MONSTA 8
The Monsta 8 is one of the most versatile surfboards on the planet. From waist high to double overhead plus, everyday surfers to World Title contenders, average surfs at home to annual trips chasing waves. No matter what, it won’t let you down. In competition, it’s the go-to for the Traktor Team in QS contests in small, weak beachies to elite Dream Tour locations like Snapper, JBay or Trestles – and it’s been on the podium at all of them.

MONSTA 6
The Best All-Round Performer Just Got Better
Finally, after 3 years of enjoying the Monsta 3, Iʼve managed to create an advanced update that our team is really happy with! Monsta 6 is the brand new update of our best seller the M3.
I have worked closely with Parko, Julian, Owen, Ace and Dusty on new variations of the Monsta 3 since well before the Quik Pro in March 2015, which has led to the final product design of the M6. From Julian’s magic shortboard that took him to the infamous Jbay final, to Joel’s absolute favourites from the last 6 months, a lot went into this one.
It features slightly deeper concave overall and a smoother continued rocker compared to the previous Monsta’s. To compliment all of this I’ve added a touch more curve in the tail rocker with fractionally fuller/softer rails. All of these subtle changes – based on feedback from the Traktor Team and mates that surf all week have resulted in the best Monsta yet!

LSD TEX FCSII Clear XF- 20181
LSD TEX
“The Tex is a super stubby little thing for when the waves are super small or you’re just feeling lazy.
The bloated girth and thickness of Tex will get you trimming and turning on any wave that breaks. The contemporary single into double concave gives this craft plenty of spark. A balanced outline combined with a large round squash tail helps with the control of this little animal.
The Tex should be ordered approximately 6 inches shorter than or three four liters more than your conventional short board.”

SA FACE DANCER XF 19 FCSII
Simon Anderson Face Dancer
A High performance small wave quad option all rounder for waves 1 to 5 feet.
Medium nose and tail rocker with deep single concave to a slight vee right on the tail to assist quad rail to rail control. Low soft Simon rail to help hold and facilitate deeper carves through turns on the wave face.
The increased width and nose area enables you to surf a little shorter as per World Tour trends. Works best all round as a thruster but has the ability to be looser and faster as a quad in weaker waves.”
For clean point or reef waves – flat inside foil side thruster fin set and double sided foil back quad fins. For general beach breaks conditions – concave inside foil side thruster fin set with 70 30 foil back quad fins.”
