Jeff “Doc” Lausch

Jeff “Doc” Lausch is the shaper associated with Surf Prescriptions, whose official site places its custom-board factory in Huntington Beach, California. His October 2026 guide to mid-lengths describes a fitting approach that begins with the surfer's usual waves, existing board, surfing frequency and desired feel. One example is the Slot Machine: Lausch describes a twin or twinzer with a single slot channel, combining shortboard influence with a longer rail line and glide. Those are his intentions for that model. The guide shows how his design choices connect board shape and fin setup to a particular surfer's aims, rather than choosing a mid-length by length alone.
