The Unagi can be added to the quiver as a step-down for the smaller or more crowded days and at the other end of the spectrum are the surfers who'll use it as a step up for the bigger and better days when they struggle to battle out through the surf with their longboards or higher volume mini-mals/carpets etc.

The plan shape has been created by stretching out our Koi shape. It’s been kept fuller on top for easy paddling and the tail is pulled in to keep its disc shape for stability.

A flat entry rocker all the way to a Vee in the fins to a double and another in the tail gives it great performance, further aided by the deep swallow tail.

Majestic as a big fish and as agile as an eel !!!

CONSTRUCTION POLYURETHANE/POLYESTER

Polyurethane blank with polyester resin is the most widely used construction for surfboards and has been for years. Recently polyester resin has become stronger and more ultraviolet stable which means the boards last longer and stay white even when exposed to strong sunlight on surf trips.

At Shibui surfboards we use a resin called Isophthalic which is the best polyester resin on the market, your board will stay whiter for longer. The polyurethane blanks we use are from US Blanks which supply all the top brands worldwide, they're strong and light. Shibui surfboards are built from the best materials out there, we do not cut corners on quality, if need advice please contact us.
