The Haydenshapes Hypto Krypto Twin 5ft 8 blends the classic feel of a high-performance shortboard with the added speed and drive of a twin fin configuration. This version of the iconic Hypto shape is tuned for quick acceleration, loose flow and responsive manoeuvrability — perfect for beach breaks, reef wedges or everyday surf sessions. The wide entry outline and flatter rocker create easy paddling and early wave catching, while the refined twin-fin setup delivers lift, speed and a smooth rail-to-rail feel. The board stays lively underfoot, delivering energetic turns and fast trim even through waves that might challenge standard shortboards.
