Gliding Dutchman North Sea Egg White

The Gliding Dutchman North Sea Egg in White is a 7’6 egg shape designed for surfers looking for a more responsive mid-length feel without giving up paddling efficiency. This board takes a more refined approach to the classic egg outline, with a noticeably narrower nose and tail that help it feel more direct through turns, while keeping enough width near the chest to maintain speed when paddling and entering waves.

That balance is what defines this shape. It is built for surfers who want an egg that can still be pushed, redirected, and surfed with intent, rather than simply trimming down the line. The fuller area under the chest supports fast paddling and easy wave-catching, while the pulled-in ends reduce excess swing weight and help the board respond more freely once you are on rail.

The bottom contour is shaped with a clear progression, starting with belly, moving to flat, then into a single concave, followed by a double concave, and finishing with vee out the back. This combination supports smooth entry, controlled trim, and easier rail-to-rail transition as the board moves through different sections of the wave. It gives the shape a technical, versatile foundation without losing the flowing character expected from an egg.

The rails are kept not too boxy, which helps the board hold a cleaner line and feel more settled when surfed with pressure through the face. At the tail, a subtle rocker kick has been added to loosen the board up and make direction changes easier. This is an important part of the overall design, giving the board a more dynamic feel than a flatter, more traditional egg.

A rounded pintail finishes the shape, adding control when conditions become a bit bigger and more powerful. That tail choice suits the board’s overall intent well, keeping the ride composed while still allowing it to be thrown around when the wave asks for a more active approach.

The result is an egg that sits in a useful space, fast to paddle, clean through transitions, and more maneuverable than its size might suggest. For surfers looking for a mid-length with practical speed and a more involved turning character, the North Sea Egg is a focused, well-balanced option.
