The Captain is our classic longboard that can be enjoyed on any day. With a wide scooped nose, square tail and low rocker, the Captain catches waves with minimal effort. The Captain is a traditional Noserider and oozes old school style and glide. Don’t be fooled by it’s foggy template, stick a Mikey de Temple MD3 fin in and you’ll be cutting a figure eight on bigger cleaner days. Quite simply whatever your style the Captain needs to be in your quiver. Finished in traditional resin tint with a single fin box and tail patch.

PERFORMANCE SHEGG

The Performance shegg is inspired by the original Shegg released in 2012. It has a classic egg template, with a round pin tail and a single fin set up, this board has been designed for the surfer looking for a fun single fin with modern performance. This board can be ordered with side bites making it very adaptable and super fun. It has a single concave giving lift with a slight ‘v’ through the tail making it easy to turn. This board is suitable for bigger more powerful surf and we recommend a flex fin to get the most out of this board.

Roundnose fish

Fins: Twin Futures • RRP: from £449

One of the most popular surfboard templates of all time, the fish has always been an essential addition to any quiver. Aesthetically stunning but very functional the fish is a shorter board that boasts a lot of volume. The Watershed round nose fish doesn’t detract from the classic style, if its not broken don’t fix it.

Inspired by Bob Simmons original design, this short, wide template has become a very popular sight in many lineups. Tweaked for today, whilst holding onto it’s thickness, you can choose from a variety of fin options with our mini simmons. The featured board has wooden Rainbow Fins hand made in California, but we also offer this model as a quad and we have even added our single fin box which has become our signature for this board. Whether you are looking for a true groveller or a traditional twin fin this board will cater for all surfers.
