Stretch Boards 983 Tower Place Santa Cruz, California 95062

  • Lil Buddy Board

Designed as an all around board with small wave performance capabilities, the lil buddy can hang in there when the surf is pumping yet still go vert and carve like the sword when the waves are less than ideal.

If you’re into contest surfing then you know that the waves aren’t guaranteed to be stellar when you pull on that singlet. Even if you don’t find contests are your thing then you’ll appreciate how the fuller tail, double concave bottom and spherical rocker all add up to getting more responsiveness and speed to give you that added umph that you need when milking one through.

Options

Try it with a flat deck for a fuller rail profile or with a thin stringer in lightweight EPS/EPOXY or EPS TECH for some spring and pop when you want to get a small wave flicker.

Fins

Tri-fin only

  • Choose from FCS Fusion or Future Fin System

Outline

Balanced and proven template of the S2 offers predictability and control. The fuller tail block width allows you to carry speed over flat sections and drive hard off the tail in weaker waves.

Rocker

B profile centerline rocker combined with the concaves add to a spherical/continuous rail rocker for high performance surfing which allow you to lean on rail and carve like riding our “sword” model and turn it vertical with ease.

Rails

Medium 50/50 rails retain moderate foil without being too raced out and twitchy at slower speeds.

Bottom Contours

Single to double concave allows for destabilization and lift in the tail for responsive rail to rail transitions and straightens the centerline for more speed and quicker attacks off the rear end.

Construction

Available in Stretch’s exclusive EPS TECH, epoxy or polyester.

Ever just feel like you need something to keep you motivated? Sure you can have fun on just about anything that will allow you to catch waves. Novelty boards, specialized boards or just plain old wave farming logs are one thing but having the urge to slice, dice and gaff whatever wave face ends up in front of you is another. I'll be your Lil' Buddy!
