VOLCOM SEA CAPTAIN
THE SEA CAPTAIN IS AN ON-THE-RAIL DRIVE SURFER WITH A LEGENDARY NAME ENDORSING IT.
A thruster inspired shape for surfers looking for on-the-gas edge hold. This board has a narrower outline allowing it to sit deeper in the water. The result is a strong edge that will lock into a turn. For the rider that wants a strong, powerful cutback, but also wants to feel more connected. This is a quicker reacting version of our other proven traditional surfer, the Conductor. Did we mention that this collaboration comes complete with artwork created by the bees’ knees of surfing? Now available with a new mid-size 4’7 version.

SKIMMER
A fast, responsive style of board where the rider’s position is centered with a more balanced body. These sharp rail, thin profiled boards react quicker for people that don’t have a lot of time to waste. Preferred by surfers that like to have more feel with their board itself – and not just on fins. They can break free easier for 360’s on the water or shuvits off it. A more forgiving style of board when riding behind a steep wake because you typically ride this style of board at a shorter length (making it less likely to dunk the nose). Because of how speedy these models are – you can get away with a shorter, lightweight length.
HYBRID
For riders that like a little bit of everything. They want to generate power through their bottom turns, but still be able to leave the waterline quickly and easily. A growing style of wakesurfing designed for bigger airs leaving the wake but can still lock in for a proper cutback.
SURF
Toss some buckets with some smooth, linked turns inspired by your favorite saltwater surfer. Traditional surf shapes have a thicker profile and a mellower rail/bevel allowing a rider to pivot a turn more from their back foot and are best ridden with either a deeper fin, or multiple fins. Riders usually apply more pressure on the back half of the board and generate more force through a turn. Still very capable of doing tricks on and off the water – just with a fluid like feel.
