Why we make these

Made to be kept.

People treat the board as sacred and everything else as disposable. Fins snapped and replaced. Wax from a bin by the till. The boards got better every year and the parts got worse. So we started making the parts.

Made to be kept

Fibreglass layup, hand-foiled, sanded matte. A fin you replace because you lost it, not because it broke.

The parts you touch on land

The wax lives on the dashboard. The key is in the glovebox. None of it happens in the water.

Tested where we live

One coast, not a global team. Cold water, long drives, dirt pullouts. Everybody here has a job.

Made in small runs

The same shape since the beginning, out of the same shop. Scarcity is a consequence of care, not a tactic.
