CONSTRUCTION
Thunderbolt Technology
Thunderbolt Technology utilizes advanced materials and technology to decrease weight while enhancing performance, flex characteristics, board control, and durability. Mass-produced epoxy boards are corky and stiff. While light and durable, they simply don’t ride well. But Thunderbolt’s hand-built boards take superior epoxy materials to an entirely different level. These boards provide the feel and sensitivity of a good poly board but deliver performance far beyond traditional epoxy pop-out constructions. Indeed, those who ride these high-tech epoxy boards claim they actually feel better than polyurethane. Thunderbolt boards are 100% hand layups. They begin with an EPS foam core with multi-component carbon fiber stringer systems that produce engineered flex and twist for a more lively, responsive performance. Proprietary designs employing internal carbon fiber components are then arrayed in the deck and bottom of the deck for precise flex control and strength. The core shield PVC provides flexible protection to increase strength and durability without compromising the flex and twist characteristics built into the blank. With ample carbon fiber and fiberglass in the deck, bottom, and rails, these boards both outperform and outlast traditional PU boards and other epoxy designs.
Thunderbolt Black
There are 3 construction types within the Thunderbolt Technology. Thunderbolt Black is handcrafted using a blend of carbon and fiberglass lamination layers. The bottom lamination layers are 2-ounces of fiberglass layered with 6 oz. of carbon fiber while the deck is layered with 2 oz. of fiberglass and then 6 oz. of carbon fiber. The handcrafted result is a competition weight and flex longboard.
Additional Info
The Gem is a collaboration between Dan Mann and 3X World Longboard Champion Taylor Jensen. Earlier this year 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. He and Taylor decided to call this model The Gem because of how valuable it is - a one board quiver for 9 foot plus board riders that can trim on the nose as easily as it can carve on rail. The diamond tail isn’t a coincidence. It’s a Gem.
Used Surfboard Info
Here at Cleanline Surf we are stoked to be able to help you get great Used Gear so you can start having fun and we can give the gear a second life! Most importantly, we want to make sure you have the right fit, the right design and genuinely the right gear for what YOU are doing. That means you walk away with something that truly fits what you need so that days, weeks and months down the road you are stoked on your purchase.
Used product comes in with varying degrees of wear so you should be aware some equipment may need a bit of TLC before another round of adventuring. Each item is priced according to its condition, its age, its features and its relevance in our store, the sport and the marketplace. This is why you may see two of the same type surfboard or wetsuit model with two very different prices.
In general, we think that nothing compares to being able to see, feel and scrutinize the gear you are interested in, however, we know that isn't feasible for a lot of our customers. No worries, our awesome staff is here to see, feel and scrutinize these things for you.
Used surfboards are one of the best ways to save some serious cash! They can get you in the water for less than a new board and some even include things like fins, board bags or leashes. Most of the year we have a steady stream of used boards walking through our door, with that kind of rotating selection chances are there is a board that fits what you may be looking for.
A fair amount of our boards are customer consignments and not all of those are posted online. That means sometimes a sweet little gem is sitting in the rack and you won't see it on the website... don't worry, we are working as fast as we can to get those up. If you can't stand the thought of missing out please call and ask! We love talking about surfboards (that's why we're here!) so don't hesitate to give us a ring.
As you probably know the degree of use from one surfboard to the next can be vast, that's why we want to talk to you and describe all the details of the board you are interested in so you know exactly what you are getting!
