Hi all, i have access to some superhydrophobic coating and wanted to give it a trial on one of my boards.

For anyone who doesn't know what it is, just watch this vid - it basically repels all water.

My question is, how does anyone think it would be best applied? the whole underside of the board,? a strip down the middle (leave rails as is)? coat the fins?

Not sure if it will do anything but will be fun to find out! i'd assume a touch more lift and speed?

Thanks in advance!
