CJ-ORCL-S-106-VOLAN
Thunderbolt Black is our lightest and most high-performance based technology. The board is laminated with carbon fiber, which quickens its rebound rate and adds durability without significantly increasing the weight. Thunderbolt black blank construction features fiberglass internal flex components. Hand laminated with 6oz carbon fiber x 2oz fiberglass cloth on both the top and bottom. Thunderbolt black construction is typically light weight with our quickest rebound rate which makes this construction the most responsive in our range. Thunderbolt Black construction is designed for any surfer seeking to maximize performance on a board that delivers durability, speed and control in a wide variety of conditions.
Thunderbolt Red was our first technology and works beautifully in all conditions. Our Red blank construction features carbon fiber internal flex components hand laminated with 6oz x 2oz fiberglass cloth on both the top and bottom. Red is incredibly versatile with a medium amount of rebound which makes this construction amazingly user friendly and predictable. Thunderbolt Red construction is designed for any surfer looking for all around performance and feel in a wide variety of conditions.
Thunderbolt Silver was designed to offer a well-balanced blend of traditional performance, flex, and durability. Our Silver blank construction features fiberglass internal flex components hand laminated with 6oz x 2oz fiberglass cloth on both the top and bottom. Although Thunderbolt Silver is the most “traditional” feeling technology we offer it does still have the most amount of flex which turns up the performance value way beyond any PU board on the market. Thunderbolt Silver construction is versatile and predictable making it suitable for a wide variety of wave conditions and skill levels. If you love the feeling of a traditional PU surfboard and want to turn up its natural performance value than this is a great technology for you.
In 2016, Thomas Campbell lent CJ his Skip Frye Eagle to help him get through the Santa Cruz summer. At the time, CJ’s glider experience was minimal, aside from riding his father’s 10’3” Phil Edwards Waikiki. The speed and glide of the Eagle changed his outlook on what longboards could and should feel like. The long swoops and simplistic flow had him hooked, but he envisioned a glider that could also noseride, pivot, and slash, turning a novelty board into a daily driver.
Designing this glider has been a long time coming. Over the years, CJ has had some of the best glider shapers in the world build him boards, experimenting with different approaches. The thing that has always bothered him is that most gliders, while easy to catch waves on, are notoriously temperamental and hard to maneuver once you are up. The Oracle was built to break that mold, keeping the effortless wave-catching of a glider but adding performance like no other.
It features a generous rocker to reduce hangups, performance rails, a concave nose, tail flip for noseriding, and a lightweight glass job for enhanced responsiveness. If you want to surf well into your 80s, this is the board to master. A must-have for every surfer.(Concept designed by CJ x Ryan Engle)
