ARCADIAN RANGE
ARCADIAN: CATCH MORE WAVES
​
The Arcadian family of boards are for when a little more volume is useful, but you don't want to go longer.
​
This may be because the waves lack power, breaking softly or it's high tide, or you've just got to get in the water now and can't wait.
The slightly higher volume in Arcadian boards mean they are ideal if you want to catch more waves because you're looking to develop your surf skills; or you need a board that works in conditions that happen all too often - the less than perfect days! its still worth getting in the water because you never know - they can be among some of the best times, right? After all, good things happen when least expected and if you don't get in you don't know.
​
Arcadian boards generally have a higher volume so they should be ridden a little shorter than your normal board length.
All these boards have complex bottom contours to harness the energy in the waves, therefore they travel fast in mushy conditions giving you an inherent advantage. They are responsive, turn easily and quickly as you expect from short boards.
A helpful analogy is Arcadian boards are little nippy city cars with quick acceleration and tight turning circles, not F1 race cars with high top speeds and sensitive steering. To stretch the analogy, F1 cars in surfing are in the Performance Boards family.
FREAKUENCY: THE ONE BOARD QUIVER
​
The only board you need, this is it!
​
If you only want one board and don't want to spend money on a board for every occasion, great. You won't need to make any decisions before driving to the beach; if you're car sharing there'll be no more bartering with your mates about how many boards each. Just put one board in the car; or lug one board around the airport, one in the hold, one on the beach, easy, problem solved.
Surfing-wise having one board can have great benefits to your skill. Not changing boards too regularly can give you the time and space to explore the limits of your own riding and teach you the subtleties of developing a manoeuvre; for example to try leaning into turns further pushing beyond your comfort into more extremes; turning tighter, taking off later in the more critical part of the wave or getting closer to vertical...
​
​
Most days fall into the middle range of conditions, so the One Board Quiver has been shaped to work well amongst average sized waves and the broadest variety of wave shapes; beaches, points, reefs, barrels and wedges; either wind chop or clean surf. Anything else?
​
Freakuency works well as a groveler in small, weak waves and at the other end of the wave size spectrum when the surf is probably getting out of your comfort zone. Guns and grovelers are specifically shaped to cope with those extreme ends of the spectrum, that is the trade-off with having one board for all. These very, very small and very, very large days are the exception and if you don't fancy those days, you don't have to get in the sea. Maybe you would benefit from a rest day after all :-/
​
When ordering Freakuency it can be custom shaped to suit your preference to either softer or more powerful waves.
PERFORMANCE BOARDS: UNLEASH YOUR SURFING
Right then - the psyche here is high, these have been designed for the conditions we dream of: Pumping. Big. Heavy. Fast. Steep. All the quality sessions.
​
Power is ever present in the waves these boards have been shaped for so the question here is, how do you want to use it?
Designed for large and powerful conditions these boards don't find energy and harness the power in the waves like the Arcadian board family; Performance boards flow over the surface giving the surfer control, allowing you to go where you want, drawing your own lines. Carving, maxing your turns and throwing spray, riding deep and steep in the pocket. Managing incredible speeds. Challenging and pushing limits.
