Mega Fantum

This is a rodeo-centric design.  It's meant to excel at surfing and cartwheels. The Fantum is the first of the modern short surfing squirt designed by from Jim Snyder. Designed around a 28-32” inseam, it is more of a surface-oriented “hybrid” squirt design than the Hellbender . It features a wide, true planing hull with hard chines, a knee position spread farther apart than other designs, and minimal room in the foot area. Though not a mystery machine (it will sink, but tends to stall quickly and pop back to the surface), it has found favour with kayak surfers and amongst those who want a low-volume, hard-carving, super-loose and super-stiff surf/cartwheel machine for river use. A slightly larger cut will accommodate those purposes well, without the discomfort that characterizes similar designs.
