Our employees come from diverse backgrounds and bring a high level of professionalism and drive to the REAL team. Join our team and live in one of the best locations for wind and surf in the world.Shipping cost will be calculated in your cart. *Surfboards DO NOT qualify for free shipping. C4 boards are designed to withstand a barrage of typical daily damage, while remaining light, lively and energetic under foot, and providing long lasting, durable and high-performance fun. The Fused Carbon adds strength, and provides pop, bringing a responsive, rapid spring back to the flex. Both the top and bottom feature fused carbon fiber, exo-skeletal stringers. ![]() The bottom is built layering multiple layers of 4oz fiberglass, the final layer being a wrap of “D” Glass. The Cork is painted white, except for strategically placed “peekaboo” windows, where you can see the natural Cork through the fused carbon reinforcements. The Cork deck is like a suspension system on windy days, and in larger surf and variable conditions, which so commonly create chaos and unpredictable performance in “epoxy” or EPS surfboards. Its spreads, and smooths out surface chatter, to provide a soothing Cadillac glide. Cork settles down vibrations and chatter, so prevalent in most EPS surfboards. A stark contrast of the typical (harmful and toxic) PVC foam sandwich shells and “stringers” used in most all other sandwich construction surfboards today.īut back to performance! Cork is a natural dampener which smooths out the ride of an EPS surfboard. Cork is the only truly renewable, natural living material used in surfboard construction today. The Cork “bark” is periodically “harvested”, with no harm to the tree, which then slowly re-grows its Cork shell. By layering glass both between the Cork and the EPS core, as well wrapping over the cork and around the rails, we create a “sandwich” with incredible impact and impressive tensile strength and durability, while remaining light weight.Ĭork, being a natural living and growing plant (harvested repeatedly from a living tree) is a renewable and sustainable resource. The Cork deck serves as a performance enhancing dampener, and also dramatically increases strength.Įxpanding upon the original, C3 (exposed cork) construction, C4 features the Cork sandwiched between multiple layers of fiberglass. Developed with Drew Baggett, of Old City Composites, C4 is built by wrapping a 1.5lb EPS foam core with full deck 1.5mm Cork. The continuing evolution of integrating all natural, fully renewable and sustainable Cork, into a durable and light weight, high-performance custom surfboard construction. Built around an overall low rocker paired to an almost traditional “fish” outline, this little sea monster is a mini-wave weapon.ĥ'3" x 20.25 x 2.30 - 28L EPS C4 ConstructionĪfter more than two years of development and testing, we are proud to announce the launch of C4 composite construction. ![]() It implements proven design details from a myriad of models like the Puddle Jumper, Bottom Feeder, Pelagic, and most recently the RNF-Retro. The HYDRA is a minuscule wave monster, melding more than 25 years of developing small wave fish and mini wave hybrids. ![]()
