8’ 4” Joyride

8’ 4” x 20 1/4” x 2 1/2”

This board carries a classic longboard outline with a fuller nose for effortless paddling and early wave entry. The moderate nose rocker keeps it forgiving on late or steep takeoffs without sacrificing trim speed once you’re in the wave.

A smooth, continuous rocker through the midsection delivers easy glide and momentum, allowing the board to carry speed across soft sections. Subtle bottom contours add lift and control, helping the board stay fast and stable while trimming down the line.

The rails were re-shaped to a medium profile—full enough for stability and flow, yet refined enough to engage cleanly when transitioning rail to rail. Overall, the shape favors smooth lines, relaxed turns, and controlled speed. 

The original fiberglass was fully stripped, damaged foam removed, and the shape refined with new bottom contours and re-worked rails for smoother glide and better control. A vintage fabric was hand-laid directly onto the foam and sealed beneath fiberglass using eco-friendly epoxy resin—creating a durable, fully water-tight board that rides as good as it looks
