Surfboards

Designed and shaped specifically for the Great Lakes by Wax Surf Co. 

Speed, control, and flow are the key concepts applied to this board. Its width, volume, and rocker make it perfect for smaller waves, yet the pulled-in tail allows for sharp top-to-bottom turns. Typically ridden as a twin, the board is reminiscent of a traditional fish but a single concave leading to deep double-V allow the board to plane and generate speed in dicey sections. The nose is very foiled out unlike most fish shapes to keep the front agile, skatey and playful.

This is a great small to medium wave board that is at home on open faced waves or point breaks. Speed is generated with the rounded hull and smooth profile. Yet is has a very responsive tail with the pulled in profile and double concave out the back. This is a great retro shape that trims like a dream yet has some performance aspects that allow it to hold up on steeper face as well. Trimming and drawings big clean lines is what this board is made for. You’ll find parts of the wave you have never surfed before. Its foiled out rails make turning  easy yet allow the board to hide a lot of volume in all of the right places.

This new mini-noserider shape was coined the "Collector" because when you paddle it out, it will undoubtedly collect! Built primarily as a mid-range, this board appeals to a broad range of surfers and surfing styles. Matt first designed the board as a quad, yet discovered he could get great noserides too. As he got more feedback from team riders and customers, he honed in on the board's true versatility. Most people prefer to ride the board from the tail and never walk the board but were sold on the wider nose for paddling ability. This model is the ultimate quiver killer. As for design, the board has a shallow nose concave going into a slight roll into a heavy double concave in the tail. To add to the board's versatility, we recommend the board with a 4+1 fin box configuration so that it can be ridden as a quad, a 2+1 or a single fin. The quad setup works amazing for quick direction changes and surfing in the pocket. The 2+1 setup gives you drive and control and you can lean hard into each turn. As a single fin you can take classic high lines with the wide point being forward and still execute smooth cut backs and noserides. The most popular and versatile size range is 7'4-7'10" for all around noseriding and turning ability.

Get ready to levitate. Adopting a similar deck and rockerline to the Bing Elevator, the Levitator combines step deck and concave with a wide outline and foiled down rails, allowing you to defy the laws of gravity and noseriding. Find yourself clearing through every section you encounter while still hanging ten with insane amounts of speed on the nose. Where the Elevator is more ideal in steeper beach break style waves, the Levitator excels in mushier waves with a little more slope, like your local point or reef break. Ideal for surfers who prefer more volume with stability, glide and lift in the nose, ride the Levitator 2-4” shorter than your typical noserider for optimum performance.

The main attributes of this board focus on early wave entry and stability for the surfer looking to enhance their classic longboarding style. The pulled in tail allows for quicker rail-to-rail turns, and easy set-up for nose rides. The board has a continuous easy entry rocker that is forgiving and stable for cross-stepping and late takeoffs.

The midsection of the board is a quarter inch wider than most of our models, lending to more stability while moving up and down the board. The blended concave and 50/50 rails throughout make for easy transition from the back of the board to the nose "To take you from the center of the board to the finish line!"

A new model inspired by and designed for Bing rider, Mele Saili, the Pocket Knife starts with a Magic Sam inspired outline. The wide point back and rolled/ turned-up tail bottom enables quick but smooth pivot turns and easy noseriding anywhere on the wave. Its narrow nose fits into tight pockets without catching and the blunt end allows the rider to hang parallel tens on the nose. Its thinned out 50/50 rails create optimal stability and the rounded diamond tail facilitates smooth and graceful turns. This board design suits Mele’s style because she likes to set up the board quickly and get to the nose without hesitation to achieve long noserides, then cut back and setup for the next noseride. - Matt Calvani, head shaper/designer

“The Pocket Knife is a slimmer noserider with nice glide for smooth wave entry. A board built to fit comfortably in the pocket of a wave due to its slender shape. I found it to be versatile in its noseriding and turning capabilities- A good board choice for traveling and adapting to different waves fast or slow.”- Mele Saili, Bing Rider ( San Diego, CA )

The Gremlin was made to get you excited about surfing on the days that are less-than-epic, and also to give you a taste of 'FunFormance' that will get you fired up in any kind of surf. The wider outline is complimented by a low entry rocker for easy speed and glide through the weakest, slowest sections, but we left curve through the tail rocker to keep it performance oriented and add to maneuverability. The bottom runs from single to double concave, with a nice bit of Vee running of the tail. This makes it a board that paddles easy, gets up and goes fast, and still has a snappy, drivey, high-performance feel to get you the most out of every wave you catch.

The Astro Pop is designed to give you some extra spark and easy paddle in weaker, slower waves, while still keeping a performance edge and super fun to ride in good surf. Built off of the Astro, the retro fish weʼve been making for years, the Astro Pop has a more pulled in nose and tail, with a little wing to help pull in the last 4 inches of the tail which creates a lot of curve in the outline, adding maneuverability without sacrificing any speed. The bottom has a deep double concave running through to veer off the tail which makes the board get up on top of the water in even slower, weaker waves and still easily tip over onto the rail at high speeds.

A mild beak nose helps keep the thickness up into the nose, but itʼs not overly chunky, more like a daily driver type board but with easy paddling aided by the flatter entry rocker. We recommend the Astro Pop as a quad, for speed, but it comes stock with a 5-fin setup to maximize versatility.

The Phantom is a Ghost squashed down, souped up, and with added volume, great for your everyday sessions in less than epic conditions. We left the same Ghost rocker but added more single concave to flatten it out through the center, helping to create speed and flow without taking away from the overall performance or feel of the original design. The added width in the tail and nose create a more parallel, fuller outline that helps keep speed up through slower sections and tight turns. The rails are full but not chunky, giving you more flotation and speed without taking away the sensitivity that we all love in our boards.

No matter if the waves are big or small or your take off is early or late, this all around cruiser packs a surprising punch adapting to all sorts of conditions. From the rounded nose through the low rocker to the rounded pin tail this midlength board provides smooth glides and fast turns. Added volume under the chest makes for easy paddling that helps to catch more waves.

Outline:The longboard in the front. shortboard in the back outline with a vee tail that starts tapering 2/3 of the way through the board turns on a dime. The rounded nose allows you to ride towards the front of the board which stays pretty flat through the low rocker to provide speed down the line.

Rocker:The low rocker gives the board plenty of contact with the water to maintain speed countered by a subtle lift in the tail for fast transitions.
