Benefits of EPS/EPOXY boards
We chose this type of construction for our surfboards, because it offers numerous advantages.
Epoxy resin is more resistant to impacts and crushing than polyester resin.
The board is more reactive and can gather more speed
The EPS foam (expanded polystyrene) floats better, meaning that, for the same volume, you have more buoyancy than with a polyester /polyurethane board.
Shape
Co-creation by Olaian Ambassadors and Jeremy Smith (Hendaye)
Tail: squash to facilitate pivoting on the board.
Simple concave hull.
Strong kick tail for tight turns. Medium front rocker for good take-off in the waves.
Protective cover
The board has a Flexi Hex® honeycomb case inside a sturdy box.
This case is reusable in your surfing cover to protect it while transporting.
