Noserider by Mctavish ft Josie Prendergast
Board: 9'5 x 22" x 2 7/8" Noserider
Surfer: Josie Prendergast
Filmed & Edited by: Georde Grigor
In the glory days of California surfing the Noserider was the flagship, the banner carrier, the número uno. It smacked of Detroit with its extravagance of foam and stringers, of beautiful coloured resin panels and oversize fins. An elegant tanker that trimmed along like a long-stroke V8 through sloppy sections and weak walls. The classic Noserider still appeals for all the aforementioned reasons. A beautiful cruiser with all the tricks added. Take four steps or two, and hold that pose as long as you can, on tiny waves or up to waist high. Lots of board = lots of glide.

Vincent - Explained by Ben McTavish
Просмотров 80914 дней назад
The Vinny has been an excellent base line for a hybrid type fish. So it made sense to start with the Vinnie template, but it’s not as simple as adding a foot to the middle. Getting it to stretch to scale means it would end up around 23 inches wide, which is way too wide for what we are chasing. After spraying some dust against the walls and lots of outline and rocker tweaks we ended up with 7’1...
Poached - Explained by Ben McTavish
Просмотров 1 тыс.14 дней назад
"It would be disappointing if us shapers/designers gave up on trying to make every board go better. Of course, some boards have hit the zenith point, and need no updating. Especially historically important designs like the Bluebird, Black Beauty and Lopez Pinliner to name a few. There are so many influences that affect us, what board we are riding and how well we surf it; fashion, flat spells, ...
Noosa - Explained by Bob McTavish
Просмотров 68314 дней назад
We've been making this board for 50 years! As the name suggests, this is a straight out replica of the board I designed and honed on the Queensland points through the mid sixties, testing and riding with Russell Hughes and George Greenough. The board features a full rolled bottom, 50/50 rails, a tail-hippy template, and a flat rocker profile. We all love the Noosa 66 and it's been the one model...
Fireball - Explained by Bob McTavish

What can we say about the Fireball that hasn’t already been said?? It's quite simply the best all-round longboard available! Since its birth 30 years ago, the Fireball has made thousands of surfers stoked again. Why? The Fireball has three distinct zones blended into an attractive versatile package The Tail: between your feet there is a distinct engine zone built with stiff rocker and double co...
Butterball - Explained by Ben McTavish
Просмотров 60814 дней назад
"After a slightly frustrating, mostly inspiring surf on a mini Simmons I shaped the first Butterball. I totally dug the straight plan-shape which allows you to go so short, and the extra thickness gave great paddle and a buoyant ‘above the water’ feel, which feels great in small waves, think fun! The 4 fin set-up gives it positive direction, you just think and it turns, but works with the paral...
Dually - Explained by Ben McTavish
Просмотров 87521 день назад
The Dually is the most performance-oriented board in our twin collection. With a bunch of short board DNA, the Dually has a narrower pulled-in tail with a good straight line between the feet, a wide point just slightly forward, and a pulled-in pointy nose. The Dually has a beautiful soft shortboard rail with a single front foot concave to flat vee (no double concave). The flat vee and deep cut ...

Super Stock Mid by Mctavish
Просмотров 1,3 тыс.2 месяца назад
It's kind of a mash-up of our Rincon and Tracker but with a sensitive rail foil from nose to tail and far more rocker so it's built to fit tight in the pocket and surf much shorter than its 7'8"-ness. The Mid has a speedy outline with its wide point slightly forward, at 2 7/8 it has plenty of trim volume and a classic slight roll to flat vee bottom shape. It's a simple surfboard designed to rid...

Rincon Explained by Bob McTavish
Просмотров 3,5 тыс.2 месяца назад
One of the first more user-friendly designs of the Shortboard Revolution, the Rincon is named after its first breakthrough performance in early 1968, at Rincon, California - the Queen of the Coast. It followed straight after the deep-vee Plastic Machines of 1967, and the flatter bottom and finer rocker allowed fantastic speed down-the-line, allowing a ride from way out on the Indicator, clear t...

      have you ever surfed the Original? wondering if it has a similar feel

    • @casualobserver1204
      @casualobserver1204 15 дней назад

      @@taylorr3529 No I haven't. Perhaps someone can correct me, but my understanding the original has even more rocker, a bit more of hip plus a couple of belly channels for extra hold, I think? It's probably better for beach breaks and not the best for the points.

    My friend a shaper originally from Australia, he bought a McTavish back with him once. I was a grom not surfing for long, used to go watch him shape boards a lot. I remember that board, the shape, those little things that made it so perfect. The details of the nose shaped and foiled so masterly. I could see why he purchased that board. Great work Bob.
