Performance Short Board
New shortboard models coming soon
This board design has a flat entry to a shallow single concave, increasing to a maximum depth 2/3 of the way down the board. A long moderate nose rocker and outline curve, compliments the increase in concave which creates the engine room between the surfers feet. This is a fast smooth responsive design for high lever surfing.

Fin Specifications
Being for high level surfing this board uses a tri fin design to allow maximum performance in most conditions, making it a very versatile board. The fins increase with the increase of board length and volume.
The Boost - Air Board
A flat entry to a increase of Vee with double concave at a maximum depth towards the tail, defines the boost's hull design. Narrower nose width with wider tail area compliment the deep Vee double. This allows the stability of a wider board, with the looseness and drive of a much narrower board.

6'0 x 20 1/4 x 2 5/8
6'1 x 20 1/2 x 2 3/4
Fin Specifications
The Boost uses a tri fin design that has more depth to allow hold because of the depth of vee in the boards design.
Free Range - Egg
A low continuous nose entry works with a shallow concave and forward wide point, for fast planing speed and forward momentum. With moderate tail rocker and a deeper double concave running through a Vee off the tail, will allow for tighter pocket surfing. Inspired by a elliptical egg, also gives the Free Range more forgiveness and versatility.

6'4 x 21 x 2 5/8
6'6 x 21 1/4 x 2 11/16
Fin Specifications
The Free Range started as a single fin design, but the demand for it to be more versatile changed it into a single box plus side fins (2 + 1 design as seen in the photo). However the diversity of fin options this allowed caused too much confusion for the customer, so now it comes as a tri fin with MR twinzers or a single box design with the 81/2, Ignition Box Fin.
San Diego - Fish
Keeping with the traditional San Diego design, this fish has an accelerating curve outline, a Vee hull nose entry for fast water displacement, deep single concave out the tail and twin low ratio keel fins. The San Diego is built for speed, and is modernised for more progressive surfing.
Model Dimentions
5'2 x 19 3/4 x 2 1/8
5'4 x 20 1/4 x 2 1/4
5'6 x 20 3/4 x 2 3/8

6'2 x 22 3/4 x 2 7/8
6'4 x 23 1/4 x 3
6'6 x 23 3/4 x 3 1/8
Fin Specifications
This model has twin low ratio keel fins. The base and double foil of these fins give San Diego the control. The shape, parallel fixture, and fin angle (90 degrees off flat) allows the speed.
Speed Seeker - Beach Fish
I was lucky enough to work with San Diego's Richie Pavel, back when he re-ignited interest in the fish in Australia, and I laid the foundations for the Speedseeker whilst working with him then. The Speedseeker has similar design qualities as the San Diego model, but with an increased rocker throughout. A deeper single concave and more outline curve which a micro hip forward of the leading fins allows for easier direction change, and pocket surfing. Additional design feature's include refined volume in the boards centre and a modern rail. The resulting Speekseeker is the perfect beach break fish for the modern surfer.

5'2 x 19 1/4 x 2
5'4 x 19 3/4 x 2 1/8
5'6 x 20 1/4 x 2 1/4

6'0 x 21 3/4 x 2 5/8
6'2 x 22 1/4 x 2 3/4
6'4 x 22 3/4 x 2 7/8
6'6 x 23 1/4 x 3
Fin Specifications
The Speed Seeker fish is deigned for a broader range of waves, so a quad fin design is used. By dividing the fin area and changing the position, tow and angle, allows this board to surf tighter, without minimizing too much speed.
The Speed Seeker also comes as a four channel, quad fin design. (as seen in photo)
The Toy - Bonzer
The Toy's design has a slight Vee in the nose, to a shallow single concave entry, running to a deeper double concaved Vee exiting the tail. Designed for clean, natural lines of a single fin on a wave, it still provides drive when required through turns, from quad low ration keel fins.
Model Dimentions
5'8 x 20 x 2 3/8
5'10 x 20 1/4 x 2 7/16
6'0 x 20 1/2 x 2 1/2
6'2 x 20 3/4 x 2 9/16
6'4 x 21 x 2 5/8
6'6 x 21 1/4 x 2 11/16
Fin Specifications
The Bonzer began as a single fin with two big keels. Then in 1983, the Campbell Brothers built the first Bonzer 5 fin. The Bonzer 5 fin inspires the Toy’s fin design, but I use the 7¼, Ignition Box Fin, with the B5 keels. This gives the Toy the freedom of change.

Revolver - Single Fin
This board is a late 70's/early 80's single fin influenced by some of the boards being produced just before Simon Anderson introduced the much loved Thruster design. It has a shallow Vee entry to a deeper double concaved Vee into, and out of the tail. A slightly fuller nose width narrowing through the tail works with the double concave Vee hull, and twin flutes that give maximum drive responsiveness and speed.
Model Dimentions
6'2 x 19 1/2 x 2 7/16
6'4 x 19 3/4 x 2 1/2
6'6 x 20 x 2 9/16
6'8 x 20 1/4 x 2 5/8
7'0 x 20 3/4 x 2 3/4
7'2 x 21 x 2 7/8
Fin Specifications
The 81/2, Ignition Box Fin, works with the twin flutes to give the Revolver it’s projection, and smooth, tight turning capabilities.
Cross Breed - Hybrid
The Cross Breed's design has a shallow concave blending into a double concaved Vee between your feet and out the tail. A balanced nose and tail area creates a fast vector outline which works with a flat deck, fuller rail and a sharp sanded under edge nose through to tail. This provides more connection and feel with the wave. The cross breed is a small wave hot dogger but will still holds its own in larger swell.
Model Dimentions
6'4 x 20 1/4 x 2 5/16
6'6 x 20 1/2 x 2 3/8

