Manufacturer description:
TWO OF OUR ALL TIME FAVOURITE TWINS IN ONE.
Building on our love of twin fins, we’ve kept an array of the design features that made our OG Baron one of the most widely loved boards of all time, maintaining equal parts old school speed and new school flair. The Baron Flyer has foam in all the right places to float over soft sections and fly down the line, yet still allow you to lay it on rail or bust the fins even when you’re going Mach 10.
Slightly more curve than the original Black Baron ensures you’ve got enough rocker to fit right in the pocket, yet still generate and maintain plenty of speed. This is complemented by a moderate single concave running into double concave, providing extra lift and liveliness, and complemented by a balanced, manoeuvrable plan shape. The other main change is an even flatter deck, with low rails. And of course, the round tail with a flyer allows us to maintain more width through the middle but with a relatively pulled in tail. So, ride your Baron Flyer ¼” wider than your OG Black Baron dims.
Fin positioning is also moved further forward to maintain balance between release and control, due to the tail pod being much narrower than the OG Black Baron. This prompts quick, reliable engagement and easy rail to rail transitions, even in weak conditions. Whatever surf you choose to ride it in, the Baron Flyer gives you the freedom to take new lines and go faster than ever in small waves.

BARON FLYER
WAVE TYPE
Baron Flyer performs best in flatter waves where you're looking to generate your own speed. And as a bonus, it overdelivers in quality surf too – especially longer waves where you can make the most of its incredible ability to fly down the line & make sections.

Features
Rocker | An overall low to flat rocker is well suited to create speed and glide in small to average conditions. |
Fin setup | The Baron Flyer comes stock as a twin fin. In Futures bases, we recommend our JSxMFC Twin Fin that has been tried and tested with this board design. In FCS, we recommend the Power Twin. |
Glassing specs | Boards 5'2" to 5'9" are glassed standard with 4 oz. deck x 4 oz. bottom. Boards 5'10" to 6'2" are glassed 4 x 3 oz. deck x 4 oz. bottom. 6'4" are glassed 4 x 4 oz. deck x 4 oz. bottom. (All sizes come standard with Hybrid Fibre tail strips). |
Rail type | The Baron flyer has flat low rails as a result of the board's flat deck, hiding volume in the right places for extra float, but also allowing you to turn at high speed. |
