Tired of longboards that feel sluggish in powerful surf or lack the responsiveness for skilled maneuvers?

The Longbird delivers a classically designed 9'4" longboard with full rocker and performance attitude, so you can rip through high waves and powerful surf with the responsiveness needed for tricky maneuvers and smooth, flowing turns that traditional flat-rockered longboards can't match.

Key Benefits

• Full rocker for powerful surf performance so that you get responsive handling in high waves and steep faces, allowing skilled maneuvers that flat longboards struggle with in critical sections.
• 9'4" classic longboard length so that you maintain excellent paddle power and wave-catching ability while having enough board to execute traditional longboard style and nose riding.
• Designed for high waves and low wind so that you have the right tool for those perfect days when conditions align for powerful, clean surf sessions.
• Attitude and playful performance so that you can surf with style and aggression, executing tricky maneuvers and smooth turns that showcase your skills and progression.
• Classic longboard design with modern performance so that you get timeless aesthetics and traditional surfing feel combined with the responsiveness needed for contemporary longboarding.

Engineered for Performance Longboarding

The Longbird represents a performance-oriented approach to classic longboard design. When the waves are high and the wind is low, this board comes alive, ready to rip through powerful surf in a skilled and playful manner that separates it from traditional cruiser longboards.

The full rocker is the key feature that defines the Longbird's character. Unlike flat-rockered longboards designed for small wave glide, the full rocker provides great response for tricky maneuvers and smooth turns in powerful surf. This allows you to surf more vertically, execute tighter turns, and handle steep drops with control and confidence.

The 9'4" length maintains the paddle power and wave-catching ease that makes longboarding accessible, while the performance-oriented design ensures you can progress your surfing and tackle challenging conditions with a board that responds to your input.

Perfect for experienced longboarders seeking performance in powerful surf, intermediate surfers progressing beyond beginner longboards, traditional surfers who want responsiveness, or anyone who wants a longboard that excels when conditions get good.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What's the difference between full rocker and flat rocker longboards?
A: Full rocker longboards have more curve from nose to tail, providing better performance in powerful surf with responsive turns and maneuverability. Flat rocker boards are better for small wave glide and nose riding but feel sluggish in bigger, more powerful waves.

Q: What skill level is this board designed for?
A: The Longbird is designed for intermediate to advanced longboarders who can handle powerful surf and want to execute skilled maneuvers. Beginners should start with more forgiving, flat-rockered longboards before progressing to performance designs.

Q: Can I nose ride on this board?
A: While the full rocker makes nose riding more challenging than flat-rockered longboards, experienced surfers can still nose ride on the Longbird. However, it's optimized for performance turns and maneuvers rather than extended nose riding.

Q: What size waves does this board work best in?
A: The Longbird excels in chest-high to overhead waves (4-8+ feet) with power and clean faces. It's designed for those quality days when waves are high and wind is low, rather than small, mushy conditions.

Q: How does this compare to a shortboard in powerful surf?
A: The Longbird offers easier paddling and wave-catching than shortboards while still providing responsive performance in powerful surf. It's ideal for surfers who want longboard paddle power with more performance-oriented handling than traditional longboards.
