If you like smooth surfing and catching lots of waves the Egg is for you. A classic Takayama design that can be credited with introducing many modern day “Mid-length” advocates this style of board. If you’re not quite ready to “rip and shred” on a short board, nor are you interested in cruising on a longboard, then the Takayama Egg is the perfect solution. This model is an “eggy” shape that allows the rider to trim high on the wave in the middle of the board or race down the line on the tail. Your pick. The Egg is a great board for beginner to advanced riders.

Professional-level quality should be available to all surfers. Tuflite Professional is the result of 35 years of testing and multiple iterations of Surftech’s innovative moulded construction. An ultra light fused core is moulded for perfect replication of shape every time. The light core allows us to add extra protective layers and manipulate the flex of the board. The lay up consists of a high density deck and bottom layer inserted into a recess in the board, combined with unidirectional carbon rails plus multiple layers of e-glass and biaxial. The result is a drastic improvement in both break strength as well and impact resistance. The process of omega glassing, wrapping and overlapping the recess and rails of the board, is a feat of engineering allowing for added strength without adding weight. Tuflite Professional is the perfect blend of durability and engineered performance, built to elevate your surfing.
