Here’s what Channel Islands say about FlexBar

The Sampler is at the high end of the grovellers. Loosely taken from the Dumpster Diver, but more refined and with a much more pronounced pivotal hip. A flat and racy rocker right throught the board until a curve in the tail allows for tight transitional turns into airs. There’s a generous single concave running through the whole board, with a double inside the single between the fins, running to a slight vee in the tail. All in all this board will fly in the slack stuff and create more speed as you hack into your turns.

The Sampler will work for every level of surfer in knee to head high. When I say every level of surfer, I don’t mean get this as your first ever board, but you knew that already right?
