Softlite koolite range


The Koolite is the ultimate beginner board, and is perfect for the early stages of learning to surf. 

It uses a similar template to our Chop Stick and Test Tube shapes, but the main difference is that we've given the Koolite some extra thickness to bump up the volume.

This basically means it has a lot more float making it even more super stable, and easier to paddle. This will help you stand up in even the smallest and weakest of waves. 

We woudln't really recommend this board for advanced surfer or good quality waves, but we did test it out in some just in case.. (see clip below)

Koolite Features

Mini Mal Template

The Koolite uses a Mini Mal shape. This is ideal for learning as having a rounder nose and width through the tail creates for some extra surface area, greatly increasing the stability of the board.

This shape is also best suited to smaller, weaker waves which is ideally what you should be looking for while you are learning to surf.

Extra Thick core

While many of our other models are a touch thinner, traditionally thicker is better when you are learning to surf, so we've kept the Koolite nice and thick.

This basically means it has a lot more float making it even more stable, and easier to paddle. This will help you stand up in even the smallest and weakest of waves. 

Carry Handle

Learning to Surf is hard enough, so we want to help out where we can!

With the extra width and thickness, this board can get a little hard to carry, so we've added a carry handle to make you trips to and from the beach just that little bit easier..

plus all the usual softlite features

Moulded Cores

We have created and refined our moulds in collaboration with our team riders an renowned surfboard shapers.


Using mould ensures that every board comes out identical with no imperfections. It also creates a harder shell of EPS foam on the outside making Softlite boards stiffer and more durable than competitors who use similar cores.

Bones and shanks fin system

With this system it is extremely easy to install and remove fins. It is compatible with other fin two tab systems, allowing you to change your fins to suit conditions or alter board performance.

bamboo X Epoxy stringer system

We use Bamboo Stringers, re-enforced with fibreglass sheeting and epoxy resin to give the perfect amount of flex, and greatly decreasing the chance of snapped boards.

The introduction of this technology has meant we've had very few snapped boards!
