The Aloha Stryka is the brainchild of former WCT surfer Richie Lovett and was designed to offer the feel and sensitivity of a regular short board with the added advantage of having extra stability. This model was personally tested and refined by Richie to ensure each criteria was satisfied. The result is a modern performance fish that is easy to ride and can be used by surfers of all experience levels from novice to pro level.

The theory behind the Stryka model from Aloha was to take features from a regular short board such as nose outline, rail volume and deeper concave and then add some more width through the centre and tail to create a more stable platform. An overall reduction in the rocker makes the board fast, even in substandard conditions while the deep concave maintains sensitivity and response when the board is traveling at high speeds. A flyer has been positioned behind the side fins to help offset the extra width and allows the board to release through turns.

This model will compliment any quiver and really capitalizes on the fun factor by combining the performance of a short board with the stability of a fish.

The Aloha Stryka comes with a tri-quad fin configuration allowing it to be set up as a thruster or a quad.
