Board of the Day: Happy Leap Day

Small wave high performance board for small wave South Carolina.
This is what Robert has to say:
The Black Dump Truck is a Black Diamond with a squash tail.  This design was made to compliment and be a stepped-up version of the White Diamond or White Dump Truck.  We added three inches, narrowed it a half an inch and added a touch of rocker to the nose and tail.  By making these changes, we have given this board the ability to handle much bigger surf than the White Diamond.  

Here is a little video on a Black Diamond. Its the same board just with a diamond tail instead of a squash.

Hump Day: Board Day

Starting today and every successive Wednesday for the foreseeable future Hump Day will be Board Day here at Surf City.  Whats that mean you may ask? Well, it means you get a weekly dose of shredstick stoke. It could be a Roberts, Super, ...Lost, Chris Christenson, Gary Wilson/Kinetic, a paddleboard, or some random board of the ceiling, maybe even a skateboard for that matter. Nothing is out of the question.

Now for todays board.  I figured I'd start with the most beautiful board we have for sale. It's a 5'9 C-Hawk shaped by the myth that is Chris Christenson. 
This is what CC has to say about the board: 
This is my current rocket fish design. I recommend riding this board 3 inches shorter than a performance short board and 2-3” longer than a keel fin fish. This model comes with 5” twin fins (future) and a single wing swallowtail. Very fast and responsive and can handle sizeable surf as well grovel in gutless conditions. This board does hold extremely well and does not have that wiggly unstable feel that most twin fin designs have. Hit the turbo button by adding 4/6 channels in the tail. However, keep the channels out of non-glassy conditions.

Hey Hey Its a Diamond-Fish Day


Another day another diamond out the door. Well actually this one was a Diamond Fish. A 5'8 Diamond Fish to be exact.  The lovely new owner said he wanted to stay anonymous so NOBODY bought this but somebody actually did. 

Aloha Y'all to NOBODY.
