The 2026 Phase 5 Ahi, designed by John Akerman, is a complete “ocean” style surfboard that delivers true wakesurf performance. The design features a moon tail shape, wide midsection, and a fully rounded pin nose for a perfect blend of handling and performance. The Ahi’s outline delivers more speed and drive down the line while channeling water flow off the tips of its tail for optimal release. Constructed with the elite Flightlite V2™ Pro Select layup, the Ahi offers a lightweight yet durable platform with a 20% weight reduction. Equipped with a Quad FCS Fusion fin setup, the Ahi provides control and responsiveness needed for aggressive surf-style shredding.
