Hard Core Softboards
Soft-top feel, epoxy core. Three constructions: Cush for soft landings, Slick to fly, Shell to glide.
Most softboards are soft all the way through. Hard Core isn't. Every board is built around a vacuum-bagged epoxy core, so you get the stiffness, drive and pop of a proper hard surfboard, with a soft EVA deck on top that's forgiving on knees, heads and everyone else in the lineup. Then pick your bottom:
- Cush – soft EVA top and bottom. The safest, most forgiving build, made for comfort and groms. (Shorty)
- Slick – HDPE slick bottom. Harder, slidier and faster down the line. (Discus)
- Shell – hard ABS bottom. The most responsive of the three and the closest thing to riding a hard surfboard. (Glider)
