The Dark Horse is the Quad version of the Dark Series that was developed in parallel with its brother The Dark Twinn (Twin Version). Designed as a high performance groveler, the Dark Horse and the Dark Twinn share an identical outline and core components for a majority of the design but shift the wing placements to engage the wing-to-fin relationship and accent how the board performs in that fin specific configuration. The Dark Horse combines Ben Aipa's Wing Twin template, used to make Dane Kealoha’s twins in the late 70’s and a 90's Swing Twin squash template that has been modified for today's surfer. 

Featuring, Mid range rockers, lowered rail apex line, and staged bottom contour blending a roll from nose down into a single concave under forward foot, to double concave deepest between the forward fins, transitioning to a healthy amount of vee/double starting at the wing and blending out thru the tail. The Dark Horse is a lively and responsive board. Proven from Pismo Beach mush to juicy Hawaiian surf.

 The Sting was invented by Ben Aipa in 1974. It was test piloted by Buttons Kaluhiokalani, Mark Liddell, Larry Bertlemann and Dane Kealohaand and it rapidly went through a series of refinements. Mark Richards caught wind of the design and came to Hawaii to seek out Ben. For the Dark Arts collab, AIPA chose to focus on the version of the Sting Made for Mark Richards in 1976. This shape is modeled after Mark Richard's 6’8”x21-1/2”x3-1/4”. MR’s Flame Sting was made with a step bottom which removes ¼” from the bottom contour from behind the Sting (wings) to the tail. Ben wanted to create air cavitation and subsequent lift which meant more speed. This would be the first known attempt to facilitate lift like our modern concaves now do for us. AIPA added a slight amount of curve to the tail and moved the midpoint back, closer to center, to improve performance and the remainder of the board remains true to the original. The black carbon strip down the center of the board pays homage to Ben Aipa’s wide stringer color work, as seen in the late 70’s version. The ’76 STING combined with Dark Arts Tech is bound to be a modern classic! Suggested ordering ¼” thicker than normal board.

In early 2019,  Album started working on prototypes for their soft top program. They wanted to make a board sub 5’0” that could carry volume but still be a ripper. They made a 4’10” chunky little thing that was a little over 30 liters, with a fishy rocker, twin-fin setup, and a wild double-barrel bonzer-style deep-channel concave running almost the full length of the bottom of the board. Album gave it to Asher and Josh to test. The results were remarkable. It was the first Album board Asher rode and within two sessions the guys had already stacked internet-breaking clips on a first-draft prototype. So it went off to create the mold for the Seaskate soft top, but they knew they had to make a model out of it. Ride it a little shorter and thicker than a Sunstone. It packs a lot of volume, but don’t be afraid to ride it 3-5 liters more than your shortboard.

The Plasmic is a limited and numbered run of 100.

The Album twin is a well balanced, large twin template, designed for fluid, stylish surfing.  These will provide generous amounts of hold on steeper waves while also helping generate speed on smaller softer waves. These twins will compliment any fish outline. They can also be thrown in hybrid shorties or standard thrusters that carry more width/volume through the tail. These fins are ridiculously fun, and will open up new horizons for those looking to expand their stye.

The Matt Parker designed Album fins are part of our Apex Series lineup. Matt designed these to complement his board designs.

The premier tool of the twin-fin trade. A go-to performer in all conditions. Slight concave deck, foam pushed to the perimeter, with a revolutionary rail to rocker to bottom contour that generates speed effortlessly but allows for easy control, turning and drive on-demand. Josh Kerr spent a month in Indo and couldn’t get off it! Ride it a couple inches longer than your fish and 1-3 liters more than your standard shortboard.
