THE SX PRO came to fruition after the success of its predecessor the SX01. We took some of the amazing design features in that board and refined them even more to come up with this little powerhouse.
With lower volume and more condensed plan shape, this board handles small sucky powerful waves with ease. It’s a staple for anyone who loves power surfing in smaller conditions.

About the board
General goal | theme of the board
A high performance board, for smaller punchy waves.
Conditions it's working best
Good quality steeper waves with bowl, shifty beachies. From just under waist high up to head and a half.
Maneuvers it does best
Vertical re-entries, tight snaps in the pocket.
Skill level it's best for
Advanced to Pro.
Paddle Power
Average.
What you thought of when you designed it?
This model is a variation of the SX01 which has become one of our most popular all round performance boards. The SX01 just needed a little refinement to achieve greater ability to attack sections and power pockets at higher speeds with more confidence, hence the evolution to the SX Pro.
What it possibly compromises on then?
It’s an extremely sensitive board so it needs a good surfer and plenty of movement. It wants to be pumped and kept moving the whole time so not an ideal board for the flowing retro style master. It likes a bit more punch, so it won’t like drawn out roundhouses on flat open faces.

Design info
Outline
Standard clean short board arc, subtle hip flyer rounded pin…
A look at the overall plan shape and you see an outline that has a relatively tight arc nose to tail, plus the added flyer round pin, so from either the first pump or the first bottom turn the board has great sensitivity and initiates turns instantly, has a very free easy pump action and goes top to bottom effortlessly, the hip flyer, adds an instant response as your weight transitions onto the back foot, so bottom turns can be squared off really tight allowing a more vertical approach to the lip with a super tight hook under the lip, the round pin allows it to be surfed tight while still keeping the rail engaged, meaning tight on rail power surfing..
Rails
Low volume, tucked bottom edge …
A lower volume rail offers good sensitivity as you initiate a turn, the Nitro has quite a full round bottom rail, extra tuck at the front fins, combined with the apex running closer to the deck, this combo offers nice hold on the face into a late sucky drop, tight snap in the pocket or high speed attack, the tucked edge in the tail has great control while drifting sideways and backwards, being less prone to catching a rail and the board flipping underneath you..
Rocker
Full performance rocker…
With this amount of rocker, the board stays nice and loose, super sensitive and fits into tight pockets, allowing you to attack sections at speed..
Bottom
Single concave..
The concave helps the inside rail engage earlier, initiating turns faster, while also directing water off the outside rail in a downward direction, applying Newtons 3rd law of physics, sensitivity plus when combined with all the other features also adding sensitivity..
Deck
Standard
Deck is a fairly standard roll, due to the low volume rail, this offers a slightly faster reaction time into turns...
Fins
Thruster
For top to bottom surfing the thruster will always be the better option..
Final Statement
A good high performance board that you can rip the bags out of in sucky waves. This board is ideal for someone who enjoys small wave power surfing.
