Torq Tec Chopper
Cruise with power and style
The Torq Chopper is a versatile shape – it’s a cruisey ride when the conditions suit, but give it a big open face and it’ll fire on all cylinders.
With an updated the shape with more forward volume for a more flowy, forward trim style of surfing from the front half of the board but with slightly more flip in the tail rocker for tighter turns and aggressive surfing. This is a very user friendly board that suits small wave days and pumping days as well.
With a 2+1 fin set-up it can be ridden as anything from glidey single fin, 2+1 or thruster.

The Huevo, in SLX construction, is a classic hybrid surfboard that incorporates the best of both the shortboard and longboard. It’s round nose and fuller tail gives plenty of floatation and makes paddling a breeze. With its shorter length and 2 + 1 fin set up makes for fast responsive turns and manoeuvrability.
OUTLINE: Its fuller outline with the wide point slightly forward of centre means you can trim and glide forward on the board, adds to the great paddle power and to the stability and flow, while its round tail makes for smoother transitions between turns.
ROCKER: With emphasis on being an all rounder it has a low to medium rocker, this is why you will find this board paddles with ease and flows through those dead sections with minimal effort. A slight lift in the nose makes those late take offs easier and the slight lift in the tail makes for nice drive through your turns.
CONTOURS: A nice classic slight rolled Vee from nose to tail makes it effortless for those rail to rail transitions, while the stance is anywhere on the board, however getting back over the fins the board will turn on a dime.
PERFORMANCE: Think summer grovely beach breaks when you don’t want a Longboard or it’s too small for your Shortboard or winter reefs and perfect points. This board can handle anything from waist to double overhead and any ability from beginner to advance. Enjoy

The Modern Falcon is now available in TMRW TECH construction - blending mid-length versatility with materials engineered to tread lighter on the planet. This board features a durable, flexible 100% recycled TPU outer shell, a shaped core wrapped in fiberglass and bio-epoxy resin. It rides with the familiar flow and responsiveness of traditional PU, but it’s built to handle the knocks and pressures that often sideline other boards. The result is a longer-lasting board that stays in your quiver and out of the landfill. Even the fin boxes and leash plug are made from recycled plastic and the entire board is precision-molded to minimise waste.
The Falcon’s smooth outline, fuller nose, and balanced rocker make it a go-to option across a wide range of conditions. Ideal for surfers stepping down from a longboard or those looking to add glide and stability to their quiver as they progress to an intermediate level. It paddles easily, trims effortlessly and responds when it’s time to draw clean, carving turns.
OUTLINE: The wide point is forward to enhance trim stability from a central stance position, and the streamlined nose gives the outline a contemporary vibe. The back half of the board tapers steadily towards the tail for easier turning in smaller waves, and to heighten control in slightly larger waves.CONTOURS: The rocker strikes a balance between paddle speed and just enough nose/tail lift for accessing steeper parts of the wave. Forward vee running to vee/double concave between the feet allows for very smooth rail transitions and a responsive feel when standing further back.
FOIL: Designed with plenty of volume through the spine for appropriate buoyancy and stability. The taper at the tips provides better performance sensitivity when riding on the wave face.
PERFORMANCE: The dual-purpose nature of the Falcon offers a stable and cruisy ride for surfers coming off a softboard or bigger longboard. Alternatively, more capable riders will find a surprising amount of speed a response when adopting a more aggressive approach.
The Modern Falcon is a reliable, and affordable board that will feature prominently in your quiver. Comes as a thruster with Futures plugs. Fins Not included.
