Product Info

Silky smooth, even in junk waves, and possibly fastest board from Pyzel yet, The Red Tiger is John John Florence's new High Performance Shortboard unlike anything Pyzel has released in the past. It is the ultimate performance machine for small/medium sized, slower, weaker waves based on John's simple guidance - make it Fast and Fun. The board will easily turn your everyday sessions into something special and Pyzel believes it will outperform any other HPSB in under par waves AND still come through when the surf turns on!

Ride your Red Tiger around an inch shorter than normal HPSB, and a bit wider. Volume should be close, but go up a 0.5L to 1L liter for added zing in weaker waves.

Product Construction

Polyurethane/Polyester Resin (PU/PE)
A board built in PU/PE means that Pyzel uses a Polyurethane foam blank and they glass it with Polyester resin. This is how the majority of today’s surfboards are built. It is how Pyzel has been making boards for years, and these materials let them make a very stable, strong, consistent, and high-performance board that has the feel that most people are used to.

PU foam is closed celled, meaning it won’t easily soak in water if you ding your board, and that also means that it doesn’t absorb too much resin when getting glassed, keeping your board light. Many surfers prefer the feel of PU/PE boards because that is what they have ridden all their lives, and because they feel really good.

At Pyzel Surfboards, they use only the best foam blanks, highest quality fiberglass and resin, and hire the best craftsmen in the industry. The result is light, tight and bright high performance, reasonable priced boards that look beautiful and work great. Below are the glassing options they offer for PU boards.

Additional Info

The idea for this board was hatched when John began riding some different - fun boards -during some breaks from competing. By far his favorite in the last year has been Pyzel's new flat rockered, Funformance board, the White Tiger (5'6"), and he asked me to turn that design into something he could take back on tour to ride when the surf was less than pumping or on the weaker side.

The outline is a touch on the plump side for a HPSB, but the wide point sits a more traditional inch behind center, keeping the emphasis to surfing it off the mid to back half of the board. The wider tail-block squash helps to keep area in the tail which provides lift and drive, and also helps create pop when going to the air. A moderate hip by the front fins puts a break in the outline to help create a pivot point that allows for tighter radius turns and release in the lip.

The rocker and bottom contour is really what sets this board from other boards in this category. Its Pyzel's flattest HPSB so far and that rocker translates to easy, consistent speed from the moment you stand up, through flat sections and even in super weak, small waves. But, flat rocker can feel sticky and tends to make you surf flat, so Pyzel ran a single to double concave (JJF's favorite bottom contour) through the front 2/3 of the board and then blend that into a significant double concave/deep vee combo through the fins and off the tail. This bottom keeps the flatter board easy to roll rail-to-rail and the vee of the tail works to allow easy vertical surfing and short-arc carves, even in tight, pockety waves.

The thickness flow (foil) from nose to tail is balanced and clean, with the front of the board just barely thinner than the back half. The deck is flat-ish, keeping more foam (volume) out towards the rails. The actual rails are full just in from the outline (under the ball of your hand if you are holding the board under your arm), but are tapered to keep sensitivity and bite.
