With 15-25 mph trades being our predominate winds on the North Shore, if you want to surf sometimes there is now way around it. Spray in your eyes, navigating through fat chops coming up the face, and a relentless current make going left at Rocky Point borderline unenjoyable on the windiest days. When these trade wind systems set in, they can last for weeks, so I wanted to design a board that could handle all of these elements and make going left fun again …
For the outline of this board, I wanted to use one of my favorites, a ‘70s style single fin Lightning Bolt with a little extra tail width to accommodate a four fin design. The quad setup adds it’s own natural speed to help combat the head wind, and a little extra power for driving through the tube while maintaining control when running through the chop. The outline has a lot of width and volume in the front half, which helps with paddling. I kept the beak nose to pay homage to those who came before us, and because it’s the best way to hide volume up front and make a thick nose look good. I also went with the full deck logo, which was popular back in the ‘70s.
The original version of this board was made out of EPS foam for extra buoyancy when paddling and a layer of carbon fiber for deck strength and protection in closeouts. The board also comes in the classic PU/poly with a small logo.
Takes about 2-3 weeks for a basic shortboard with removable fins. Glass on fins, resin tint or custom paint could add another week or 2 on top of that. Carbon Fiber with Epoxy resin please add 2 more weeks. Thank you for your patience.
If you need it sooner there is a 150 USD rush fee available.
