9ft Pulse Epoxy Longboard Surfboard – 69.05L
Versatile 9ft Longboard for Beginners and Progressing Surfers
The 9ft Pulse Longboard Surfboard is a stable, easy-paddling board designed for beginners, progressing surfers and experienced riders looking for a smooth and dependable longboard.
With 69.05 litres of volume, a generous 9ft outline and excellent wave-catching ability, this longboard makes it easier to paddle into waves early and maintain speed through weaker sections. It performs particularly well in small, clean surf while offering enough control for larger waves up to approximately head height.
The forgiving shape provides the stability needed when learning to surf, while its responsive round pin tail and refined bottom contour allow progressing surfers to practise trimming, turning, cross-stepping and introductory nose-riding techniques.
Who Is This 9ft Longboard For?
This epoxy longboard is suitable for:
-
Beginners learning to paddle, catch waves and stand up
-
Progressing surfers refining their turns and trimming
-
Longboarders practising cross-stepping and nose riding
-
Surfers looking for an easy wave-catching board
-
Riders seeking a versatile surfboard for smaller waves
-
Surfers weighing approximately 60–110 kg
Its combination of stability, volume and smooth performance makes it a strong choice for anyone looking to begin longboarding or add a dependable small-wave surfboard to their collection.
Excellent Wave-Catching Performance
The 9ft length and 69.05-litre volume provide strong paddle power, helping surfers generate speed and catch waves earlier than they would on a shorter, lower-volume board.
This makes the board especially effective in:
-
Small summer waves
-
Mellow beach breaks
-
Clean point breaks
-
Knee-high to head-high surf
-
Slower or weaker wave conditions
The generous outline maintains stability while trimming along the wave, allowing the rider to enjoy longer, smoother rides.
Smooth and Forgiving Longboard Shape
The board features a single concave progressing into a slight V through the tail. This contour helps generate lift and speed through the front and centre of the board while allowing smoother rail-to-rail transitions from the tail.
A round pin tail provides controlled, flowing turns and dependable hold. This makes the board forgiving enough for beginners while still offering the control progressing longboarders need when refining their technique.
