The DHD MF Eclipse is a small wave performance surfboard designed to maximize high-performance shortboard feel in weaker surf. Its design centers around generating speed and providing lively performance. Key features include a relatively full plan shape with a wide nose for paddle power and speed generation, balanced by a pointed shortboard-style nose that prevents catching in turns. The board has a flat rocker with a bit of nose lift to handle steeper sections and a single to double concave bottom for acceleration. A refined rolled deck and low rails are incorporated for drive and bite through turns. The tail features a diamond flyer design, a preference of Mick Fanning, which helps maintain width for speed while the diamond shape brings it in for maneuverability and bite. The fins are clustered tightly together, promoting drive and speed, and the board offers versatility with a 5-fin setup allowing for thruster, quad, or twin + trailer configurations. It is recommended for intermediate to advanced surfers looking for a fast, responsive board in small to medium waves, though it can handle slightly steeper conditions when set up appropriately. Its primary strength lies in its ability to generate speed and provide a lively feel in marginal conditions.
