The Banana Leaf is a modern performance hybrid longboard that has a unique blend of time-tested classic performance longboard design with modern longboard and shortboard characteristics for improved performance and extreme versatility. The most amazing part about the Banana Leaf isn't how versatile it is - but how well it performs and excels in all aspects of its versatility.

Fairly deep single concave under the nose fades directly into a light double concave in the center of the board, which carries through and deepens in the tail while a light spiral vee fades in through the rear third of the board. Works incredibly as either a single fin (especially with a flex fin), 2+1, or Quad+1. Surf it hard from the tail, trim and cruise from the center or walk it up to the nose. A super versatile, well-controlled, great feeling performance hybrid longboard.

Option 1: Hybrid Performance
Modern Low-Medium Nose / Moderately Aggressive Tail

The Option 1 / Hyrbid Performance rocker is the original Banana Leaf rocker, most notable for its incredible combination of on-wave and in the pocket feel as well as enchanced walk-ability/noseride-abiity. The most popular rocker option and the better choice for most small to medium waves. Beginner - Advanced surfers.

Option 2: High Performance
Moderately Aggressive Nose / Aggressive Tail

The Option 2 / High Performance rocker has a touch more tail rocker and a significant amount of additional nose rocker, closer to a more traditional high performance longboard rocker (though not totally rockered out; has a more modern nose rocker, reducing excess/unnecessary nose rocker), enabling later/steeper drops, more vertical maneuvering and general better handling of bigger, steeper, faster conditions. Intermediate - Advanced surfers.

Squash Tail


The most classic performance longboard tail shape. Your board will "bounce" or "pop" from rail-to-rail the quickest with the squash tail and maintain the most lift to the tip of the tail for extra speed in smaller, softer conditions. The original tail shape for the Banana Leaf, and the best option for those looking for the most agility and turning performance with a hint of looseness.

Diamond Tail


Similar to the squash tail, but with slightly reduced surface area. Provides a good chunk of the rail-to-rail bounce/pop and lift that the squash tail offers, but with enhanced grip and a slightly smoother rail-to-rail transition. An excellent choice for those who mainly plan on surfing their Banana Leaf in small/medium surf, but would like a little extra grip in some more sizeable/punchy/pitchy conditions.

Pin Tail


A pin tail will offer a noticeable change in ride-feel from the squash or diamond tail. The continuously tapering surface area results in more grip, bite and smoothness while drawing out the turning radius and adding control. Therefore, the pin tail surfs best in pitchier conditions and excels in medium+ sized surf.
