The All New Gem Longboard In The Amazing Thunderbolt Black. The Gem Is A Collaboration Between Dan Mann And 3X World Longboard Champion Taylor Jensen. Taylor Asked Dan To Consider A ‘One Board In The Trunk’ Option For Long Boarders Who Want Both Trim And Turns; He Was Essentially Asking Dan For A Design That Would Land Somewhere Between His Tjpro And His Tjeveryday. Dan’S Response Was An Intriguing Intersection Of Shortboard Style Concaves With A Longboard Style Outline And The Same Fin Placements That Taylor Likes In All His Boards.
Setup With The Single Fin And Side Bites The Gem Is Going To Give You All The Wave Catching Of A Standard Longboard But With Superior Turning Ability And The Ability To Walk The Board. The Gem Is Our Best Selling Longboard For Good Reason, It Suits The Beginner As Well As Working Well For The More Seasoned Logger.
This Gem Is Constructed Using ‘Thunderbolt Black’ Technology, A 100% Hand Layup Carbon Fibre/Fibreglass Lamination Which Delivers A Competition Weight And Flex Surfboard. ‘Thunderbolt Black’ Uses A Fused Cell Eps Foam Blank Which Incorporates A Carbon Fibre Multi-Component Flex Control System Which Replaces A Traditional Wooden Stringer Which Along With The Carbon Fibre/Fibreglass Lamination Delivers A Familiar Flex Which Will Remain For The Extended Lifespan Of These Durable Boards. Thunderbolt Black Uses A 6Oz + 2Oz Carbon Fibre/Fibreglass Deck Lamination With The Same On The Bottom. The Fused Cell Eps Foam Blank Is Wrapped In A Core Shield Pvc Shell Which Affords Flexible Protection To The Eps Core.
What Does This All Mean I Hear You Ask. Well The Tech Sounds Great, But The Surfing Experience Is Awesome. The Boards Are The Most Durable On The Market, And The Spring And Response Out Of Turns Is Like Nothing We Have Surfed Before. The Gem In Thunderbolt Black Construction Really Is A Game Changer. It’S Not Cheap But Your New Thunderbolt Board Will Last For Years, Not Lose Its Colour, And Feel Like A New Surfboard Every Time You Surf It. No Other Longboard Construction Comes Close. These Boards Are 100% Hand Layups And Finished To The Very Highest Standard, And It’S Worth Remembering That The Board You Buy From Us Is Exactly The Same As Taylor Jensen Is Riding!
