Overview

The Essence is one of our most sought-after, all-around, rigid boards. As a handmade board with authentic bamboo inlay, our trusty Essence is not only easy on the eyes, but lighter and stronger than a full fibreglass construction. Offered in two different sizes, The Essence has a low-to-moderate nose rocker for super smooth gliding, and a rounded-square tail & tri-fin setup for stable riding & easy maneuvering, all while helping you track straight (& look good doing it).
The Essence comes in two different sizes, 10'6'' and 11'6'', so you can choose the right specs for your paddling needs. It is an all-around planing board, with a moderate nose rocker which keeps the nose of the board slightly raised so you can tackle waves with ease and glide across choppier water. The rounded square tail makes for extra stability & easy control when turning or freestyling, while still being able to catch higher speeds as you would with a square tail board.

The Essence is handcrafted with authentic bamboo inlay which makes the board lighter and stronger than a full fibreglass construction. Aside from carbon fibre, bamboo offers one of the best weight-to-strength ratios in the game. Because bamboo is an organic & more environmentally friendly material, it diminishes the need for other materials that may be less environmentally friendly, therefore reducing board's ecological footprint.
