The Shortcut


The ShortCut started as a NextStep, which we chopped 4" off the nose, blending in a nice forward wide-point outline for drive, lowered the entry rocker for good paddling and speed, and left a bit of thickness through the front for flotation.

We also widened up the tail a touch and kept it nice and round so it has a lively feel to it.You end up with a fast, steady feeling board, but the shorter sizes allow you to draw tight arcs and change your line in the barrel easily.

The solid paddle power lets you get in early, and it will drive down the line. It's especially fast as a quad.

A very versatile board that will surprise you in bigger waves, works well in all kinds of waves and for all levels of surfer. Get the 5-fin for max fun.

VOLUME CALCULATOR

Our volume guide can help you figure out a good estimated volume for you to base your next board off of.

Ability/weight/volume numbers are not exact, but can give you an idea of where to start. This chart is assuming volume for a basic performance board to be ridden in weak to good waves.

  • Generally speaking, you would want to ADD volume for a board designed for smaller, weaker conditions.

  • You would also ADD volume for a step-up/gun board for use in even bigger, more powerful waves.

  • Added weight (thick wetsuit, booties, etc.) should be calculated into your weight.

  • You generally want to balance the added ease of paddling (more volume) with sensitivity and performance (less volume).
