Yoshinori Ueda, also known as Y.U is an extremely accomplished longtime surfer, craftsman and board builder from Japan who is well versed in many areas of shaping.
The staple and baseline of YU's shapes, designs, and fin templates. Fairly upright in stature, but also features a beautiful curve and healthy amount of area throughout.
Put it on a mid-length or fuller board when you want one versatile, neutral single that does a bit of everything, adding side bites when you want more hold on rail. If you would rather have rake, flex, and drive for point-wave speed and long turns, the Wilderness Flex is the alternative.
The YU Spring Arch is the baseline single fin template from shaper Yoshinori Ueda, made by True Ames in solid fiberglass. The profile is fairly upright with a moderate amount of rake and a healthy amount of area throughout. It is stocked in four sizes, 7 inch, 7.5 inch, 8 inch, and 8.5 inch, and can run as a standalone single or with side bites in a 2+1 setup.
