Its shape makes waves easy to catch and suits laid back, stylish manoeuvres such as noseriding. The core is polyurethane foam, which gives the buoyancy and the solid, traditional feel that many longboarders prefer. The board is laminated with fibreglass cloth and sealed with polyester resin, which adds strength and durability, and the natural flex of a PU board gives a lively, responsive feel underfoot, especially on small, slow waves. The soft rails are forgiving and help the board run smoothly over mushy sections. The board in stock is 9 ft 0 in long (about 274 cm), 22.5 in wide (about 57 cm) and 2 3\/4 in thick (about 7 cm), with a volume of 68 litres.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConstruction: polyurethane foam core, fibreglass laminate, polyester resin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength: 9'0 (about 274 cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWidth: 22.5 in (about 57 cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThickness: 2 3\/4 in (about 7 cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVolume: 68 litres\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStyle: longboard for smooth, stable, relaxed riding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"REEF","offers":[{"title":"9'0 x 22.5 x 2 3\/4 (68L)","offer_id":67999448727865,"sku":null,"price":8499.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0934\/1730\/8473\/files\/reef-pu-longboard-surfboard-1.jpg?v=1794047242"},{"product_id":"reef-skimboard","title":"Skimboard","description":"\u003ch4\u003eDescription\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Reef skimboard is a high-density plywood board with an EVA deck that gives supreme grip underfoot. It is available in three lengths so that riders can choose the board that suits their size. Beginners can ride the board straight over a thin layer of water, intermediate riders can ride at speed and do tricks on the flat or in the foam, such as 360s and varials, and experts can ride at speed into the waves and surf back to the beach. The board is designed for kids, teenagers and adults weighing more than 40kg. It must be used on a thin layer of water, should not be used on very windy days and should not be used where there are pebbles or rocks on the beach.
