Santa Cruz Surfboards carries a simple philosophy. Make the best damn boards possible to enlighten your surfing experience. For the last forty years, we've made nearly every type of board imaginable. From balsa logs to polyester guns, Retro fishes to modern aerial assault weapons, we've been there and done "that". "That's" not enough though. As surfboard design has changed, so has surfing. People are surfing bigger waves, hitting the lip harder and higher and surfing faster than ever. Some are ramping out on ridiculous waves, boosting unimaginable airs. As surfing evolves, so must our equipment. Modern surfing is more demanding. We make boards that keep up with it. Why pay for a board that's going to fall apart under your feet?
