Surfboard Channel Island Rocket Wide Spine-Tek

The Channel Island Rocket Wide is the incredibly user-friendly cousin of the Rocket 9.

“My brothers and I loved the speed and control we were feeling with the Rocket 9 and we wanted to see how we could apply those same levels of fun and performance to a board for small and gutless waves.  The Rocket Wide features a wider tail block to skate across flat sections and a wider nose area to accommodate for better paddle power.  It’s a shorter, wider skate machine designed to lift the fun factor when the waves are not a their best.  So don’t let those small days get you down cause the Rocket Wide is ready for blast off!!” -Dane

Available stock in 3 or 5 fin configurations.

Advanced surfers will ride this 2″-4″ shorter than their height.

EPS Epoxy Spine-Tek Construction:

The Spine-Tek construction is the result of the collaboration with Shapers Australia. SPINE-TEK is a precision engineered stringer spine utilizing a unique composition of fiberglass and resin. SPINE-TEK is based on the principles of elastic energy, to flex under pressure and then return the surfboard back to its natural rocker, providing surfboards with a more lively and responsive feel.

Performance through innovation, SPINE-TEK® is a world’s first with its unique fiber-based composition, delivers optimal flex based performance through the principles of elastic & kinetic energy. Through this process the surfboard loads up on energy and then releases, generating additional drive, speed, power & flow.

Weighing a mere ¼ of a pound and installed in the surfboard deck, SPINE-TEK replaces the traditional heavier timber stringers and is virtually break free.
