Borrowing
its name from the 1960s Jacobs model, the “New Shape”
due to similarities in its conception, the modern-day Jacobs New
Shape model was designed when several team riders demanded a versatile
board, ideal for quick, challenging conditions and contest surfing.
Hap encountered this same request during the 60s and got together
with one of his shapers at the time, Rick Irons, and came up with
the original New Shape Model. Today’s New Shape utilizes a
shorter noserider blank, i.e. dimensions and rocker, to give you
glide and stability for noseriding but adds a round pintail, a 2+1
Jacobs signature fiberglass fin setup and a hard edge through the
tail for maneuverability and quick response. This board is ideal
for medium to big beach break or reef break. The New Shape is praised
as the most versatile board in the Jacobs line.
This board can be glassed with a resin tint or airbrushed for
a lighter more maneuverable board.
