Channel Islands Neck Beard 2 Spine Tek Surfboard

When something isnt broke, theres no need to fix it. That said, Britt Merrick and Dane Reynolds still felt a few slight refinements would make an already epic board that much better. And it did: The merits to this update can be seen in Danes new surf film The Electric Acid Surfboard Test.

A big fan of single concave, Dane asked Britt to turn the original Neckbeards double concave to single throughout. This changed the rocker landscape some, but in a very positive wayenhancing its wave entry, down-the-line speed, and overall control. They also widened the tail block 1/2 and added a slight hip, resulting in increased responsiveness and maneuverability.Dane prefers the Neck Beard 2 as a tri-fin, but those that like quads may notice added down-the-line speed. It comes with a five-fin setup to get the best of both worlds. Available in both PU/PE and EPS Spine-Tek.

About SPINE-TEK Technology:

Engineered by the crew at Shapers Australia, our exclusive SPINE-TEK partnership allows Channel Islands to build boards that are livelier and more responsive. Like a spring, they load up on energy, provide pop, accelerate out of turns whilst holding speed down the line, and the spine keeps its flex pattern unlike timber which looses it over time.
