hokori / iwashi
“sardine”
The Iwashi is based on the famous mini Simmons design by Bob Simmons. Though the smallest board and therefore called the “sardine” it is slightly longer than the average mini Simmons. The extra length is to make it glide and paddle easier. The wide square tail and double keel fin set up make for a fast board, while the double concave and slightly more length make deep turns fluent and very pleasurable.
Wood: red cedar, poplar
Dimensions: 5’4 21 3/4″ 2 1/2”
