SMOOTHSTAR BARRACUDA
The Barracuda (blue) complete surfskate surf trainer is designed for young surfing groms up to max height 135cm. It is a super responsive, tight turning, take anywhere surf carving machine. But don't let its size fool you. It's one serious surf training tool designed for younger kids wanting to progress and refine their technique, especially when the waves decide to go on holiday!
The Barracuda's wheelbase is the smallest of all the complete SmoothStar adult models. It is the entry point of all the Thruster board series. The Barracuda is specifically designed for young surfers. It’s a super responsive, take it anywhere, mini board. The Barracuda is one of the most compact boards of the SmoothStar range, making it easy to carry and transport. If you have another SmoothStar Thruster, you can fit it easily to this deck.
The Barracuda is designed for a younger child where their feet are much smaller. This means you don't need the excessive width that the Flying Fish has as the Flying Fish is designed for groms to teenagers who have bigger feet. The Barracuda deck width matches perfectly with the average foot size of a smaller child.
Sometimes people think that the Flying Fish turns more but this is mainly due to the extra width of the Flying Fish which enables kids to lean a bit more into thier turns. With the smaller size of the Barracuda, the rider is not moving their feet around which means they can ride the board in the same stance without moving their feet.
