The Channel Islands NeckBeard 3 surfboard represents a refined evolution of a beloved model, expertly crafted by designer Britt Merrick and surf icon Dane Reynolds. Building on the successful attributes of its predecessors, this board introduces subtle adjustments aimed at enhancing performance without straying from the original’s successful design philosophy. The most notable update is the expertly rounded tail, which shifts the board’s dynamics, allowing for smoother transitions and improved responsiveness during turns. This tweak not only diversifies the board’s performance characteristics but also enhances its capability in both the pocket and on the face of the wave, giving surfers greater confidence when charging into barrels.

The NeckBeard 3 maintains a tri-fin configuration while also offering versatility through its five-fin setup, allowing riders to choose between the spirited maneuverability of a thruster or the speed and drive of a quad setup. The board is meticulously designed with a single concave throughout, which optimizes wave entry and boosts speed down the line. The widened tail block, combined with slight hip modifications, ensures that this board performs exceptionally well in a range of surf conditions, from weak and mushy waves to powerful, steep breaks. Suitable for surfers of all skill levels, the NeckBeard 3 is available in both PU/PE and EPS Spine-Tek constructions, making it a reliable choice for those looking to elevate their surfing experience.
