DICK BREWER / SHAPING LEGEND Dick Brewer and his innovative designs had a huge impact on surfing and surf culture during the late 60’s and 70’s. Dick Brewer along with George Greenough and Bob McTavish are credited by most for starting the shortboard revolution with their smaller more focused board designs. By the early 70’s Dick was focused on shaping Big Wave

Guns almost exclusively culminating in consecutive wins at the prestigious Duke Kahanamoku contest in 1970 and 1971 by surfing legend Jeff Hackman. Today, the idea of owning one of these masterpiece Brewer guns is still considered a milestone for any serious surfer... And here’s you chance.

ROCKET 9 / DUAL-CORE

TRI-FIN SETUP/ SWALLOW TAIL

“The Rocket9 is suited to your average waves like we find around California. It works great in beach breaks because it can be skatey when you want to generate speed, but then you step back on the tail and can absolutely hammer some vert 22

wall. I also think that with the shorter nature of it, it fits really well in the tighter transitions of beach breaks. I think the optimal range for this board would be 2 to 6 foot beach breaks.” – Dane Gudauskas 2017 SURFTECH SURF COLLECTION

These features are complimented by a Carbon wrapped beveled entry rail, which provides forgiveness as well as performance.

Mickey Muñoz has been shaping and designing boards for nearly half a century. The Muñoz name is one of the most respected in the global surfing community and his positive attitude, from his very first wave to this day, makes him the

consummate ambassador of surfing’s true stoke. The Ultraglide and Superglide are two of Mickey’s tested, tried and true designs, combining glide and maneuverability in fluid longboard shapes that bring heaps of fun to any lineup.

GLIDE SERIES / TLPC

2 + 1 FIN SETUP/ SQUASH TAIL

The Glide Series longboards from Mickey are designed to be stable, fast and maneuverable. If you’re trimming down the line or digging in for a power turn, the Ultraglide and Superglide boards feature foiled rails that create the feel of a thinner board. Subtle concave beneath the nose creates lift and stability for smoother nose rides and an advanced forward “V” makes it easier to turn when you’re back in the pocket. Built in our Tuflite Pro Carbon construction, the Glide Series boards are buoyant, durable and offer outstanding performance in a wide variety of conditions for surfers at any level of skill or experience.
