Demo Surfboards Available:

The MID6 range is now available in sizes sub 7 foot! Opening up one of our favourite boards to the wider surfing community and really blurring the lines between the mid length and full performance surfboard markets.
Bill has masterfully integrated six channels into the design, striking a perfect balance. These channels are not overly aggressive, allowing for easy manoeuvrability, line adjustments, and arc length modifications on the wave's face. With the channels positioned between your feet, turning response is immediate, and acceleration is unmatched.
The MID6 dispels the notion that channel bottoms are only effective in clean waves; it performs well in all conditions.
FINS: Thruster or quad fin setups work with six channels for a positive feel.
6’4 - 7’0 the new FCS Harley large mid set is recommended.
THUNDERBOLT TECHNOLGY
Thunderbolt Technology employs cutting-edge materials and techniques to reduce weight while simultaneously enhancing performance, flexibility, board control, and durability. In stark contrast to mass-produced epoxy boards that tend to feel rigid and unresponsive, Thunderbolt's meticulously handcrafted boards elevate the use of superior epoxy materials to a whole new level. These boards offer the same feel and sensitivity as high-quality polyurethane boards but surpass traditional epoxy pop-out constructions in terms of performance. Riders who have experienced these state-of-the-art epoxy boards often claim that they actually provide a superior experience to polyurethane boards.
Each Thunderbolt board is crafted entirely by hand. The process starts with an EPS foam core equipped with a multi-component carbon fiber stringer system, meticulously engineered to deliver optimal flex and responsiveness. Proprietary designs incorporating internal carbon fiber components are strategically positioned on both the deck and the bottom of the board to ensure precise control over flex and maximize strength.
The core shield PVC layer acts as a flexible protective barrier, bolstering the board's durability and strength without compromising its inherent flex and twist characteristics. Abundant use of carbon fiber and fiberglass in the deck, bottom, and rails ensures that Thunderbolt boards not only outperform but also outlast traditional polyurethane boards and other epoxy designs.
