PLATFORMS

   


hand plane

  

Roots!  Every waterman should have body surfing gear in their quiver.  These hand planes and a set of fins can turn even the most worthless surf into an epic afternoon, and when the surf actually turns on, you'll find yourself tucked into parts of the wave that you just can't find on surfboard.  Available in a variety of shapes out of domestically grown Pawlonia (shown here) or out of reclaimed skate decks (check the Gallery).

OUTLAW SERIES

launch

 

Inspired by Ben Wei and the fiftyfifty crew and designed with input from a pair of Gulf coast crashtronauts, this model is for those of you who treat a session like a trip to the skatepark.  Short, flat, and thick and shaped with a concave deck for comfort and foot control, the only things missing are the trucks and wheels.

OUTLAW SERIES

speedball

 

More of a hybrid, this model puts the skate back into your pocket surfing.  Available as a round tail with or without breaks in the tail outline to loosen things up (check the gallery) and as a thruster, quad or 5-fin set up for maximal versatility.

OUTLAW SERIES

double aEby

Our double ender, for those of you who aren't entirely sure which way you're gonna land . . .

 

missing link

 

 

Designed for progressive surfing in small to medium surf, this board absolutely flies.  Early test pilots report amazing acceleration of the front foot and a loose, skatey feel of the tail.  The diamond tail shortens the turning radius for fine control in the pocket.  Ride this shape 4-6 inches shorter and 1/2 - 3/4 of an inch wider (at least) than your regular small wave shortboard, and then watch that regular shortboard gather dust in the corner.

mexicali especial

 

Unencumbered by drag of a trailing center fin, the quad fin set up opens all sorts of performance possibilities for those who are open minded about their equipment.  This model, originally designed for big turns on the long workable walls of Mexico's point breaks, features a rounder outline for versatility, relatively parallel rails for speed, and a single channel out the rounded pin tail to high-line through the steep sections. 

 

hi performance shortie
  Every dog has its day, and this board is designed for those days when the beach down the street looks like the wave in your dreams.  Available in rounded pin or squash tail and with a variety of fin systems; parabolic stringers available in poly or eps/epoxy.
rocket fish

 

Relaxed entry rocker, a rounder outline, and a subtle redistribution of volume make this a great compliment to the performance shortboard.  Designed to perform in the day to day slop and chop of the southeast coast.  Available as a thruster, twin-fin, twinzer, quad, or 5-fin convertible.
hybrid fish
  This board was designed to meet the every day needs of surfers on the Third coast.  Designed for surfers who like the float and speed of traditional fish but are looking for more versatility in sub-par surf.  Available as a thruster, twin-fin, twinzer, quad, or 5-fin convertible.
twin keel
 


There’s nothing retro about it: traditional down rails and flat rocker combined with subtle, progressive bottom contours and Lokbox keel fins make this the board of choice for blazing down the line speed and gouging rail turns.  Fully tricked out with custom resin tints and gloss and polish, these fish are the perfect blend of art and performance.
canard quad quad fin fish


A twist on the traditional keel fish, the canard quad fin set up provides the same blinding speed as a traditional fish with a tighter turning radius and added control in the pocket.  Available in Lokbox or FCS.
single fin shortie
 

 

Not that same old Lightning Bolt replica (although we like making those, too).  A rounder outline, modern rails, and spiral V in the tail make this board loose and playful in a range of conditions.  There’s nothing like a single fin to smooth out your style.
big boy shortie


With its extra width and rounder outline, this board was designed to meet the performance needs of bigger surfers or of surfers branching out from bigger boards.  Generally in sizes below 6’11, this board offers the stability and paddle-ability of a funshape with the performance of a conventional shortboard.

funshape
fun shape mid-range


Great for beginners and weekend warriors, this mid-range is designed to keep you catching waves and having fun in any conditions.  Available in rounded pin, squash, or diamond tail.

single fin egg
 


From mini-longboards to 50/50 platters, surfers all over are re-discovering the versatility of the single-fin egg.  These boards combine the paddle speed and glide of a long board with all the performance you’d expect from a smaller shape. We offer a variety of outlines to suit your style - see the gallery for examples.
performance noserider

 


It’s all about the glide.  Classic performance and versatility, complete with resin tints and gloss and polish and available in a variety of tail shapes.
modern performance

 

A 2 + 1 fin set up, modern rocker, rails, and bottom design make this a versatile performer for those of you intent on driving your longboard like a shortboard.  But don’t be fooled – this board offers plenty of tip time for the fleet of foot. 
stand-up paddleboard Whether you're interested in picking off the biggest set waves at your local spot or cruising in the back-bay flats, SUPs add a whole new dimension to the quiver of the aspiring waterman.    This model (our most versatile) is designed for longboard-style performance in small to medium sized surf.
