SHORT x THICK x WIDE x FAST x LOOSE

.
Like Casper, the White Pony is a Richard Kenvin design idea inspired by Bob Simmons. I got a chance to ride the first White Pony at AB3 last March and soon after put an order in with Kenvin/Swift Movement. White Pony #2, shown here, was shaped by Joe Bauguess.
.
Really fast, lots of glide, and responsive.

White Pony #2: 4'11". Though slightly thinner foam volume and shorter fin base, it's for the most part a replicate of Kenvin's original.
