Shortboard Surfboards

Today’s shortboards have different profiles, rocker lines, fin systems and tails, all of which you need to consider when choosing the right shortboard for you. Consideration should also be given to how often you surf, and where you’ll be surfing, but you will also need to honestly assess your own abilities and surf style when buying your ideal shortboard.

Ocean Magic use only the highest quality materials and construction techniques, and provide shortboards that have been precision-made by hand. We manufacture and stock a range of shortboards at our surfboard factory, including household names like Pyzel, Aipa and Mark Phipps, but we can also make our own custom shortboard designs through our board builder suited to your every need. Ocean Magic specialise in shortboard production and notably the NS range by Nigel Semmens is built on decades of research and development of high performance shortboards, with a shortboard suitable for every condition.

Shortboards are ideal for surfers who have surpassed the intermediate stage and who now require a smaller surfboard. Progressing to a shortboard will allow you to turn tighter and faster on the face of the wave and around the wave’s critical sections quickly.
