Pugskates land at REAL Watersports

"What the heck is a pug?" Other than small dogs with curly little tails that make funny snorting sounds, (yeah they have funny looking faces too. ha! i said it!) "pugs" like their canine counterparts are cobby with well-developed muscle. The resurgence of the "small board trend" recently has brought on the reintroduction of our "pug" model to the line by way of expanding the nose template of our ever popular Ratskate and Fletcher Four-Fin models. Gone but not forgotten from the Stretch model line in the late 90's, the reintroduction of the "pug" combines refined technology with our EPS TECH construction, newest fin offerings and better materials. The shorter and stubbier look may be misleading in the sense that it's not just a small wave only board. The "pug" can handle all the variables of gutless windswell waves on up to hurricane-born, thick-lipped dumpers. What better way to show their stuff than with the family of test pilots on the Outer Banks. Real Watersports in North Carolina just received the first shipment of "pugskates" and they can now be viewed at their flagship store or online at: http://www.realwatersports.com/surfing/index.cfm?page=newsitem&id=1486 In the meantime, feel free to peruse these small collection of photos and if you have any questions, you know where to find us :)
