Softlite Slider – The ultimate all-rounder, classic construction softboard that a variety of skill levels can ride.

Thr Slider has been designed for beginner surfers who are confident & looking to progress quickly, or the more experienced rider who just wants a versatile mid-length style softboard.

Featuring more of a Fun Board style template, this shape provides a touch less surface area than traditional Mini Mals making the Slider a little more maneuverable and more suitable for progression. 

In saying that, it still has a reasonable amount of volume, with some extra thickness through the middle of the board, which tapers down to some thinnner, more responsive rails.

This model uses our soft, safe and forgiving Classic Softboard construction style which provides the perfect balance of safety, durability and performance.

Key Features:

✅ 100% Waterproof Moulded EPS Core – Exclusive Softlite moulding ensures consistent quality, a harder outer shell, and enhanced durability.
✅ Triple Moulded Stringer System – 2 x Paulownia Hardwood stringers and 1 x Fibreglass Stringer to increase board stiffness, durability and overall surfing performance.
✅ Fin System – Screw through Deck fin boxes compatible with multiple fin systems, allowing easy installation and removal of fins for travel as well as adjusting board performance.
✅ EPO Layer –  Bonding layer to reduce chance of delaminationand prevent deck compressions.
✅ Nose & Tail Bumpers – Extra protection on high wear areas

Fins are included with every board, so you're ready to hit the waves straight away. 

Available in sizes 7'0, 7'6 & 8'0.

    SLIDER KEY FEATURES

    CLASSIC CONSTRUCTION STYLE

    While it's not the most advanced, it is probably still the most popular softboard construction style.

    A Soft, safe and forgiving construction using lightweight and waterproof EPS Core encapsulated by IXLPE Deckskin & HD Slick. This provides the perfect balance of safety, durability and performance.

    FUN BOARD TEMPLATE

    This Model uses a Funboard style which can best be described as an 'in-between' shape between a Short board shape and a Mini Mal. It even has a few characteristics of a fish shape in there...

    Ridden a little bigger it is suitable for beginners, while a slightly pulled in and thinned out nose and tail makes it a pretty rippable board for experienced riders.

    Similarly a high widepoint and generous thickness around the chest will help it in small weak waves, while a little extra nose and tail rocker means it will be manageable in steeper waves too.

    Overall, it is an extremely versatile and suitable for a wider variety of skill levels and wave conditions.
