Takeoff Surfboards are built emphasizing quality, durability and value for money without compromising on style and performance. They are designed to take you from a complete novice to an above average standard.
TakeOff surfboards are built to withstand hard knocks, and are designed to deliver maximum durability and performance in their design and construction. Construction of the surfboard starts with a shaped expanded polystyrene (EPS) foam blank with a wooden stringer running down the centre to provide strength and torsional rigidity The EPS foam core is extremely light which enables us to use additional layers of fibreglass fabric and epoxy resins on the board, giving a stronger and more impact resistant outer surface.
The EPS foam core is then hand finished and wrapped with fiberglass fabric. One layer of 4oz and 2 layers of 6oz epoxy fiberglass fabric on the top surface and 2 layers of 6oz epoxy fiberglass on the bottom surface of the surfboard ( similar to the way in which a traditional custom surfboard is made! )
The final stage is to saturate the whole surface of the surfboard with epoxy resin and place it in a heat curing over which further strengthens the epoxy resin. TakeOff surfboards construction method means that the boards are seamless, unlike moulded or 'pop-out' surfboards which sometimes have a tendancy to split along the seams

Q. hi guys is this board available in a package deal? also is it a good beginner board? any help would be great.. kind regards Andy
A. Hello Andy, What height and weight are you? And how much surfing experience have you had? The 7'4 is a decent size beginner board and will suit most people but you may be slightly better off heading towards the 7'4/7'6 Minimal equivalent http://www.zumajay.co.uk/boards/surfboards/minimals-?product_id=247/ This will give a little bit more stability when trying to learn the basic techniques and is more of an all around board. If possible, we offer a demo service here in store where you can try out pretty much any board we stock so you can really get an idea of how it will surf for you. Thanks very much
