Description

The DHD MF Lightning is one of those once-in-a-lifetime boards that earns a permanent place in the rack. Born from Mick Fanning’s original CT-winning DNA model, it keeps the same proven foundation but has been fine-tuned for more everyday spark.

Mick worked closely with Darren post-retirement to create a faster, sharper version that thrives in smaller, weaker surf, but still holds its own when things get bigger but lack push.

  • Rocker: Same tail rocker as the DNA, but straightened between the feet for more speed. Increased nose lift to fit tight in the pocket. 
  • Concave: Flatter under the front foot for instant acceleration; deep single concave between the fins for extra lift and speed.
  • Outline: Narrower squash tail with no hip for added control; nose slightly narrower with extra flip.
  • Foam & Rails: Flattened deck to add foam under the chest; dropped rails for sensitivity 
  • Fin Placement: Rear fin moved forward 1/8" for a tighter turning radius in smaller waves.

Where It Sits In Your Quiver

The MF Lightning is the board for everyday conditions, it surfs fast and sharp in all conditions ranging from 1-4ft. A great all-round everyday board you can rely on.
