Saltwater Designs Surfboards

Saltwater Designs Surfboard are surfboards made from necessity, the shapes are made for specific conditions, and to fill the gaps that other surfboard brands miss. For 2012 we have developed new models which have already proven to be popular with surfers who want to have the edge in the water.

Surfboards shaped and designed by real surfers and shapers.

All surfboards can be pre-ordered with your artwork.

SWD Performance Shortboard

The SWD performance shortboard is specifically designed for performance surfing. with a single concave throughout makes it feel incredibly light and sensitive, the rounded squash tail offers amazing response. You will be surprised at how this surfboard will hold in the critical sections and the lively single concave feel that responds when you need it. This is definitely a surfboard that shold be included in any quiver. Sizes 5'10 6'0 6'2 6'4 6'6 6'8

Big Boy Shortboard

The big boy is a fuller outline shape with a low entry rocker. The Big Boy's balance of double concave bottom, diamond tail and refined tail rocker makes this board fast but still allows you to do turns with really tight turning arcs. A very versatile surfboard, good for first time shortboard buyers, older or heavier surfers looking for a performance surfboard or for surfers who want the advantage of catching all the waves. Comes with a five fin set-up, best ridden as a quad. Sizes 6'6 6’8 6’10 7’0 7’4 7'6

4 x 4 Shortboard

This surfboard can go anywhere.... that's why we called it the 4x4. A chunky, lower-rockered shortboard. with a balanced curve from nose to tail giving flow and feel. The single-to-double concave is well defined, giving extra feel and speed. The subtle fish tail allows you to manouvre from under the lip on shifty beach breaks. This is a small-wave board that glides at low speed and holds when your going fast. Comes with a five fin set-up. If you normally ride a shortboard you can go down a few inches on the 4x4. If you ride a 6'6 shortboard, a 6'3 4x4 would suit. Sizes 5’10 6’1 6’3 6’6 Review "U kidding me? Great board. Great design. A total wave hog. Love it! :)" "The 5'10 just fast, surfed it in Bali in overhead waves and it was not at all on the limit the 5`10 i call a rocket! Pipline board ! Pure Love!!" Due to the amount of positive feedback we have received, the 4 x 4 has become one of our standard shapes
