Brand New for 2024/25 Season!
The Pop Stick Hybrid has been designed for an intermediate rider looking to take the next step in progression, or a more experienced rider looking to squeeze the most out of the smaller summer days, without sacrificing performance. It features a small wave shortboard template combined with our hybrid construction style.
Key Features HYBRID CONSTRUCTION - a Stringered EPS Core, wrapped in Fibreglass Cloth, Bamboo Deck Reinforcement & Epoxy Resin, which is then encapsulated by a traditional Softboard IXL Deck Skin and HD Slick. CNC SHAPED PERFORMANCE TEMPLATE - This model uses a small-wave shortboard template. Compared to a regular shortboard, it features a little extra width, a higher widepoint and slightly flatter rocker which all help assist with paddle power and performance in weaker waves. TEXTURED TAIL PIECE - We've added a textured EVA tailpiece to help with back foot traction, much like a regular tailpad, but without the risk of it coming unstuck! Single tab fin system- This ensures it is easy to install and remove fins, and is compatible with other single tab fins, allowing you to change your fins to suit conditions or alter board performance.
Technical Specs CORE - 25kg High Density EPS, strengthened by Wood Stringer DECK - 2 x 6oz Fibreglass Layers + 0.5mm Wood Veneer + 3mm EVA Deckskin SLICK - 1 x 6oz Fibreglass Layers + 3mm XPE Substrate + HDPE Slick RAILS - Reinforced with 4 x 6oz Fibreglass Layer FINS- Single Tab fin boxes reinforced with 2 x 6oz Fibreglass layers
Note on Comfort and Foam Deck Materials: Soft surfboards are designed with foam materials, such as EVA foam rails or textured deck skins, for durability and performance. However, it’s important to note that these materials can sometimes cause rashes or shavings on the inner thighs of riders, especially during extended use. This is a normal aspect of foam surfboard design and is not a defect. To ensure maximum comfort and prevent irritation, we recommend wearing protective surf gear, such as surf leggings, neoprene pants, or long johns/wetsuits. These are designed not only to keep you warm but also to provide a barrier against potential discomfort while riding. We hope this helps you have the best experience in the water!
