29 YEARS OF STOKE! Surftech was founded in 1989 in a quest to utilize new technologies that would bring game changing surfboard constructions to surfers of all abilities and locations. Surftech builds boards for many of the best shapers and surfers on the planet and we were the first to do it! Today we continue to utilize the most advanced composite materials and construction techniques available. We push the boundaries of sustainability in our boards and methods and now have the backing from Sustainable Surf to verify that. The Art of Technology meets Percision Manufacturing. Filipe Toledo on the Modern 2 Fusion Dual-Core


THE PERFECT FUSION OF EPS AND PU! Surftech's patent pending Fusion Dual-Core Technology is the perfect blend of EPS and PU foams engineered to give you the ideal feel while increasing the performance. The float and response comes from the EPS in the middle of the board while the PU in the rails gives you the feel and drive in and out of turns. These two foams are brought together with a TPU (on high-performance models), or EVA (on thicker alternative models), which acts like a shock absorber in your board. We also engineered the PU on the rails to maximize the swingweight of your board for smoother airs and snaps. Give it a try and take your surfing to the next level.

TWIN-FIN + TRAILER SETUP / SWALLOW TAIL

TWIN-FIN + TRAILER SETUP / SWALLOW TAIL The Modern 2 / Fusion Dual-Core utilizes a fusion of EPS and PU foams to bring you the perfect balance of float, response, and performance. The dual foams are laminated together with an EVA "shock absorber" to maximize the fell of the Modern 2. When Filipe is training for the world tour you can find him ripping the Modern 2 because it works great in small to head high waves. The Dual-Core has engineered swing weight for quick snaps and easier rotations in the air.

The Modern 2 Fusion-E2 was designed to be a cross breed between the famous MR Twin of the 80’s and the high performance thrusters of today. Filipe wanted a board for training in small mushy conditions and he asked for something different than what he rides on the tour. The Modern 2 has incredible speed and drive due to the combination of concave and rail shape. This board will change the way you surf small mushy to head high waves.

The Disco Inferno Fusion Dual-Core is a performance shape in an All-New Dual-Core construction. It will handle better waves with the float and response of EPS combined with the feel of PU. With a similar bottom configuration and rocker as the Disco, the Disco Inferno has some minor changes to increase the drive and control in larger surf. The Disco Inferno is idealy sized shorter than your regular short board.

2018 SURFTECH SURF COLLECTION

The Disco Cheater Fusion-E2 is a copy of the Disco model with all its features, the same rocker, foil and concaves. It was simply a recreation of the Disco’s outline, but with adding more area overall, making it more stable and easier to catch waves on those very small days. The Disco Cheater still turns like the Disco and it should be a great addition to the quiver if you want a more relaxed design that can surf in anything. Size: 5’4” 5’8” 5’10” 6’0” 6’4”

ULTRA GLIDE

TUFLITE-PC

2 + 1 FIN SETUP / SQUASH TAIL The Ultra Glide Tuflite-PC was designed to be stable, fast and maneuverable. If you’re trimming down the line or digging in for a power turn, the Ultraglide’s foiled rails create the feel of a thinner board. Subtle concave beneath the nose creates lift and stability for smoother nose rides and an advanced forward vee makes it easier to turn when you’re back in the pocket. No board catches waves as easily as a Munoz. Size: 11'0"

TRI-FIN SETUP/ ROUNDED PIN TAIL

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 your chance.

These wood veneer replicas of the original started as a hand shaped 9’6” “master” by Dick in his shaping bay located on Oahu, Hawaii. From there, the master was sent to the Surftech factory for meticulous duplication and manufacturing. Each board will come with a numbered certificate of authenticity signed by Dick and will be available on a strictly first come first get basis. Only 100 boards were made worldwide, now that’s limited! Size: 9'6"
