The Skipjack
A high performance, versatile fish with elements of both traditional and progressive designs. The Skipjack glides through weak surf while maintaining the control and precision needed for high performance surfing. This board bridges the gap between a retro fish and a high performance shortboard.
-
The Skipjack is a high performance rendition of the classic fish design. The outline is wide and parallel in the midsection and curvy/narrower in the nose and tail. It has more rocker and deeper concaves than more traditional fishes such as the Tuna Melt. This allows for maximum speed and glide while maintaining the ability to be surfed critically in the pocket. Works best in knee to slightly overhead surf.

Typically ridden 2-4” shorter, 1" wider and 1/8” thicker than your standard shortboard.
