What’s the latest (and greatest) innovation(s) in surfboard technology?

Glenn Pang, Town & Country Surfboards, 45 years shaping: “For me, one of the greatest innovations has been the use of CAD program designing software and cutting machines. Nowadays, consistency plays a major role when you are dealing with some of the top athletes of our sport. Changes down to the millimeter are possible when fine-tuning on CAD software.

“Secondly, I would have to say that removable fins systems and the technology that goes along with them. Before, during winter seasons past, 95% of the boards that I did for the pros were glass on fins. Last year I would have to say that maybe only 25% were glass on fins. It offers so much more versatility, especially with having the option of riding the same board as a thruster or a quad.”

2015 BOARD BUYERS GUIDE

MASTER CRAFTSMEN

Wade Tokoro, Tokoro Surfboards, 30 years shaping: “The different combinations with foam cores (polyester, eps, extruded polystyrene, varial), resins (epoxy or polyester) and fabrics (Kevlar, Carbon) are some of the newest innovations in surfboard technology today.”

Jeff Bushman, Bushman Surfboards, 37 years shaping: “I think the greatest innovation is the fact that collectively shapers around the world are trying to improve designs and materials, always working to improve not only performance, but experimenting with different materials. Thus pushing our knowledge of surfboards to new levels.”

Matt Kazuma Kinoshita, Kazuma Surfboards Hawaii, 25+ years shaping: “The latest and greatest innovation in surfboard technology would be the new generation of USDA BioPreferred epoxy resins.

Better quality and a much more environmentally friendly American made product.”

Bret Marumoto, Bretboards, 32 years shaping: “Best innovation in surfboard technology that is here to stay is fin systems, with the addition of new fin foils that have different degrees of flex in the fin template. You can change the way your board rides by switching to different fins and configurations such as tri or four fin.”

Kimo Greene, Kimo Greene Surfboards, 45+ years shaping: “The configuration of my double barrel bottom and the strength and durability of my designs. It is something that I strongly believe in. I am not a one and done shaper. I make boards that last. Many of my clients have my boards for 10+ years.”

John JC Carper, JC HAWAII, “I was born shaping”: “Fiberglass, resin, balsa, fin, foam, more fins, CAD programs, CNC machines, Skill 100, sandpaper, Adz.”

Thoughts on hand shaped vs. machine cut boards: Glenn Pang: “There are so many exceptional hand shapers out there, but for me, it’s hard to beat the consistency of getting a board cut on a machine. Boards might look the same, but 1/16” here or an 1/8” there makes a big difference on how a board works. Also, using a CAD program allows you to calculate of the volume before the board is shaped. I think that the ability to calculate the volume on boards has been one of the best tools to recently become available.”

Heff

Wade Tokoro: “I started out hand shaping all my surfboards. It was very time consuming, less consistent and accurate, but allowed me to be creative in designing. I believe that machine cut boards are more consistent and accurate. You can start from a reference point and modify minute details.”

MASTER CRAFTSMEN / Jeff Bushman: “The shaping machine has been a valuable tool in design innovation. The surfer usually gets a consistent, proven design. I have always used the machine to make better boards, not more boards as many manufacturers have. The greatest problem with the machine is that you now have a new generation of shapers that are only copying other shapers boards. I have used machines for over 20 years, yet I still had hand shaped over 30,000 boards. Jon Pyzel loves to tell the story of when I was helping him learn to shape… I would not let him use my machine until he had hand shaped 1,000 boards. And he did. I think it is important to have an understanding of the skill of hand shaping so that subtle design changes can be made to improve the shapes.”

Matt Kazuma Kinoshita: “In the hands of an experienced shaper, there is no benefit to using machine cut boards. In fact, a master shaper like Glenn Minami can handshape to a level that most machine shapers dream of achieving. The real issue is that surfboard shaping is an art that takes decades to perfect and machines eliminate that old barrier to success. Experience.”

Bret Marumoto: “I still hand finish off all my machine cuts. That’s something the computer cannot do - the fine details that you make on a CAD cut from a machine. Hand shaping from the raw blank is something I still enjoy doing, having hand shaped over 10,000 boards with a planer.

But 85% of my shapes are machine cut nowadays. The consistency you get with high volume orders is hard to beat.”

Kimo Greene: “I particularly shape everything 100% by hand. The machine doesn’t take into consideration any personal aspects of the surfer. In fact, the machine isn’t for the surfer, It’s for the shaper/sander who tunes it up… I feel it’s important to have that personal touch when shaping, catering every board specific for the individual, their skill level and the waves they want to surf.”

John JC Carper: “You can get a great board either way. You can just get MORE great boards with a machine and save your body.”

Top tips for finding the right board / board buying basics: Glenn Pang: “Probably the best thing to finding a good board is talking with someone who understands surfboard design, whether it’s a shaper or a knowledgeable sales person. Talking with someone will help you find the right design that is suited for your surfing and type of waves that you will be riding the board on.”

