layer of impact resistant protective mesh is applied to the deck of the X-Lite boards, distributing the pressure of impacts evenly across the surface to protect against dings and heel dents.
The underside features a torsionally stiff carbon strip that controls flex and makes the board incredibly responsive.
X-Lite construction stands out over traditional PU/polyester construction due to its more environmentally friendly production process and unmatched weight to durability ratio.
