About

A fast, clean-trimming performance log inspired by late-60s longboard design.

[Recommended Size] 9'0-10'0

[Who Is This Board For?] ・Surfers who prefer smooth trimming and speed over traditional noseriding ・Riders looking for a performance-oriented log ・Ideal for head-high to overhead waves

[Design & Feel] Originally shaped in 2018 for Tosh Tudor, the POPE was inspired by a classic Phil Edwards Honolulu model from the late 60s–early 70s — an era focused on creating the most performance-driven longboards of the time. The design avoids heavy nose concave, allowing for clean, uninterrupted trimming with no hang-ups. The rocker is slightly relaxed, and an extra half-inch of width adds versatility for a wider range of conditions. Because it doesn’t rely on a wide noserider-style outline, some surfers also ride the POPE as a glider or speed shape.

[Performance] Fast, flowing, and smooth — built for surfers who want glide and performance rather than traditional noseriding.
