The Epic PE V5 & V7 Surf Skis have the capability to add an optional rudder - Epic's SmartTrackTM Kick Up Rudder. It can be purchased as an option when you order your Epic V5 RM Surf Ski, Epic V7 RM Surf Ski or can be ordered separately here.
This kit is the Haul-up rudder which is used on current generations of the Epic V5 and V7 Rotomolded Surf skis (not the orange tip Gen 1 V7).
There needs to be 3 rudder line openings in the stern of the ski - 2 for steering and one for hauling.
Note that the earliest V7 (orange tip) only has 2 openings - not suited to this haul-up rudder.
This current generations of rotomolded Epic skis has 3 rudder cords as shown (2x steering lines & 1x haul up line) -
