Traditional Noserider / Log

If you would rather spend your time trimming and noseriding in small (knee- to chest-high) peelers and prefer the traditional feel and glide of a heavier single fin, then a traditional noserider/log might be a better choice. These tend to be a bit longer and heavier than high-performance longboards, and feature softer rails, reversed rocker, and large single-fin setups to provide stability while on the nose. These traditional noseriders thrive in perfect, long, small peelers, but tend to be more difficult to surf when the waves get into the head-high+ range. Because they are heavily glassed and are lacking a number of modern design elements (such as edge in the rail and a 2+1 fin setup, they are much harder to turn and control, especially when the waves get hollower. That being said, they are specifically designed for noseriding, so if your goal is to spend as much time as possible on the nose, then this is the go. Learn More...
