The C4 Waterman Raimana model grooves into brutally hollow surf breaks like Teahupoo that grind up and spit out the bones of all but the sleekest and purest designs. along with Raimana, I have cobbled together input from some of the biggest names in big-wave/high-performance SUP surfing——- pioneer SUPers like Brian Keaulana, archie Kalepa, Greg Pavao, Noland Keaulana, and Todd Bradley. This is the first stand-up surfboard that doesn’t want to run away from the juiciest part of the meanest waves.

Technology

C4 Waterman’s new FeatherCore Composite line of SUPs is based on the rigorous refinement of the foam sandwich/composite structures to find the construction that best suits the unique needs of the next generation of high- performance stand-up paddleboards.

Our testing has found that deck and bottom wood veneer laminates provide the lightest, strongest, least expensive ‘skin’ to complement our featherlight EPS-cored SUPs. These very thin veneer sheets are sandwiched between successive layers of fiberglass and epoxy resin and then pressure molded around the EPS core. This creates a sort of monocoque fuselage, much like an aircraft, in which the skin of the surfboard in effect becomes the stringer or stiffener. We have also changed the finish on our new range of boards to a classic gloss resin surfboard-style finish—no more chipping!
