New boards for summer!

Summer is here and I've been getting a ton of interest in alternative shapes that can perform in 1ft chop to overhead and clean.  I refined and combined some older templates to create a shape with a wide longboard style nose, forgiving full rails coupled with slightly rolled entry, standard shortboard rocker profile, a squash tail with thruster fin setup, and a double concave with vee through the tail.  The result is a board that catches everything, can handle cheater five nose rides, and can also be surfed from the tail like a traditional shortboard.  This thing is a blast!

We took out the new shape at the Pier for test drive.  Beginners and advanced surfers all loved it and I got orders for more!  Check out the pictures below.
