Surfboard Design

Surfboard Designs come in all shapes and sizes. The way your surfboard is shaped is a direct reflection of how it will perform in a variety of surf conditions.

Here at Isle Surfboards we take surfboard design serious and understand what goes in to making an all around quality surfboard design. We cater our designs around beginner, intermediate and advanced surfers and use the latest in shaping technology to ensure you get the best surfboard for your money.

Maintaining Our Design

Until recent years most boards would be hand shaped and milled out of large blocks of surfboard foam. But the advent of the CNC surfboard shaping machine in the late 90s has moved surfboard design and shaping into the new millennium.

Now we can catalog all our best shapes in the computer so they are in essence digitized. This assures we can produce the same shape every time we design a set model and add it to the catalog. This ensures we replicate our magic shapes over and over without a loss in surfboard design from the original master shape.

The computer does not make mistakes or get lazy. We at Isle Surfboards have over 50 models programmed into our CNC computer. Everything from a performance shortboard to a classic longboard.

Now we can take all our base surfboard designs and make changes and edit the files based on the feedback from our customers. So we can keep those magic boards on file for years to come. We as surfboard shapers can now concentrate more on the design aspect rather than spend countless hours in the shaping bay mowing foam.

Full Range of Designs

• For the beginner surfer we offer the funshape, minilongboard, and longboard. These surfboard designs are all focused on helping you get started on the right foot and at the right price.


• For the intermediate surfer we recommend the quad fish or even the performance longboard. We even have a design for the bigger guys looking to get into shortboarding but just need a little more width and thickness for floatation. This is the big guy quad fish.


• And the most popular board for surfers of all levels is the retro fish. No quiver is complete without one. All of our surfboard designs are available in a variety of colors and patters. We even offer a lineup of all white surfboards for those who prefer a clear surfboard.
