Melbourne Surfboard Shop note: An 8ft mini longboard for glide, stability and early wave entry. It suits learners, cruisy small-wave sessions and surfers who want longboard feel in a slightly shorter package. Torq Mini Long 8'0 x 22 x 3 60L Futures The Torq Mini Long is perfect for those of you that want a bit more float and glide but still want to be able to turn with ease. This model is a great performer in ankle high to slightly over head waves and has tremendous wave catching ability. A fuller Longboard nose and a low entry rocker really helps this board get you in to waves nice and early – once you are up, there is plenty of speed and glide even in super small, weak conditions. The key to this models ability to perform is the perfect amount of tail rocker. There is just the right amount in this shape to let you negotiate & react with speed in steeper, quicker beach break waves without losing too much momentum. This tail rocker, coupled with a decent amount of vee through the back 3rd of the board allows the mini long to roll over onto its rail with ease and carve nice clean arcs even on small wave faces This Torq model features a Futures Fin system designed by Futures Fins of California - one of the most respected fin systems on the planet. The Mini Long comes with fin boxes for a standard Thruster set up – fins are also included with the board. Torq surfboards have well and truly created a new standard in the surfboard market, offering an unmatched combination of strength and performance. These boards ride well, are super tough and offer incredible value. The boards in the TET Torq range are the closest things we’ve seen to a bulletproof surfboard. Built using a molded epoxy construction that is heavily reinforced on the rails these things can take a real beating (compared to traditionally constructed PU & other Epoxy surfboards) – this makes them a great choice for the beginner to intermediate surfer or those of you that want a board that will really last.
