Channel Islands Surfboards’ Eco Carbon Tech (ECT): a new carbon hand lamination that will level-up your performance. ECT built boards are livelier, stronger, familiar-feeling underfoot, and environmentally responsible.

ECT boards are hand-built by the same crew of surfers that have been crafting your boards for years.  Available in PU/PE and EPS/Epoxy constructions, ECT can be custom ordered on any board allowing your board to be built just for you and never leaving you stuck between sizes.

For those wanting to take their surfing performance to the next level, look no further than Channel Islands’ ECT built boards.

SPINE-TEK® Replaces traditional timber stringers with a precision engineered composite spine, combining innovation and technology to deliver optimal flex based performance. Designed through the principles of elastic potential energy, SPINE-TEK® allows the surfboard to flex, load up on energy and then spring back to its natural rocker curve with drive, speed, power, and flow.

SPINE-TEK® is exclusive to Channel Islands Surfboards.

PU construction refers to a surfboard built from a polyurethane blank with polyester resin. This has long been the standard construction for surfboards and although does not have the longevity of epoxy resin, offers the most most affordable option.

Stringered Epoxy construction refers to a surfboard built from an EPS (Expanded Polystyrene) blank with epoxy resin. This is an alternate construction to the regular PU/PE layout, and provides advanced strength & compression resistance all at a lighter weight.
