It features a &#8220;freedom of choice&#8221; five-box fin system, a concave deck and grab rails for better edge grip. It comes in lengths from 5&#8217;5&#8243; to 6&#8217;3&#8243;. The Air E Ola is a durable, environmentally friendly, performance shortboard that will change your surfing life. For real.
