Swiftly achieving takeoff and reaching topspeed stands as a critical performance factor for the Global, enhancing its jumping capabilities significantly. Paired with its exceptional turning agility, which allows the rider to pivot off the rear foot or concentrate on carving turns from the front foot, this board line boasts a comprehensive set of attributes tailored for versatile performance across diverse conditions. Its optimal environment is found in side-onshore and onshore conditions, yet it exhibits enough versatility to adapt seamlessly to side-shore conditions as well.

The Global's outline exhibits slightly broader dimensions at the nose and tail compared to the Ho'okipa Quad, delivering added stability and enhanced planing prowess. Its V-bottom shape initiates with a gentle V at the nose's entry, evolving into a V with a subtle double concave in the midsection, culminating in a clean V release at the tail. The rocker line prioritizes early planing and rapid acceleration. Coupled with the V-bottom design, this synergy yields turning capabilities on par with other side-shore boards. The Global's rail shape incorporates a mild edge with a medium tuck along the nose and midsection, transitioning to a sharp turn just behind the front foot area, ensuring exceptional early planing and excellent acceleration.
