Turn what you feel
into the right board.

made for you

Start with what your current board does well, where it feels limiting, and the waves you actually surf. Freddy translates that into the model, dimensions, construction and fin setup that fit.

Is this for me?

Book when the board
decision is not obvious.

You do not need to know surfboard design language. The useful starting point is what you notice under your feet.

01

Your current board feels limiting

It may paddle well but feel slow to turn, work in one condition but not another, or ask for more effort than you want to give it.

02

You are unsure which model fits

You can describe the waves you surf and the feeling you want, but model names, litres and design language are not giving you a clear answer.

03

You want to customise the build

You want to change dimensions, construction, fin setup or finish rather than order one of the proven standard-dimension options.

04

You have an idea to pressure-test

You know roughly what you want and need an experienced second set of eyes before committing to a board.

What gets resolved

Leave with a
buildable direction.

The session moves from the surfing problem to concrete design choices, so you know what the board is intended to do and what it will cost before you commission it.

Proof from the water

Board client feedback
Pure magic. Took it out at Narrabeen on a proper barrel day and it felt like the board already knew what I wanted to do. Every turn, every section, it was just there.
Charly Bespoke Board Client · Northern Beaches
Board is so good! Barrelled first wave. And again later. Perfect replica, for the moment I jumped on to paddle, volume and balance was perfect. Waves were pretty good too. Fly weight lite.
Jonny Advanced Surfer · Sydney
Hi Freddy, just surfed my board. So good and was easy to duckdive and paddle!

How it works

From current board
to clear spec.

01

Start with feel

Talk through what you ride now, what feels easy or difficult, your regular waves, and what you want the next board to help you do.

02

Translate the trade-offs

Freddy connects those experiences to model, foam distribution, dimensions, construction and fin choices, explaining what each change gives and takes away.

03

Decide with the full picture

Leave with the proposed specification, options, final price and current build estimate. Commission the board only if the direction is right for you.

  3. 03

    The feeling or part of your surfing you most want the next board to support.

Common questions.

What does the $150 cover?
It is the fee for the 60-minute Design Session. If you commission a board, the full $150 is credited toward the final board price. If you attend the session and decide not to order a board, the $150 is retained as the consultation fee.
Do I have to order a board after the session?
No. There is no obligation to commission a board. You still receive the design direction and specifications worked through in the session, but an attended session is not refundable if you choose not to proceed.
What is the cancellation policy?
The Design Session fee is fully refundable if you cancel with more than 24 hours notice. Cancellations made 24 hours or less before the session are not refundable under the public Terms.
Can I do the session remotely?
Yes. Choose an in-person session on Sydney's Northern Beaches or a remote video call. Both options use the same conversation to translate your current-board experience, waves and goals into a board direction.
Can I order without a Design Session?
Yes. If you already know the model and standard dimensions you want, order directly from the model page. Book a Design Session when you are unsure, want custom dimensions or construction, or want the decision pressure-tested before the build.
How long does the board take after I order?
The typical production timeframe is 4 to 6 weeks from final payment, although timing can vary. Your current estimate is confirmed before you commission the board.
