Torq Torq Longboard TET - Futures - 2 + 1 Fin - POP

“Great all-round stick. I’ve given mine a proper beating and it’s still in top condition. Highly recommended.”

8’0, 8’6, 9’0 – these are super versatile, user-friendly longboards. With a moderate entry rocker and a full outline, you get a board that glides in small waves and can be ridden from the nose. Progressive surfers will find them a great middle ground, with a slightly pulled-in tail and enough release to keep the board fast and loose. The 8’0 has a thruster setup for a funboard feel, while the 8’6 and 9’0 have the standard 2+1 longboard setup. In the Wood design, all sizes have a 2+1 fin setup.

The 9’1 and 9’6 are more traditional noseriders, designed for stability and trim. They are excellent for both developing and experienced longboarders who want to surf smaller waves in a traditional style. With little rocker and a wide nose, they are super stable and have plenty of glide. The 9’1 has a harder rail through the tail with a double concave vee for maneuverability. The 9’6 has softer rails and a rolled bottom for classic trim and hold.

Built with a TET construction, these boards are extremely strong and durable, designed to withstand impacts in and out of the water while remaining light and easy to handle.

Fin(s) included: Thruster set for the 8'0 and 2 + 1 for 8'6 - 9'0 - 9'1 - 9'6.

Construction - TET

The original Torq construction: a completely new way of building surfboards.

First, a blank is blown to the exact final dimensions with a precisely weighed amount of EPS. They are not shaped by hand or CNC'd; they are perfect from the start: perfect shape, perfect weight, perfect foam structure.

The blank is covered with biaxial fiberglass cloth and Torq’s unique Shield Skin, using a computer-mixed and measured volume of epoxy resin.

A second press mold, milled from a single block of aluminum with CNC precision, cures the resin and is heated to ensure perfect resin distribution.

What are the benefits?

Accuracy: no shaping, sanding, or guesswork. The entire process is controlled: foam density, resin content, fin inserts.

Minimal waste: no shaping means no shaping waste. The cloth is laid out dry, so offcuts are recyclable. Resin is weighed and applied, with nothing dripping onto the floor.

Strength: biaxial cloth is stronger than standard woven cloth, and the efficient layup allows a lot of it to be used. Torq blanks are made of high-density EPS, and epoxy resin is stronger than polyester.

Sustainable: a low-waste process plus a long lifespan means less impact. Production is powered by solar energy. All materials are sourced locally. The boards leave the factory in slim, chlorine-free boxes with plastic-free packaging material. The fin boxes are made from GRS- and UL-certified recycled plastic.

How do they surf?

The feel is similar to that of PU. Thanks to the extra fiberglass, they absorb chatter well without sacrificing the super-light response of the TEC. They feel pleasantly light and neutral: responsive yet forgiving.
