You think you’re looking at a funboard? Think again. This is a shortboard on steroids.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn paper it’s a funboard and if you’re looking to catch green waves and do some turns, the width, volume and length means this board will do it all day long – it’s perfect for you. But in the hands of a seasoned surfer it’ll come alive. Think of it as a shortboard with a little extra width in the nose but all the performance features to surf hard and fast. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor any big guy rippers out there, longboarders wanting a shorter board or intermediates, look no further.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFin(s) included:\u003c\/strong\u003e Thruster set.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction - TET\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe original Torq construction – a whole new way to build surfboards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFirst we blow a blank to the exact finished size with a measured weight of EPS. We don’t hand shape or CNC these, they are made perfect first time – perfect shape, perfect weight, perfect foam structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe blank is covered in Biaxial fiberglass cloth and our unique Shield Skin with a computer mixed and measured volume of epoxy resin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA second press mold – precision CNC cut from a single block of aluminium – is used to cure the resin, heated for perfect resin distribution.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the benefits?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAccuracy – there’s no shaping, sanding and guess work. The whole process is controlled; foam density, resin content, fin inserts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLow waste – no shaping means no shaping waste. The cloth is laid up dry so off-cuts can be recycled. Resin is measured by weight and applied with no waste dripping on the floor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDurability – Biaxial cloth is stronger than plain weave and we can use a lot due to the efficient lay-up. Our blanks use high density EPS and epoxy resin is stronger than Polyester.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSustainable – A low waste process and a long lifespan = less impact. The production is run on solar power. All materials are sourced locally. Shipping is in slim fit, bleach free boxes with plastic free packing. We make the fin boxes from GRS and UL certified recycled plastic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do they surf?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe feel is similar to PU. The extra fiberglass means they absorb chatter well, without the super lightweight response of the TEC. They have a nice light neutral feel – responsive but forgiving.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Torq","offers":[{"title":"6'10 \/ Oyster Grey","offer_id":52918207775067,"sku":"TQ-A-BB-LE-0610","price":519.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"6'10 \/ Sand","offer_id":52918207807835,"sku":"TQ-A-BB-LA-0610","price":509.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"6'10 \/ Petrol","offer_id":52918207840603,"sku":"TQ-A-BB-PP-0610","price":509.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"7'2 \/ Oyster Grey","offer_id":52918207873371,"sku":"TQ-A-BB-LE-0702","price":539.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"7'2 \/ Sand","offer_id":52918207906139,"sku":"TQ-A-BB-LA-0702","price":529.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"7'2 \/ Petrol","offer_id":52918207938907,"sku":"TQ-A-BB-PP-0702","price":529.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/3960\/8155\/files\/TQ-A-BB-LE_Torq_TET_Bigboy_23_Legacy_Oyster_Grey.webp?v=1777976865","url":"https:\/\/www.surfandmore.nl\/products\/torq-bigboy-23-tet-futures-5-fin","provider":"Surf and More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
