LIGHTNING BOLT SURFBOARDS

Lightning Bolt Surfboards

LIGHTNING BOLT SURFBOARDS Lightning Bolt is a pure source of inspiration. A surf icon in Hawaii became the trademark for progressive surfing through performance in the water, distinctive design and the BOLT signature. Our history goes back to the beginning of the ’70s when the Shortboard Revolution was taking place and the style of the surf was being redefined by the best surfers in the World at “The Pipe”. There were no limits for these surfers and Lightning Bolt boards ruled the huge tubes of “The Pipeline”. After 50 years, Lightning Bolt, with a cool and relaxed attitude, a soul surfer approach, and a free-rider state of mind, expands the classic and iconic range to surf all oceans. Develops a “new generation” of eco surfboards and keeps marketing the authentic surfboards shaped only by authorized artisans, always inspired by the true spirit of surfing. The Authentic Lightning Bolt surfboards have a certificate of authenticity with a unique hologram number and QRcode. We have a legacy to respect and keep alive and another NEW LEGACY FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS.

HERITAGE Masterpieces of history, the first boards to successfully ride the tube at the Pipeline, in the ‘70s.

Lightning Bolt Heritage

PIPELINER BY GERRY LOPEZ While these shapes were the state of the art in the 70’s, now they are collector items. These boards take us back to exactly what Gerry Lopez rode in the 1970’s whether it was at the Pipeline, Ala Moana or wherever the person who gets one wants to go with their memories. The iconic Pipeliner by Gerry Lopez is an exact replica of the original shape, handcrafted using the original templates, rockers and the same glassing techniques.

PIPELINER BY RORY RUSSELL Rory Russell has made a name for himself by shaping one of the most emblematic Lightning Bolt surfboards ever: the super pinny performance-driven Pipeliner. The same shape Rory Russell surfed and won Pipeline competitions on.

Lightning Bolt Shortboards

QUAD FISH The Quad Fish combines compact volume in a short template, wide tail width, stability of a squash tail and the rail control of a pintail. Packing more foam than usual, into a shorter board, translates to more buoyancy, ease of catching waves, and shorter boards can turn tighter in the pocket. Quad Fish is also highly capable of catching waves in small wave situations because of the wide template at the tail. There’s more plane surface to keep you afloat. A wide tail also provides a great drive down line, which is very important when the waves are small.

Lightning Bolt Shortboards

EGG The Lightning Bolt Egg model is a type of funboard: a mix between a longboard and a shortboard. The high surface area makes it easier for beginners to stand up on the board. Its thickness and width give the surfer the ability to paddle and stay afloat more easily. The added buoyancy will allow balancing easier and is great for surfing smaller waves. The rails of an egg funboard are softer and more rounded than other boards, which tend to be more forgiving for a beginner learning the ropes. Egg surfboards are on the medium end of the length scale usually ranging from 6-8.5 feet. This makes it a great choice for the longboarder looking for a little more maneuverability.

MINI GUN The Mini Gun is a board for bigger days and hollow waves, when the shortboard isn’t long enough to handle late drops in pounding surf. This model has the perfect amount of rocker to keep the board turning easily, while maintaining its ability to hold well in the pocket. The concave position and hard edges provide a unique amount of speed and hold, especially inside the tube.

Lightning Bolt Certified Ecological Surfboards

LIGHTNING BOLT CERTIFIED ECOLOGICAL SURFBOARDS The surfboards industry is known to be polluting, but sustainability is a huge concern for Lightning Bolt. For that reason, we took an essential and innovative step: the launch of our first ecological surfboards, with a “Gold Level” seal awarded by the ECOBOARD Project, a program runned by Sustainable Surf, a non-profit organization. The project certifies surfboards and manufacturers of more sustainable surfboards, representing a great reduction in environmental impact. The ECO-TECH construction, compared to a standard construction in PU (Polyurethane) and Polyester, has a 70% lower environmental impact in every board produced. In addition to using sustainable materials in its composition, the construction of these boards involves vacuum infusion technology, which allows to reduce resin consumption and its waste by around 45%. Besides the direct reduction on the environmental impact, for each board produced, a fee is paid, which is applied by the Sustainable Surf Project in different actions to reduce the Planet’s carbon footprint.

Lightning Bolt Ecological Surfboards have the same technical performance as any other board, but a reduced environmental and toxic impact using more sustainable materials and manufacturing processes.

Lightning Bolt Certified Ecological Surfboards

TAKE NOTE 70% lower environmental impact in every board produced 45% reduction on resin consumption and waste The ECO-TECH construction can be applied to any shape or surfboard model It is possible to customize the bottom with any desired colour Resin: you can choose to apply a brilliant resin, which will react to the UV light and make the bottom colour change acquire a violet tone! It will return to its original colour once out of the direct sunlight. The same technical performance
