Get it
"Wanted a groveler for New Jersey shore break, but didn’t want to stress out over beating it up. Landed on the 5’6” Skipper and it has quickly become my go to board. It paddles, duck dives and catches damn near everything."
— Wes (5/5)
"Absolutely love this board! The 6’6” Skipper is the perfect blend of fun and performance for my 12 year old son. It paddles like a dream and catches waves effortlessly, even on smaller days. The quad fin setup gives it great speed and control down the line, and the color combo (Turquoise/Rip) looks even better in person—super vibrant and easy to spot in the water. It’s super light but still feels durable. Great buy for both intermediate and advanced surfers. Highly recommend!"

Q&A
Do you have any feedback for the 5’6” skipper in river waves? My local wave is on the mushier side. I’m 5’10, 190 and an intermediate ocean surfer. I ride a 35 liter 5’8 solid fish most of the time in the ocean. Thanks
Hello Mike - We have a large following of river surfer's who ride our boards. If your local wave is on the mushier side; we suggest you size up to 6'0" Skipper or you could do 5'11" RNF. Or even our 5'8" Heritage Fish due to its generous volume and flatter rocker. We have people ripping more powerful waves on 54 Specials, Twigs and Stumps too. But since your wave is on the mushier side; better to go a little move volume and/or length to keep it on plane longer. Thank you!
If I order a board and the ULTRA Hi-Perf Quad Fin Set, does it also come with the original fins or only the Hi-Perf set?
Yes, you will get both fin sets; the Hi-Performance Fins that come stock with the board and the ULTRA Performance Fins, that are an upgrade. Thank you!
I’m an entry level surfer, 5’9”, 130-135lbs, is the 6’6” skipper a good entry level board or do you have other recommendations?
Hello Tanner! For your size and weight a great the 6'6 Skipper would be a great option. If you wanted a little bit more volume check out the 7'0 LOG! Happy shredding!
Is the skipper or lost RNF better for smaller waves, and which would be better coming from a 8 foot log?
Hello Shane! Both offer similar volume and ride, it's really your personal preference. The RNF is a top seller of ours and all of our team guys claim it rips! Happy shredding!
Hi, I have an 8’ plank & love it. Looking for something for shore break. I’m a 5’8, 170 lb intermediate who surfs small, New England beach break. Was looking at the skipper & RNF. Any suggestions on board & size? Thanks!
Jeff! Check the 6'0 Skipper! It's great for shorebreak tubes! Happy shredding!
