Behind the scenes of a new Degree33 shape.

He's a super quick peek of Bill shaping a new board for us. If we like this one we may introduce it in the fall. We are looking to make an improvement to our surfboard line up and this one we are hoping fits the one-stick-quiver theory. You know, if you could only have one board and you wanted it to surf any condition... Could make a great travel board. We'll see... it heads to the glass shop tomorrow. We'll keep ya posted. Oh yeah, you can tell by the videos that we are filming the build of this one. Can't wait to see the video when they are done.

I bought my first surfboard when I was 10 years old, it was 8’ 6’ home made had a concave nose everyone laught at it but when they rode it they loved it. about ten years later David Noayva came out with the nose rider, the same shaped board. I paid $12.00 for mine. then I bought your fun board and it is fun just about like my first board but alot lighter. I love this board.

Luke, I like the video. Are you shaping something like the Firewire Sweet Potato? If you are, put me down for one.

Thanks,

I’m kind of like Carl. What I’d like to see is are more boards shaped for an older surfer. I’m talking something in the 8’6" to 9’6" range, good floater and easy paddler but shaped more like a short board, not the long roundnosed style board. Yea, I’m 57 and about 250lbs, not the nible kid I was but still love surfing. The closest board that comes to this is the Clydsdale. I’d just like more choices. And oh by the way, I’m in Texas, so we don’t have the better waves like SoCal so it would have to be able to catch Texas waves. I got my first board in 1969, went from learning on long boards to a 5’6" twin fin but never was really a long boarder. Once I got a little better, I went to a shorter board and different style surfing. The best surf for me was west coast of Mexico, would go to San Blas a couple times a year.
Thanks

I surf the 9 6 ultimate which is just a great board. I am really excited about the pipeline of the company and the uv2! I think it might be time for a new graphic for the boards. Cheers and I agree that a similar idea to the FireWire is a good direction

How To Do a Floater

March 07, 2024

When the wave is breaking in front of you, and you can still make it around the section, you have two options. You can either take a low line and go around the breaking wave, which will slow you down and cause you to miss a part of the wave, or you can perform a floater, which helps you increase speed and utilize every part of the wave.
