The Modern Retro PU 9'6" Longboard is a dream ride for surfers of all levels. Putting a contemporary twist on an old-school design, you'll find this board to glide effortlessly in your ongoing quest to catch perfectly rolling waves. Its wide and stable platform provides ample room to walk the board and a moderately flat rocker proves to be fast and easy to paddle.
PU Construction – Polyester or PU construction uses traditional materials and laminating techniques to produce a strong, reliable surfboard with high quality finishes. All polyester boards are CNC milled from the shapers files and laminated by hand using quality components such as Hexcel fiberglass, Silmar resin and Bennett foam. For years traditional polyester boards have been at the forefront of performance surfing. These boards feature a progressive flex pattern controlled by a high-grade timber stringer and feel very reliable under your feet. Polyester construction will perform in all surf conditions and can be adapted to suit a wide variety of surfboard models.
Contours – A long, single concave under the nose provides lift for extended nose time, while vee through the belly and tail allows the rider to transition smoothly from rail-to-rail.
Outline – The Retro is wide and incredibly stable. The long parallel rails create a huge stable platform to stand and walk the board, and the full rounded nose is ideal for riding the nose.
Rocker – Moderately flat entry rocker provides fast paddling and flowing down-the-line trim speed. The flat section through the middle gives the board effortless glide, and slight lift in the tail enhances turning ability.
Rails – Forgiving 60/40 rails not only provide bite on the wave face, but also allows for smooth transitional turns off the tail.
