DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Design and shape
Looking for a lively board that keeps up with your ambitions? The PRISM SHORTBOARD's shape blends a compact outline with generous volume under the chest to maintain speed through turns. The pronounced rocker helps you dig into aggressive carves, while the thin rails offer a precise, connected feel when hitting the lip. The result is a board that pivots on a dime, perfect for stringing together rapid-fire maneuvers.
Sizes and Volumes
The board comes in two sizes: 5'5 (24L) and 5'9 (24.6L). The 5'5 feels extra lively underfoot, making it ideal for lighter riders or anyone seeking maximum responsiveness. The 5'9 adds a touch more stability and planing surface, helping you carry speed through weaker sections of the wave. Choose based on your build and style: go shorter for aggressive, snappy performance, or longer for easier paddling.
Construction
The PRISM SHORTBOARD uses a proven EPS/Epoxy construction with a fiberglass layup, creating a board that's both lightweight and durable. This core combination gives the board a responsive, springy feel without making it fragile. It comes ready for a Thruster fin setup, and the fin set is included so you can get out on the water right away.
How It Rides
On the wave, this board is incredibly responsive. The single concave bottom generates speed and provides a direct, connected feel. You can load up for a powerful bottom turn and project the board down the line without losing momentum. When you put it on rail, the thin rails grip the wave face securely, letting you hold your line through the tightest of turns. It stays predictable and in control, even when you're pushing your limits.
Who's It For?
The PRISM SHORTBOARD is aimed at surfers who have their fundamentals dialed: strong paddling, confident bottom turns, and a drive to perform. We recommend it for intermediate to advanced riders looking for a responsive board to take their technical surfing to the next level. Due to its high-performance nature and need for precise footwork, it's not suitable for complete beginners.
Buying advice
If you're looking for a board to rip turns and fly through fast sections, pick the size that best matches your build. If you're between sizes, sizing up slightly will give you a bit more paddle power. Don't forget you'll need a leash and a boardbag to get it to the beach safely. As with any board, we always recommend demoing it in a variety of conditions if you can, to make sure it's the perfect fit for your style.

FAQ - PRISM SHORTBOARD
The PRISM SHORTBOARD is for intermediate to advanced surfers looking for a responsive board to connect sharp turns and progressive maneuvers, especially in fast or hollow waves.
Its main advantages are the responsive single concave for instant acceleration, a fast outline for generating speed, and a durable EPS/Epoxy construction that provides a lively, high-performance feel.
It's available in two sizes: 5'5 (24L) for a snappier, more aggressive ride, and 5'9 (24.6L) for a bit more stability and paddle power.
Yes, it comes with fin boxes for a Thruster setup. The included fins are a great starting point, but you can always swap them out for any other Thruster-compatible fins to fine-tune the board's performance to your liking.
To keep your PRISM SHORTBOARD in top condition, rinse it with fresh water after every session and store it away from direct sunlight and impacts. Regularly inspect the fins and fin box to prevent premature wear.
