Seaside – Futures Quad

HEY ROB, WHAT’S THE SEASIDE..?

It’s just the Go Fish evolving into something new. The Go Fish is fast and feels skatey and loose, and I love it, but after riding it for a few years, I wanted a more high-performance feel – more carves, tighter turns. So the Seaside is all about refinement… less volume in the tail, narrowing the ends of the swallowtail, creating more curve and tapering the nose. All the elements to rip whilst keeping the Go Fish cruisey and fun.

Why is the Seaside only available as a quad?

I decided that if I was going to make a quad, I’d make one that’s strictly a quad… designing the concave and bottom contours around that idea. I redesigned my entire concave setup – the one I’ve used on the Moonbeam and Go Fish – with the quad setup in mind, so that everything works together.

Why did you name this board after your home spot, Seaside?

Naming surfboards is perhaps the hardest thing you can do on the planet [laughs]. It’s simply the perfect shred stick when I’m surfing at my home spot, Seaside.

Why is the Seaside built in Helium?

The first one I made for Tahiti was LFT and I rode it in 6-foot barrels. But almost everyone surfs a shape like the Seaside at beach breaks and small point breaks, so we made it in Helium because it’s really light, highly responsive, very flexible with a softer feel and extremely durable. I reckon it’s the best option for a shape like the Seaside in smaller, weaker waves. A small-wave shredder.
