Mindcraft
Introducing the Mindcraft designed by Kelly Slater and Daniel Thomson, a minimalist shape designed for pure function. Built in our patented I-Bolic 2. Built with I-Bolic 2.0 Core with Fiberglass Lamination.
Wave Type
The Mindcraft is a small wave performance shape that works well in 2' to just overhead. It's rocker makes it suitable to fit in the curve of a smaller wave, but it also works well in a flatter faced wave due to its width and the straightness of its outline. And because you can ride it at a shorter length, it jams in the pocket and goes top to bottom very quickly.
Board Features
This shape has a relatively gentle rocker that's not too extreme but has enough tail kick to pivot nicely in the pocket. It's volume is hidden in the center with a rolled deck, and has a low-volumed rail with a soft profile for bitey control and instantaneous response. The torpedo nose provides low swing weight and makes it hard to catch your nose with its curves. The bumpwing roundtail is a tail design Kelly was really excited about for this shape that gives the outline a nice overall balance. The bulk of the board your need between your feet so you don't have to move around so much - you don't have to move forward for barrels or backwards for turns so you're in the sweet spot pretty much anytime you're up and riding.

Frequently Asked Questions
What size should I choose?
Use the size chart above as your guide — volume (litres) is the most reliable indicator for fit. Beginners and heavier surfers generally benefit from more volume, while experienced surfers can ride lower volumes for greater performance. When in doubt, go slightly larger for everyday waves.
What fins work best with this board?
Check the product specifications for the exact fin system and compatible fin templates.
What technology is this board built with?
This board is built with I-Bolic 2.0 Core with Fiberglass Lamination.
How do I repair a ding?
For small surface dings, use a solar-cure ding repair kit, available at most surf shops. Sand smooth once cured. For larger or deeper damage, consult a professional shaper or board repair specialist. Always repair dings as soon as possible to prevent water from entering the foam core.
Care & Maintenance
Rinse your board with fresh water after each session. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when not in use, as UV and heat can damage the foam and resin. Store your board in a padded bag away from heat sources. Repair any dings or cracks promptly with a solar-cure repair kit to prevent water ingress into the core.
