Bob Simmons' Legacy Revisited by Jeff McCallum
Jeff McCallum's Mini Simmons is a modern tribute to the revolutionary work of Bob Simmons, a pioneer of hydrodynamic designs in the 1940s-50s. This short, wide board offers fast glide and exceptional maneuverability, particularly suited for gentle waves and surfers seeking a fluid style.
Technical Characteristics of the Mini Simmons McCallum
Jeff McCallum has perfected this design by creating boards in the 5'1" x 22 1/4" x 2 7/8" range, optimized for surfers weighing 75-185 lbs.
Mini Simmons Design Philosophy
Unlike traditional fish boards that become difficult to maneuver when extended in length, McCallum's Mini Simmons maintains its maneuverability due to its compact design. This approach allows medium to large surfers to enjoy the characteristics of a fish without the drawbacks of excessive tracking.
