The Stepper was designed with 2 main parameters in mind, to catch waves as early as possible and to be the most stable and forgiving platform for nose riding.
The Stepper is a step forward in longboard design drawing on lesson from the past combined with our up-to-date knowledge of modern performance longboard surfing.
The outline of the Stepper provides for maximum lift and stability ensuring that your ‘take off’ will be easy and you will find yourself gliding around the softer sections of the wave. Step back on to the tail engaging those thinned out rails and enhanced tail rocker to swing the nose into the faster section. The Stepper has now set you up to move your feet gracefully to the nose tip, where the concave bottom shape and generous nose width will give you the time to pull your best pose.
Our boards are all made here in our small factory near Polzeath on the North Cornish coast and you are most welcome to come and see the process for yourself. We do our best to produce surfboards that are amongst the best in the world for quality at prices which importers cannot compete with on a like for like basis. We test all our models before putting them into production and normally have boards here that you can try. We can of course make you a surfboard to suit your requirements in different models, or a surfboard to your custom design with your individual graphic. Next time you are down drop in and see us.
We send any bought board to you as quick as possible; we do prefer to send boards out from Monday to Thursday on next day shipment. We wrap the boards in bubble wrap and put them in a cardboard box.
