5’11” Channel Islands CI Pro (SOLD)

£395.00

Intriducing a 5’11 Channel Islands CI Pro, Stab in the Dark’s 2022 season champ. Britt’s winning shortboard design, as seen under the feet of Jack Robinson, was made in collaboration with Parker Coffin.

The most rockered board in Channel Islands current line, the CI Pro is the pinnacle of high performance. The continuous rocker which is curviest beneath your feet allows for quick directional changes while the low curve out the back maximizes projection. The CI Pro’s minimal single concave with a very slight double through the fins causes the board to sit in the water and creates a more connected feel at high speeds and through your turns.  The curvier outline matched with soft, tucked rails provide for extreme rail to rail surfing.

This particular board was shaped for Fourth team rider Renan Grainville, but was replaced by his new fourth quiver and only surfed a couple of times. In that respect the board is in excellent condition, with only minor deck dimples and no repairs. This is a true high performance shortboard, as surfed by the pros.

Note this has a pulled in round tail in order to give the board better hold and control in more solid surf.

5’11” x 18 1/8″ x 2 7/16″ = 29.5L

Technology

Base Construction

Base Construction (a polyurethane blank with polyester resin) is still considered the most versatile and all-round performance specific construction used the world over by touring surf professionals. At Fourth Surfboards only premium materials are used to produce top-quality boards; US Blanks at the core in blue foam and Hexcel Glass for the laminate bonded with Silmar resin for best balance between weight, performance and durability.

The Fourth construction method sees the board finished in 24/7 heat controlled environments to ensure curing times are at optimum levels to reach a finish unrivalled in Europe. The board is then sanded to a 240 dry sand finish ensuring that there is zero plastic lacquer on the board that can often look and feel horrible after a couple of months in the ocean.