Wade Tokoro: “Know what you want to use the board for and what your ability is. Your local shaper can help you dial in what type of surfboard you would need.”

Jeff Bushman: “Be realistic about your ability and purchase what is correct for you, not what you see someone else ripping on. Talk to your

shaper, and develop a relationship to make boards that will improve your surfing. A custom board is always better than buying some model off the rack.”

Matt Kazuma Kinoshita: “The easiest way to finding the right board for you is to talk to an experienced shaper, with a few questions they know exactly what you need for you to surf your best.”

Bret Marumoto: “When buying a board base it on your ability in the water. Get something that fits your height and weight. An experienced shaper can help you find that link to becoming a better surfer by using the proper equipment.”

Kimo Greene: “It’s imperative to speak with the shaper who is making your board. Tell them what you want to do with it. Different waves dictate different shapes and designs. I love when people come and watch me shape. They get a better understanding of what it is I do and why certain cuts are where they are.”

John JC Carper: “Talk to a legit, experienced shaper that doesn’t have a swastika tattooed on his forehead. It is to his best interest to get you a board that works… repeat customers are good.”

The Pod Mod design is a heavily modified Pod, designed to be ridden even shorter and wider than the original, catering to the surfer that wants a little more volume forward to catch waves but doesn’t want to sacrifice performance. The tail has been widened for small wave glide, and the original single to double concave has been replaced with a flat entry to concave vee for quick rail-to-rail transitions.

Experienced surfers ride this board 3”- 6” shorter than you are tall.

Designed to be a quicker and nimbler offspring of the Average Joe, the High 5 will pad your wave count and still allow for rail work and section making. The bottom is single concave entry to deep double through the fins and terminating with deep concave vee out the tail.

Comes stock with 5 fin boxes, can be ridden as a quad or thruster. Ride the High 5 however you want, but CI staff generally rides it 3” to 5” shorter than our height.

First seen on the WCT tour in 2010, the Rook 15 has been rediscovered by our entire CT team this year; Seabass, Kelly, Adriano, Lakey, Bianca, Sage, and Kai all have won heats on the new Rook 15. Ridden shorter and wider than the original, the Rook 15 is the ultimate contest workhorse. Single concave throughout, the Rook 15 works best when on rail.

Ride this board your same height to 2” longer.

Performance versus durability: is there a middle ground?

Glenn Pang: “Everyone is always looking for something that is more durable than the conventional PU board construction. Firewire, with its sandwich construction, seems to be doing a good job on the durability side, but then again nothing lasts forever. It all depends on how much durability you want to sacrifice for performance.”

Wade Tokoro: “We have always strived to keep performance as priority.

Performance boards are glassed lighter and not as durable as heavier glassed boards. The blank also makes a difference in durability. Our standard glassing is the middle ground where the boards are durable and relatively light.”

Jeff Bushman: “Performance versus durability has been an on going topic. The best surfers in the world need to surf the lightest boards. This gives them maximum performance and flex, and raises the possibility of a higher level of surfing. Surfing in small waves also creates a need for lightness. The North Shore has plenty of power so the boards should be glassed stronger so that hopefully they survive. The North Shore eats surfboards.”

Kazuma Surfboards / Imai Devault

Matt Kazuma Kinoshita: “The advances in materials’ quality has finally eliminated the old performance versus durability debate. 90% of my materials are made in the USA and every supplier that I work with has not only made technological advances to their products, but has also improved on the overall quality, aesthetics and performance of the products. In my opinion, blanks, fiberglass, resins and fins have all improved more in the last year than the previous 20.”

Bret Marumoto: “You can have the most durable (pop out molded) surfboard in the line up, but it will probably have the lowest amount of performance out there... nothing compares to the polyurethane foam core PU with polyester fiberglass glassing or expanded polystyrene EPS with epoxy resin glassing - these two are high performance applications for today’s modern surfboards.”

Kimo Greene Surfboards / Tia Blanco / Lalonde

Kimo Greene: “I don’t particularly believe in disposable surfboards. I feel it’s important to build boards that last. Just because it’s strong doesn’t mean it won’t perform, it means you’ll get many more years of usage.

I enjoy making performance boards that hold up in heavy conditions. I want the most out of both worlds for performance and durability.”

John JC Carper: “No matter what anybody says, a lighter board works better than a heavy board, EXCEPT at Jaws.”

With so many fin options out there, how do I know what’s right for me?

Glenn Pang: “For sure there are so many fins out there. Again talking with a knowledgeable sales person should help with the confusion of finding the right fin for the right board.”

Wade Tokoro: “The right fin choice will come with trial and error. You can read the material on what fin will suit you, but in the end you will know what works for you.”

Jeff Bushman: “It is best to start out with whatever fin template your shaper recommends. Start there then experiment with other templates.

