Da Monsta
I’ve created a monster….no, a Monsta...
The ‘one board quiver’. The most versatile board for waves two foot to just overhead; mushy or hollow.It has become most surfers' "normal everyday board for all conditions".
The only complaint has become, “I don’t ride any of my other boards anymore!”
Where the Rascal utilized a spiral vee contour running through the fin cluster, I’ve plowed all those guts out of the Monsta and left one deep even concave with subtle inset doubles running through the fins…as well there is also concave running right off the tail block; we call it the ‘exhaust pipe’.
Ride Da Monsta 3-4 inches shorter and 1/2” wider than your standard good waves shortboard.

the v.1.3 | being the most user friendly from novice to expert and working in the widest ranges of wave types and sizes | beginner - advanced |
Monstasqueak |
Blends the low entry under the chest / flip tip of the Pipsqueak with a flatter run through the belly rocker and some extra tail flip off the back fin. Combined with heavy deep single to inset double concave bottom gives this board incredible small wave drive without compromising a nice crisp whippy feel in turns. |

the v.2 | has a bit more rocker and can handle the demands of hyperactive rippers who can’t stay out of the pocket, or for surfers who’s local spots tend to be small, but can still be small and hollow at the same time i.e. the N.Y./ N.J. beachbreaks, Newport, Huntington, Texas, Japan, etc…small beachbreaky kind of stuff…found all over really… | intermediate - advanced |
