LIGHTWEIGHT, MID-LENGTH PERFORMANCE
Performance minimal’s are one of the funnest, most versatile boards you can own. Great for first waves, perfect for gliding small clean waves and with the paddle and pick up for larger or junkier surf.
Usually a performance minimal comes at a cost; the size of the board means to make it lightweight they are inherently weak and lose their responsive feel quickly or simply break. With the Torq TEC construction you get a lightweight board with all the strength of a much heavier one and much more responsivity.
Our combination of carbon strips on the top and bottom make these boards super lively and surf a lot shorter than their length.

Torq Tec The Don 9'6"ALL THE TRICKS IN THE BOX
Modern longboarding has a variety of skill and style that is hard to compare in any other sport. Depending on the surfer, or the wave, or the board, it can be a dance or a martial art. It can be light footed poise or powerful drive, straight line trim or vertical snaps, nose rides or carves. A true modern high performance longboard has to be capable of all of these things.
The Don is stable on the nose, straight and fast through the middle and lively in the tail. The Don XL is higher volumed version of the Don for heavier surfers, slightly more nose oriented to enable more stable nose riding, but still super responsive in the tail. The added advantage of the Torq TEC construction; lightweight, strong and super responsive makes the wide repertoire of moves easier and more dynamic.

Aloha Chopped Log Ecoskin
- ECOSKIN Technology is a small step toward producing surfboards that are manufactured with more Earth friendly ethics.
Ecoskin surfboards are by no means sustainable but utilising less toxic materials during production we are taking steps to decrease our carbon footprint.
Paulownia is one of the fastest growing trees in the world, capable of growth rates of well over seven feet per year! Paulownia timber is perfectly suited as a sustainable alternative in surfboard production due to its lightweight and proportionately natural strength characteristics.
Some species of plantation Paulownia can be harvested for saw timber in as little as five years.
Once Paulownia trees are harvested, they regenerate from their existing root systems, earning them the name of the “Phoenix tree”.
Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) foam is very light and strong. EPS foam has more buoyancy and floatation increasing paddling speed and manoeuvrability
Epoxy Resin is a healthier alternative to polyester as epoxy emits 50-75% fewer VOCs, decreasing the amount of harmful chemicals released into the environment.- Surf 10" Single fin

Roger Hinds Renaissance Tuflite V-Tech -10'0"
Surftech
Experience the best of the past with the top design elements of the present, experience “the Renaissance.” “Renaissance” is a French word for “rebirth”, or a new interest in something that has not been popular for a long time. Reaching back through the natural progression of his surfboard designs from his early years to the present, Roger Hinds has brought the best elements of each era forward with the Renaissance Model. The Renaissance model revisits and revises the top longboard plan shape from the 1960’s; the height of the longboard era, and combines it with modern rocker, rail, and foil design elements to bring it into the present. The modern pulled down rail allows for smooth and easy rail to rail transitions. The advanced fine foil increases the speed and the glide which makes for fast clean surfing. The result is a one board longboard quiver. Pairing the right fin can greatly alter the performance of a surfboard. Roger has spent years perfecting finding testing fins shapes and sizes .

Walden Mega Magic 2 Tuflite - 9'6"
The Walden MEGA MAGIC will float like a board that is 12"-18" longer. For the bigger guy that normally rides a 10'. With the Mega, he can ride this 9'0" without giving up float or stability.
Known by many as the “Father of the Modern Longboard,” Steve Walden shaped his first surfboard in 1961, at age 13, and never looked back. Eight years later, the native Southern Californian opened his first board factory and store in Huntington Beach, then moved to the North Shore of Oahu in 1972, where he made a name for himself as a prolific longboard shaper.

Torq Tec 24/7 Longboard 9'0"
24/7
ALL DAY, EVERY DAY
The 24/7 is the go to, all round longboard design for every day of the week. It’s a board you can put in the van without checking the webcams; from kneehigh to overhead, for noseriding, cruising or turns, it works.
Shape wise, the 24/7 sits right in the middle between the nose riders and pro performers – a balanced outline with nose width for nose rides, a straight middle section for trim and a pulled in tail for turns and control in the pocket. The rocker matches the outline – low entry for stability, flat middle for speed and a flip in the tail for turns. There’s a good volume for max paddling, with a foiled rail through the fins and at the tail.
The 24/7 is a one board longboard quiver – a true all rounder.