7'2 x 21 1/2 x 2 5/8
7'4 x 21 3/4 x 2 11/16
7'6 x 22 x 2 3/4
Fin Specifications
The Cross Breed uses deeper tri fins. I’m currently working on some high aspect, low drag tri fins, (see Paddle Pop photo) to make this model a more complete thruster design.
Paddle Pop - Mid Range Board
The Paddle Pop is similar to the Cross Breed, but with a lower entry rocker and more nose area. Influenced by a short board, rather than a long board, the paddle pop is a mid range board that a good surfer can have in their quiver, confident that this surfboard will perform due to it's refined volume and modern design qualities.
Model Dimentions
6'6 x 20 1/4 x 2 5/16
6'8 x 20 1/2 x 2 3/8
6'10 x 20 3/4 x 2 7/16
7'0 x 21 x 2 1/2

7'4 x 21 1/2 x 2 5/8
7'6 x 21 3/4 x 2 11/16
Fin Specifications
The fins you see in this board are prototypes for a tri fin design I’m developing. The idea is to give more projection, less drag and a tighter arc to a bigger board.
Increased depth, less base and rake, allowed me to modify this board design and push the sweet spot further up the board which gives the surfer more freedom over more length.
Bling - Performance Longboard
The most advance longboard of my range, Bling has maximum nose to tail rocker without minimising planing speed, and the blended nose concave gives smooth and predictable nose riding. Complimenting the maximum tail rocker is a deep Vee double concave, and an outline hip starting just forward of the side fins, which allows this board to turn vertically, and whilst pivoting, not get caught up in the lip.
Model Dimentions
9'0 x 22 1/8 x 2 1/2
9'1 x 22 1/4 x 2 9/16
9'2 x 22 3/8 x 2 5/8
9'3 x 22 1/2 x 2 11/16
9'4 x 22 5/8 x 2 3/4
9'5 x 22 3/4 x 2 13/16
9'6 x 22 7/8 x 2 7/8
Fin Specifications
Bling uses the 71/4, Ignition Box Fin with GL side bites, This fin configuration is ideal for most wave heights and conditions, but if the tail feels like its drifting too much in steeper parts of the wave, then replacing the GL’s with MX sides, will give the board, the extra hold it needs. (MX sides have increased base and depth) I’ve also tested the tri fin prototypes that are used in the Paddle Pop and Cross Breed, and they feel perfect as a tri fin option in the Bling model.
Smooth Operator - All rounder longboard
The Smooth Operator is a longboard featuring a deep blended single concave entry with a shallow to deep rolled Vee off the tail for smooth loose turning. The design also incorporates a moderate rocker nose through to tail.
Model Dimentions
9'0 x 22 1/4 x 2 5/8
9'2 x 22 1/2 x 2 3/4
9'4 x 22 3/4 x 2 7/8
9'6 x 23 x 3
9'8 x 23 1/2 x 3 1/8
10' x 23 3/4 x 3 1/4
Fin Specifications
Smooth Operator uses GL sides with the 8 ½, Ignition Box Fin. The slightly bigger Ignition Fin is used in this board for more hold while on the nose but with the refined qualities of the Ignition, smooth turning is still possible. As a single fin option I recommend the 9 ¾, Ignition Box Fin.

Slipstream - Nose Rider Longboard
The Slipstream has the deepest blended single concave out of any of the other Longboard Models. The concave runs through to a rolled Vee and the plan shape has a parallel appeal through the centre of the board for a fast planing speed. The tail rocker has maximum kick from the Fin Box back for hold of the wave face to allow longer, smoother nose riding, and comes with a wide square or bell pin. The Slipstream is the perfect high volume small wave longboard.
Model Dimentions
9'2 x 22 3/4 x 2 3/4
9'3 x 23 x 2 7/8
9'4 x 23 1/4 x 3
9'5 x 23 1/2 x 3 1/8
9'6 x 23 3/4 x 3 1/4
Fin Specifications
Being a single fin model, the 9 ¾, Ignition Box Fin is used to drive this high volume nose rider. With the Ignition’s design qualities, it gives the Slip Stream easier maneuverability and handling. For a more OLD SKOOL feel, a hatchet fin is used.
Sgt Pepper - Nose Rider Longboard
Sgt Pepper has a low nose entry with a tear drop panel concave running a third of the way down the board. It has a rolled bottom with a double concave exiting the tail. The planshape of the Sgt Pepper complements the rocker and hull design which allows for easier nose riding and tail turning due to maximum nose area and narrower tail width.
Model Dimentions
9'0 x 22 3/4 x 2 3/4
9'2 x 23 x 3
9'4 x 23 1/4 x 3 1/4
9'6 x 23 1/2 x 3 1/2
9'8 x 23 3/4 x 3 3/4
Fin Specifications
The 81/2, Ignition Box Fin with GL side bites works best in this model. Although Sgt Pepper is a high volume nose rider the tail is still quite modern. With the double concave giving the rail a faster action/reaction time, the GL side fins work well with this design feature.
