Gun

The late Hunter. S. Thompson used to surround himself with all sorts of guns because, “if people believe they’re going to be shot, they might stay away.” While Thompson was a prolific journalist, he was also a paranoid maniac. So rather than amassing a vast array of street heaters, we’ve stuck with just two variations of the ‘GUN’ or step up series boards.

The first weapon in our arsenal is that of a classic semi-gun or extension of your normal board with slight increases in standard dimensions to paddle you in to big days at your home break or the odd shoot over to Grajagan. The second, and arguably more exciting to us right now are high-volume guns for outer banks, deep reefs and big wave spots across the Pacific. As the name suggests, high volume guns carry exaggerated volume for incredible paddle power but also allow riders to surf spots once only surfed on massive lengths or ski-assisted tow boards. This is no doubt a specialty category and one that we work very intimately with the aspiring hellman on each board.