As for quad vs tri fin? It is best to go 5 fin, this way you can explore all possibilities.”

Matt Kazuma Kinoshita: “Fins are a big part of how your board works and there is so much information on the fin manufacturers’ websites that it is easy to get close right away. I have a certain fin that I like and use it as my reference point. I will always use that fin set on a new board. From there, I can fine tune the fin sizes to fit the board and the waves. Trial and error is the funnest way to know what is right.”

Bret Marumoto: “Fin options can be confusing! The great thing about today’s fin manufacturers are that everything is pretty dialed on a scale for the consumer to view what’s available for their weight and skill level. It’s not a bad idea to have a five-fin option on your surfboard these days… you get two boards in one.”

Kimo Greene: “In my opinion get the 5 fin set up. This allows you to have many options in one board. As I mentioned before, different waves dictate different fin set-ups. With the option of the 5, you can play around until you find a set-up that works best for you.”

John JC Carper: “Tris work in all conditions and for everybody, but quads are faster and open up new areas on a wave to surf. Get both.”

Tail shapes and what they mean / how do you choose the right one?

Glenn Pang: “It would mainly depend on where and what type of wave you are surfing. Usually a squash or swallow would be your best bet for the majority of waves. A round pin, which has less area at the end, would turn tighter and hold better in steeper waves.”

Surf Tech / Kalani Chapman

Wade Tokoro: “There are so many tails, but as a rule, the wider the tail the more surface area. More surface area like squash tails will keep the board on the surface of the water and will be better for smaller surf. The narrower tails like a round pin will keep the tail sitting in the water so it will be better for bigger and more powerful surf.”

Jeff Bushman: “Round pins are the easiest, most forgiving, not just for hollow barreling waves, but all conditions. Squash tail give you lift in junk surf, swallows are creative. Try them all, find what is best for you.”

Matt Kazuma Kinoshita: “I love using different tail shapes to fine tune a board. Take your standard shortboard squash tail - it is magic in most wave conditions, but will usually have a hard time in fast and hollow surf. Change it to a round pin and you will instantly become a better tube rider. If your standard shortboard is hard to ride in the smaller surf, change it to a swallow tail with wider hips, it will be much faster without feeling like it will slide out. Area and release back there makes a huge difference.”

Bret Marumoto: “The basic tails of today’s performance surfboards the squash tail is the most versatile in all types of conditions. The thumb tail or round pin gives you down the line drive that lets you turn without spinning out, this tail can handle the speed and power of bigger surf.

The swallow tail and bat tail gives you lift in rail for rail turns to gain speed, plus you can take a higher line on the steeper parts of the wave.

5’9” x 19 1/2 x 2 7/16 Shaped by Makani McDonald

High Performance small wave short board. Fuller outline with a low entry rocker allowing the board to plane thru the flats, the tail rocker allows the board to turn tight in the pocket. Should be ordered at least an inch shorter and a little wider than your usual dimensions with the same thickness.

Very versatile board, This board can be ridden by all shapes, sizes, and skill levels, from entry to expert.

This will be your go to board most of the small days while in between big swells. It has a low entry, low kick in the tail with a single to light vee out the tail.

WRV / Dave Wassel / Eric Baeseman

Varial / Shane Dorian / Ehitu Keeling

Most beach break type surf you go with a squash tail or swallow. For reef breaks or hollow waves with power, the go-to tail is a round pin/ thumb tail.”

Kimo Greene: “Tail shapes are interesting. I personally like the wing swallow. It works well in all surf from 1 ft. to double overhead. My advice is to speak with the person shaping your board and tell them what you want to do with the board and what kind of waves you’re interested in riding.”

John JC Carper: “Pintails turn smoother, quicker and hold the face best, which is why they are so popular on guns, but the rest (squash, swallows, moonbeams) can be faster and more powerful (punchy). It is really just about the area, more or less, of the tail.” pau

Varial Foam Shaped

9’0” x 22 1/2 x 2 7/8 Shaped by Tommy Tanaka

This board is narrow, thin and light which makes it extremely fast. Designed with the advanced rider in mind, it has a lower nose rocker and extra tail with more edge. The entire board is pulled in, especially on the tail and nose. Bottom has a flat nose to slight roll vee to vee off the tail.

(808) 621.5000 @tandcsurfboard tcboards@tcsurf.com

5’6” x 19” x 2.25” Shaped by JC Hawaii Radically redefining how we look at a board. Short, wide and thick, this little TRD really does the trick. Displacement is gracefully maximized by the “S” deck so the rails can be low. Low rocker and vee out the back allow this board to turn on a dime and never lose drive. Did you see Dorian on his 5’6” TRD? What more can I say?

WRV Thief Shaped by Bushman 5’9 x 19” x 2 3/8” Collaboration between WRV and Mr. Bushman, who doesn’t need much introduction. He’s the man when the waves are serious.
