Rumour has it that the board was designed specifically for backdoor.

if you flick that at at a drop-in does it count as sexual assault?

John Peck had a model back in the day called the "Penetrator"
Is this its' modern day distant cousin?
John Peck Penetrator
John Peck is a long time surfboard shaper from South Orange County most famous for shaping his signature surfboard called The Penetrator.
The Penetrator is a long board with a distinctive rail that is different from other boards. This board take the turned down rail or 60/40 style rail and runs it around the entire board.
In an interview on Kordury.tv John Peck says “this board is a total function-able design where when you stand on the back of the board it slows down and is maneuverable. While if you walk to the front of the board it speeds up and gets stiffer. There is nothing strange going on in the transition when you walk back and forth on the board.”
In the photos below you can check out the shape and notice the rails how they are turned down. These type of rails keep the board planing on top of the water and are typically more reactive and maneuverable. This type of rail is used on a lot of performance board however, the rail goes from softer rails in the front to the down turned rail and finally going to a hard edge in the tail. The Penetrator takes it all the way around the nose, down the sides and then it gets a harder edge in the tail. The couple I have seen do not have any concave in the nose or any Vee in the tail.
Korduroy has a killer video with and interview and footage Peck riding his Penetrator in some decent beach break. Here is the link: Korduroy.tv
