'R & D'



This is an older 80's style thruster shaped by Pat Rawson. Still had plenty of life left in it, and begged to be ridden on the right day.

'the Eel' by BTR Surfboards






'the Eel'   ....A real shortboard-fish hybrid. Quick down the line and likes to get vertical and carve in tight spots. Thin and curvy with a fuller outline than a traditional shorty, still has standard shortboard rocker with plenty of flip in the nose so it wont catch in the pocket. Notched-swallow tail, thruster, quad, or five fin options. Single to double concave bottom. For inquires about 'the Eel' and BTR Surfboards contact....   brandonrussellsurfboards@yahoo.com



'the Avo-Quado' by BTR Surfboards






'the Avo-Quado'    .....This model is fast and loose like a fish, but the rounded pin allows for smoother transitions and holds a proper carve w/out sliding out in critical sections. Concave deck gives you a lower center of gravity and added control through turns and airs. Single concave to spiral-vee out the tail. Relatively low rocker but holds curve from nose to tail. Is incredible in small stuff but will hold its own in hollower waves up to a few feet overhead.

'the Northern Lights' by BTR Surfboards



'the Northern Lights' ...A fast and fun hybrid fish. Quad fin set-ups provide speed right outta the gate, and offer more drive and hold off the bottom/top than a traditional keel-twinnie, without sacrificing maneuverability. Flat bottom and medium rocker keep it quick in the small stuff up to a little overhead. For inquires about 'the Northern Lights' and BTR Surfboards contact......   brandonrussellsurfboards@yahoo.com

'the Moon' by BTR Surfboards








'the Moon'....designed for performance and versatility, can be ridden as a 2 + 1 or made a quad to handle more demanding conditions. Moderate rocker, crescent moon tail, single to pronounced double concaves out the tail. Surf in 1ft - headhigh. All sizes, 2 + 1, quad, or combo (lokbox, fcs, future, probox) options.
