Torq ACT PG-R Surfboard
A BOARD THAT TURNS AVERAGE INTO EXCELLENT.
The PG-R the most important board in your quiver. It's the board you'll surf 80% of the time in less than stellar waves so it needs to be excellent.
It's a board we designed to handle average, everyday surf. It's fast with easy paddling and pick up, with elements of the Comp model for performance and the Summer 5 for speed and stoke. In short the model was intended to be our Performance Groveller able to skate over the flats but capable in critical sections.
The unexpected by-product is a board that lends itself to progression. It's stable and reassuring so you have the confidence to push harder. It generates and carries speed that converts into big turns or airs. You can lay it on a rail and it gives back tenfold. It's a board that lets you up your game, no matter the conditions.
The PG-R is a board that turns average into excellent.
Construction
Torq ACT surfboards are the world's first EPS/Epoxy Pre-Preg surfboards. The technological advantages are immense, but the most significant advantage is 100% controlled process with ZERO surplus resin.
On any surfboard the resin's function is to hold the fiber in place. It offers little structural integrity of itƒ??s own, little flex and little impact strength. As a material without the fiber it is heavy and brittle. Any surplus resin is dead weight - resisting flex, adding weight.
With Pre-Preg process the perfect amount of resin is added to the cloth by machine, before the shaped blank is laid up - zero surplus, zero dead weight.
Usually you can have strength, light weight or a good price. In ACT, you can have all three.
ACT boards have a super strong 2 x 4oz + Bamboo reinforcement on the deck and a 6oz + 4oz lay-up on the bottom, but they weigh around the same as a light glassed PU board.
Most importantly; they respond better. The feel of these boards is like no other surfboard - they are incredibly responsive. The unhindered flex and zero dead weight means all of the energy that you put through your feet is delivered into the turn with none of the deadening effect from the resin.
