Stable and reliable. You can trust this one when the waves are heavy. Paddles well through strong currents and wind and gets you in early. Chargers only!
Description
EASY RIDING “HYBRID STEP UP”
The “Sabo-Taj” is the result of ongoing design development between Taj Burrow and Matt Biolos. Meant to perform in the widest range of conditions by minimalistic means and be a one board travel weapon for Taj. The Sabo-Taj is equally at home in powerful Indo reef waves, punchy beach breaks, compact slabs, lined up points and energized waves of any kind.
“After years of building travel boards for quality waves I feel like this is thebest one yet” - Matt Biolos.
The outline features a wider than average nose with enough area under foot to be surfed fast and radical in everyday waves while the narrow tail tip holds in solid surf and barrels. The nose rocker is modest for speed and drive and the tail rocker has plenty of curve for tight radius whip and control. A slight concave between the feet adds lift but zeros out in the nose to keep things catch free and a mild double concave cuts through the tail rocker adding speed and drive. This board screams take me to Mexico or Indo all summer, Hatteras and Europe in the fall, Hawaii all winter and doesn’t mind staying close to home if it's pumping. Let’s go!

THE step up shape!!
6'6" for bigger days, was skeptical with this much volume, but the board DELIVERS in pumping surf. It's a stable gnarly arrow for big water days. Needs power and speed to move off the rear pivot, but man, what an incredible design to have in the LibLost lineup. LOVE the feel of this board. LOVE the rail line. My big wave lifesaver!!

Where’s it at?
Been wanting a lib step up forever. But.. the shops that carry libs don’t have these!

Smoooth
Only a few days on it, but can say this...crazy good paddler. I had one of the original lib techs same volume, and longer, but paddled like a dog. This board can run down anything, does not plow like a shortboard typically does. Mine is more volume than my normal shortboard (driver 2.0) but its not very maneuverable compared to that board. Feels more like a step up meant for chasing down waves and getting into them, but not surfing top to bottom. If I have any criticism I feels a bit sluggish turning, more of a carving board even though thr description says it has a whippy tail. I dont enjoy it much an under head high, but it gives a lot if confidence when uts bigger than that

Wow
Love the bigger dems... now where are they available?
