£649.00

Dimensions

  • Length: 5'0" to 5'5"

    This length places the board in the fun-board category, emphasising maneuverability and agility, making it ideal for critical and high-performance surfing.

  • Width: 20" to 21”

    A width of 20 inches provides a balance between stability and maneuverability. It’s wide enough to offer stability and float, especially in smaller, weaker waves.

  • Thickness: 3"

    Maintaining a thickness of 3 inches throughout the board provides substantial volume, enhancing paddling power and wave-catching ability. This thickness ensures the board remains buoyant and stable despite its shorter length.

Design Features

  • Pulled-in rails offer better grip and control in the wave face, allowing for sharp, precise turns and maintaining hold during critical maneuvers. This design enhances responsiveness and performance in more demanding surf conditions.

  • The single concave running throughout the board helps to channel water efficiently, providing lift and speed. This design maximizes drive and acceleration, making the board fast and lively.

  • A twin fin setup enhances speed and maneuverability, offering a loose, skate-like feel. This setup is perfect for quick, snappy turns and fast down-the-line surfing, making it highly responsive in small to medium-sized waves.

Performance

  • The board’s overall shape and design focus on being "fat, flat, and responsive." The volume distribution ensures float and paddling ease, while the flat rocker provides speed and drive, especially in smaller, mushier waves. The responsiveness comes from the pulled-in rails and twin fin setup, making it agile and lively.

  • Designed for critical, skate-like surfing, "The Day-time Robber" excels in performing sharp, quick maneuvers. It’s perfect for surfers looking to perform aerials, snaps, and other high-performance tricks.

  • This board’s shape won the 2021 Vissla Upcycle Contest, highlighting its innovative design and performance capabilities. Originally constructed out of recycled body boards and recycled fishing nets for the plastic components, this board emphasizes sustainability. It’s an environmentally conscious choice without compromising performance.

  • The big single concave helps generate speed and lift, while the flat rocker allows for quick acceleration and glide. This combination makes the board fast and energetic.

  • The pulled-in rails and twin fin setup offer exceptional maneuverability. The board responds quickly to foot pressure, making it ideal for performing tight turns and fast maneuvers.

  • Although designed for high-performance, skate-like surfing, the board’s volume and shape make it versatile enough for various wave conditions. It excels in small to medium waves but can handle more powerful surf due to its design features.

BUILT TO LAST

"The Day-time Robber" is constructed using 6-ounce fiberglass all around, offering a strong and durable build. This ensures the board can withstand the rigors of frequent use and handle various surf conditions, maintaining its performance and appearance over time
