“After a few years of testing we’ve found the formula for a board I can use in small conditions and cruise focusing on classic style longboarding but also working in descent waves allowing to do amazing nose rides in critical parts of the waves. That board is also super solid and I can travel with no worries about it being broken.”

Alain Minvielle has extensive shaping experience in California and a fine appreciation for the flow and glide of the classic style. With Edouard’s input they have created a Classic shape inspired by the classic 60’s model of Longboarding (no edge) while adding some more modern bottom line to find the perfect cruiser with surprising manœuvrability.
The critical part of this design is in the rocker and volume distribution – the curve of the rocker will allow you to maintain noserides in the pocket while gliding in small conditions as much as in larger waves. Finally the unique distribution of volume through the board, from a thick nose to a thin tail, will allow you to cross step with grace and turn with ease.
