Surfboards

HIGH PERFORMANCE SERIES
This board is fast and loose! Its design is extremely versatile and dependable in a wide variety of surf conditions. This model features a combination of single concave, double concave and a touch of vee out the tail for smooth rail to rail transitions. The rocker configuration and bottom contours allow instant acceleration, drive, and speed, The High Performance Shortboard maintains the maneuverability needed for radical directions, aerial and power surfing. This design continues to set the standard for cutting edge, performance surfing. This model has been ridden by some of the world's best professional surfers and has been tested and refined based on rider feedback.
DIAMOND BACK
This model is an all around performance shortboard specifically designed for radical, high performance surfing. The Diamond Back features a special diamond tail which shortens the rail line, giving the board more snap off the top. This design has single concave through the middle of the board with a deep concave through the back third. This board turns quickly, but also maintains speed. It's a great design for headhigh to slightly overhead waves that need to be destroyed.
SKELETON FISH
This design is ideal for, but not limited to, small to medium sized surf. The full outline, along with the single to double concave bottom allows for increased planning speed, acceleration and looseness. The tri fin design maintains the drive and carving power of the standard thruster. We have had great success with the double-wing swallow in this design. The double-wing swallow allows for extra width under the front fins for looseness, while also allowing for the tail to be pulled in for extra control and carving. These boars fly through flat spots, and allow the rider to find pockets of speed in even the most gutless surf.
FLIGHT DECK
Designed primarily for small to medium sized surf, the Flight Deck features a slightly fuller outline and a wider tail block than a standard shortboard. This outline, along with slightly deeper concaves allow this design to catch waves easily and slingshot through mushy sections at the same time. These boards maintain the snappy characteristics of the high performance shortboard while giving the rider a bit more glide through flat sports. This model is a must for making the most of everyday surf.
FIREFLY
The firefly is the culmination of many years of experimentation. The Firefly accelerates quickly, is snappy off the top. The Four Fin design is loose, yet maximizes drive and holding power. When on rail, both fins are facing the same direction, minimizing drag and eliminating the anchor effect of a third fin. Stretch your imagination. Think for yourself. Fly one today.
BULLET FISH
The Bullet Fish has a wider round nose for catching waves easy and for gliding through sections. The twin fin side fins with small center fin make the board very loose but also allow the board to drive and accelerate very quickly. The bottom features include a single concave running from the nose through the center with a double concave vee out the back one third of the board. This year we are also offering this same board with a slightly different fin placement for surfers who prefer a standard tri fin set up. Both of these boards are excellent for learning tricks such as tail slides, airs, and reverses. Try one today and turn your local break into a skate park!
THE BIG GUY
This board is designed for the larger framed, mature surfer or for someone who just likes a bit more foam. This wider, fuller outlined version of the High Performance Shortboard features increased volume for floatation, padding power, and wave catching. At the same time this design maintains the characteristics which allow for radical direction changes and power surfing.
PISTOL
The Pistol is for medium to larger surf. It features a sleek outline with a smooth entry rocker. A fair amount of tail rocker allows for snappy turns and the board fits nicely into the curve of the pocket. The bottom contours feature a blend of flat, vee, and double concave vee for a balance of speed and control. These boards have fairly narrow tails (usually round-pins or narrow round-squares) for holding power and control. This is the model for good waves and good surfing. They are the perfect boards to take on a surf trip!
BIG GUN
In big surf you need a board that paddles well and catches waves easily. You also need a board that is predictable and easy to control in heavy situations. The Big Gun accomplishes this with its smooth entry rocker and an even, continuous curve throughout the board. The bottom features subtle vee in the nose, a flat or light vee throughout the center, with a flat panel vee running out the tail. This, in combination with proper fin placement, makes for a truly high performance big wave board. Team tested from Maverick's to the North Shore. If you've got the balls, we've got the board!
FUN SHAPE
This versatile design paddles and catches waves with ease. It floats like a longboard, yet turns like a shortboard. The Fun shape glides through slow and weak sections, but still allows for ripping when the waves are lining up. This design has also proven to be an excellent board for beginners because of floatation and stability.
LONGBOARD
A smooth blend of old school and new school. COLE'S longboard design features a concave nose for lift while noseriding, moderate vee through the center, and a tri hull bottom running out the back 1/3 of the board. It also has a moderate tail-rocker for maneuverabilty. These modern bottom contours, paired with the advances in lightweight material make these longboards extremely loos and responsive. These features give the boards incredible trim and glide which make COLE longboards tough to beat for all-around fun in small to medium sized surf.
BLACK LABEL SERIES
The Black Label Series Features the best in the high performance materials and extra's. All BLS boards come standard with first quality Clark Foam blanks (Ultralight, Superlight or Superblue blanks available), s-cloth fiberglass for increased strength, and ultralight honeycomb glass-on fins, or the removable fin system of your choice (Future, FCS, etc.). All BLS boards contain T-Band stringers in order to provide additional strength and protection from breaking in half. The Black Label Series basically provides the serious surfer with the kind of high performance equipment that the pros ride. All COLE models are available in the Black Label Series.
