Want to up the paddle power, without having a full on mid-length crisis? Get your paws on a Lynx Read More
The Lynx is a stealthy, opportunistic predator. Stalking lineups with a feline economy of effort, poise and balance, don’t be fooled an easy, pleasing appearance; it’s got a lethal edge. With a generous, curvy outline, the Lynx was conceived to bring all the paddle power, easy speed and flow of a mid-length, but still turn off the tail in the pocket like your favourite shortboard.
Size-wise, it’s designed to fall between those mid length and shortboard categories - 6’4” - 7’0” - snagging waves like the former, manœuvring like the latter. Whether you’re paddle battle wearing from crowded lineups, lacking a touch of fitness or simply want to up your wave count, while still being able to jam it over on rail and belt lips, the Lynx is the board for you.
Moderate rockers combine with a curvey outline to marry instant speed with a lively turning circle, while medium low rails deliver hold through turns, forgiving but never corky. It’s those best of both worlds sensibilities that have helped make the Lynx an instant top seller.

PU construction by Euroglass. The “P” gets its name from both the resin and the foam: polyester resin and the “U” comes from polyurethane foam . PU is the traditional surfboard construction since foam core surfboards were invented. It is still the most widely used construction method today. PU is often incorrectly referred to as “fiberglass” construction – the reason this is incorrect is because the same exact fiberglass cloth is used in both PU and Epoxy construction types, it’s the foam core and resin that soaks into the fiberglass cloth (and foam) that differ. While PU construction is generally slightly heavier and isn’t quite as strong as Epoxy construction, it tends to have a more reliable and predictable feeling whilst surfing. This is due primarily to a slower flex pattern and denser foam than epoxy construction, which basically causes less “surprises” and more predictability while surfing, especially when making hard or sharp turns. PU construction tends to be more naturally conducive to color work, especially translucent resin tints. PU is also a bit less sensitive to water infiltration and heat than epoxy construction.
