Hardboards are premium rigid surfboards that offer exceptional performance and durability on the water. Unlike inflatable boards, these solid constructions provide superior control and responsiveness, making them a preferred choice for dedicated water sports enthusiasts. TORQ's innovative technology combines epoxy construction with advanced materials to create boards that excel in various water conditions.
Performance and design features
The cutting-edge construction of TORQ surfboards ensures maximum durability while maintaining optimal weight. Each board features:
- advanced epoxy construction for enhanced strength,
- precision-engineered rails for improved maneuverability,
- high-quality deck pad for superior grip,
- UV-resistant materials for lasting performance,
- custom fin setup options for versatile riding styles.
When to choose hardboards over other options
Hardboards are particularly suitable for riders who prioritize performance and seek the most authentic surfing experience. These boards excel in providing precise control and immediate response to rider input, making them ideal for both challenging waves and everyday conditions. The solid construction allows for more advanced maneuvers and better wave reading capabilities.
Care and maintenance tips
Proper maintenance is crucial for extending the life of your hardboard and maintaining its performance. Regular cleaning with fresh water after each use helps prevent salt buildup and potential damage. Store your board in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight to prevent delamination and color fading. Additionally, using board bags during transport protects your investment from dings and scratches that could compromise its performance.
When traveling with your board, always use appropriate rack systems and straps to ensure secure transportation and prevent any potential damage.
