Super Bad Egg

One of the most notable enhancements is its reduced area forward. By pulling in the nose outline, Phipps has created a board that fits far more comfortably into steeper sections. This narrower forward template cuts down swing weight while helping the board engage more predictably on late drops and quick direction changes—crucial characteristics when riding hollow or fast-breaking waves. Complementing this outline adjustment is the increased nose rocker, which adds forgiveness and security in critical takeoffs. The extra lift prevents pearling and allows the board to knife into the pocket with confidence, opening the door to a higher level of performance in waves where traditional mid-lengths often struggle.

Underneath, the Super Bad Egg features slightly deeper single into double concave, generating impressive lift and acceleration. Water funnels cleanly through the bottom, providing extra speed out of the gate and a lively, responsive sensation underfoot. Paired with a thruster fin setup, the board gains sharper pivot, tighter turning arcs, and enhanced control at high speeds. This configuration also adds bite when driving off the bottom or projecting through a hollow section, making the board feel more shortboard-influenced without losing its signature glide.

Overall, the Super Bad Egg is the perfect choice for surfers who love the feel of an egg but want a board that truly lights up when the waves have shape and power. It delivers a unique blend of flow, speed, and precision—pushing performance to the next level while staying true to the smooth, effortless ride Phipps boards are known for.
