Model Overview
The Virtue is a refined small-wave hybrid combining the proven flow of the Hypto Krypto with the agility of the Psychedelic Germ. Designed for playful 1–3ft conditions, it thrives in rip bowls, beach breaks, points and wave pools. It delivers effortless speed, smooth rail-to-rail transition and a tighter, more responsive feel in the pocket.
Built to paddle easily and surf intuitively, The Virtue generates speed naturally in softer waves while still allowing controlled release when you want to push harder. It’s designed to be ridden 1–2” shorter than your regular Hypto Krypto to unlock its lively, small wave performace.
SKILL LEVEL – 2–10
Suitable for a wide range of surfers. Experienced riders can size 1–2” shorter than their everyday shortboard for maximum responsiveness, while those wanting extra stability can size closer to their standard shortboard dims.
CONDITIONS – SMALL TO FUN PERFORMANCE WAVES
Designed for everyday 1–3ft surf. It excels in beach breaks, rip bowls, playful points and wave pools where speed and quick direction changes matter.
SUITABLE WAVE FACES – FLAT TO HEAD HIGH
Best suited to small-to-medium wave faces that reward flow, agility and fast response.
