Big Brother Sting - Tuflite

Big boards, big-guy fun. Ben Aipa's staple longboard is a high-performance tank built to power through the mushiest conditions — finally, a board that makes average days as fun as the best of the year.

Key Features

• High-volume float that lets bigger and heavier riders catch anything
• Extra thickness through the centre with a foiled rail — float without losing manoeuvrability
• Wider nose outline for stability; pulled-in tail for quick, positive direction changes
• The iconic AIPA "Sting" wing blends easy paddling up front with control and drive off the tail
• Surftech Tuflite epoxy build — lightweight, durable, with a lively flex
• A genuine small-wave weapon that thrives where other boards struggle

Details

• Construction: Tuflite (Surftech) — Fused-Cell EPS core, bio-based GreenPoxy epoxy, twin fibreglass layers, wood-veneer micro-sandwich, composite T-stringers, reinforced rails
• Fins: 4+1 — five Futures boxes, so you can run it as a quad or 2+1 (fins not included). AIPA build under licence by Surftech.
• Outline/tail: wide-forward outline, AIPA Sting wing, pulled-in tail
• Brand/design: AIPA (Ben Aipa)

Who It's For

• Bigger and heavier surfers who want genuine float and easy wave-catching
• Anyone chasing fun in weak, mushy, less-than-ideal conditions
• Intermediate-plus riders wanting performance in a high-volume package
• Surfers after a tough, light epoxy longboard for everyday use

Sizing

These run high-volume by design — pick your length and litres to match your weight and the paddle power you want. The 9'0" and 10'0" carry serious float for heavier riders or maximum ease; the 8'0" is the more manageable, surfier option.
