We consider the Chew Toy to be the ideal “step-up groveler or hybrid”, as it will handle a much broader range of waves and conditions than most other boards in those categories. The new Chew Toy features a few modern tweaks to improve the performance and versatility; a pulled in nose, refined single to double with vee off the tail bottom and performance rail. The deck configuration allows us to pack in some additional liters for better paddling proficiency, and the tighter tail template and additional rocker, when compared to traditional grovelers, improve the performance.
