Tracker Roundtail
The Tracker Roundtail is the latest addition to the 4th Gear Flyer line. Size-wise, it sits between the Standard and Fatty. As such, it’s a very versatile mat…probably the most versatile we make. It was designed during the winter of 2009/2010 by Paul Gross and George Greenough, and has nearly 20 prototypes behind it. Our intent was to create a mat with the hold and breakaway speed of the Standard, with the glide of the Fatty. The unique I-Beam configuration and added length of the roundtail (plus 1.25”) work in unison to let this mat pick up waves easily and glide over flat spots, while maintaining punch off the bottom and a high trim speed. The Tracker Roundtail suits a wide range of rider size as well. Anyone from 135 pounds to 200 pounds can comfortably ride this mat on most days!
