Wayne Rich Wildcard 3 Tuflite Pro 9'6 × 23 × 3 ⅛ Surfboard

An evolution of Wayne Rich’s classic design, the Wildcard 3 is a proven noserider and smooth turner, blending traditional style with modern performance. It retains the wide nose and crescent tail that helped Wayne claim three straight Malibu Surfing Association/ Club Classic titles. The unique crescent tail — originally hand-sketched by Joel Tudor in Tony Channin’s parking lot for a experimental custom shape — channels water flow for better tail sink and added lift in the nose, helping you stay perched up front. A refined nose concave further enhances control during noserides.

Designed with three functional planes — one for noseriding up front, one for effortless trim through the middle, and one for responsive turning near the tail — this board adapts seamlessly to your style. The rolled bottom contour, which flattens out toward the back third, adds stability and boosts maneuverability. Built to perform and built to last, the Wildcard 3 with Tuflite tech is the ideal longboard for anyone looking to surf longer, harder, and better. Classic from tip to tail, it offers a timeless
ride with modern-day resilience.
