Tribute to Australian longboards from the 60sthe Trolley plunges the surfer into thepure vintage experience. It's a "involvement log born of the passion of Thomas for Old Mal de Noosa (think Nat Young in 1966). Less tolerant than modern models, it nevertheless rewards the surfer with incomparable sensations a ultra-fluid trim glideand pivot turns and the joy of pulling off a successful nose ride review thanks to its pinched rails. You'll rediscover the pleasure of engaging your whole body to tame the wave - every move on the board counts.
Visit Trolley is aimed at purists and nostalgic for classic stylethose who see the beauty in the challenge and the grace in simplicity. In short, a pure longboard which eliminates modern facilities to better enjoy quintessential old-school logging.

Outline Old Mal : large narrow nose and blunt (rounded) leaving just enough room for the two feet in front, maximum width set back slightly in relation to the center (pig influence) to promote pivot turns since tail.
Tail : shape "stocky thumb tail (between square and the round), with marked hips generating bearing capacity and stability in the turns.
Rails : strongly pinched 50/50 throughout, offering little in the way of tolerance but many finesse in water - they sink into the face and catch in the hollow.
Bottom : all rolled belly from nose at tail for a smooth glidingwithout concave (purist version) or with a light concave nose optional.
Rocker : sweet and progressivefew kick au tail.
A shape resolutely oriented towards trim and the nose ride in the hollowsacrificing a bit of easy to maximize classic sensations.
For seasoned longboarders or retro enthusiasts. If you already have good experience in modern log and look for rediscover the sensations of period boards - or simply meet a technical challenge - the Trolley is ideal. Medium gauges (because pinched rails = less volume) to light one heavyweight surfer must be highly technical. Not designed for learningbut for refine a style already mastered.
Optimized for clean point-break wavesboth fast and with face. Excels on long sections where to place a nose ride haut perché then back down to pivot. Likes moderate dip from classic australian spikes. Less comfortable in waves too soft (lack of concave) or too big (>1.5m, where its pinched rails forgiving).
In a nutshell: Noosa, Angourie, Byron Bay... or any spot offering smooth wall for sixties-style dancing.

Our interpretation of one of the most iconic and easy-to-use daggerboard designs. It can be mounted on virtually any type of board, from an 8" on a mid-length to an 11" on an imposing longboard. Speed, control, relaunch and versatility to adapt to all conditions.
This is the ultimate all-purpose longboard daggerboard: sufficienthookwhile providing a beautiful freedom of action. She does exactly what is expected of her - a perfect balance between all the elements. Thank you, George.
