The Pyzel The Grom Shadow is a high-performance shortboard designed as a refined addition to the Ghost family. It's based on the Phantom model but features a shifted outline and rocker for increased maneuverability and a more responsive feel. Key design changes include moving the wide point back towards the center, narrowing the nose, and increasing the nose rocker. This modification provides more freedom in turns and allows for tighter surfing in the pocket of the wave. The tail block is also narrowed, contributing to a snappy and responsive feel. The bottom contours and rocker through the midsection remain similar to the Phantom, ensuring versatility in a range of conditions, from weaker waves to good surf. Team riders have reportedly had excellent feedback on this board. The Grom Shadow is best suited for intermediate to advanced surfers looking for a rippable, high-performance board that offers a more traditional narrow-nosed outline and exceptional maneuverability. Its strengths lie in its agility and responsiveness, making it ideal for performance surfing.
