Channel Islands Average Joe

Channel Islands Average Joe was named “2014 SURFBOARD OF THE YEAR” by the Surf Industry Manufacturers Association!

For more interesting shortboard shapes, check out our shortboard overview here or scroll to the bottom of this page.

Sometimes we want something simple, fun, and easy to ride. This board has a light single concave for the first 1/3 to deepening concave vee throughout and can be surfed off the rail or tail. Full rails keep high volume in a short outline. Increase wave count, and make more sections. The Average Joe is geared toward the things that make surfing fun.
