Best Board for Santa Cruz

Post by Kevin W »

What is the best board (company, # of fins, and type of board) for Santa Cruz surf? I am in the market for a new board, but I do not know what would work well both at Manresa and the Hook.

Lots of variety of surf here. even in the two places you mention. Almost all board types work here. So go with what you like. I'll have two boards to test ride at the upcoming contest if you're interested in an official SC board. John Mel will have a fair amount of boards on hand. You might be able to try one of his also.

My Gawd!!!!!!!!!! They must have found Beeline, frothing at the mouth, in the middle of the grocery store, downing all the Halloween candy he could find. Its the ultimate Suger Rush!!!!!

Ride a Freeline thruster or one of John's newly adjusted quads. He has two test KBs from this year available for a demo ride...he rode both in Indo and they both smoke.

If you want, you can also give my Freeline 5 finner a try.
