The Sting: an invention that changed surfing

In 1974, Ben Aipa created the famous Sting, a board recognizable by its "wing" cut at the tail. This innovation allows for the buoyancy of a wide board combined with the maneuverability of a narrower tail, thus revolutionizing performance surfing. The Sting was quickly adopted by legends like Larry Bertlemann, Buttons Kaluhiokalani, and Dane Kealoha, and continues to influence many modern shapes today.

This philosophy continues to guide the development of current AIPA models.
