Friday, April 19, 2024 URBNSURF Sydney! Get Your Quiver Ready! With the opening of URBNSURF Sydney, the team at Onboard have handpicked our favourite range of surfboards that are perfectly suited for the wavepool's diverse wave settings.From expert surfers looking for thick, barreling slabs, to beginners learning the ropes in the gentle bays, we've got a board to match your skill level. Our expertly crafted surfboards are designed to maximise your stoke and help you make the most of your URBNSURF experience. SESSION: EXPERT BOARD: CI 2.PRO The CI 2.PRO is the perfect board for the expert session at URBNSURF as the continuous rocker profile and narrow outline compliment the wave well. The expert session is a thick, barreling slab that requires advanced surfers to navigate the late drop and stay tight in the pocket throughout the ride. The CI 2.Pro's pulled in tail will allow the board to grip the face and stop the board from sliding out. SESSION: ADVANCED BOARD: CHRISTENSON OP3 The Christenson OP3 is an all-round performance shortboard that will enable surfers to thrive in the advanced session at URBNSURF. The advanced session is a combination of point-break style waves, and barrels. The OP3 was designed for waves with push and likes to be surfed top to bottom, whilst holding well on rail through powerful carves. The swallow tail provides the board with release through your top turns, whilst also managing slide when engaged in the face of the wave. SESSION: ADVANCED TURNS BOARD: DUMPSTER DIVER 2 The Dumpster Diver 2 in Spine-Tek has instant down the line speed and holds really well on rail. This will allow the board to be pushed to its limits during the advanced turns session at URBNSURF. The Spine-tek construction will give the board added spark and will feel more maneuverable under your feet. SESSION: INTERMEDIATE BOARD: G-SKATE The intermediate session is a playful medium-sized wave offering a lot of potential for fun carving turns. The G Skate has a lot of get up and go speed thanks to its light single to double concave, low entry rocker, and wide point forward. This will be great in the intermediate session as the board will do all the work for you and let you focus on improving your surfing. SESSION: PROGRESSIVE TURNS BOARD: M23 The progressive turns session is ideal if you want to work on your technique with a consistent shape and a rippable pocket. To match this the M23 will enable you to gain speed and flow easily, and once back on the tail, turn like a shortboard. This is a great board for this session and it caters to the widest possible type and size of surfer. SESSION: CRUISER BOARD: CI MID TWIN Boasting a sleek, egg-like template with low entry rocker and foam a tad forward for ease of paddle and effortless trim speed, the CI Mid scoots, squirts and swivels thanks to contemporary features like double-barrel concave, gradually accelerated rocker, and hard, slightly tucked rails through and off the tail. This board will surf great in the cruiser session that offers fun, gentle pointbreak-style waves. SESSION: SURF IN THE BAYS BOARD: CATCH SURF 8'0 LOG The bays offer safe, gentle, rolling green and whitewater waves perfect for those who are learning to play in the waves or for surf frothers wanting to introduce their loved ones to surfing! The 8'0 Log is fun for all skill levels and has tons of float and is easy for wave catching. This is great for this session and will help improve your surfing quickly.
