The Softlite Pop Stick is the perfect all-rounder!
For the beginner to intermediate rider, these boards are ideal for progressing from a Mini Mal, or when the goal is to ride a fiberglass shortboard. Also great for beginner kids.
For the experienced rider, these boards have a little bit more rocker, and their template makes them more suitable for better wave conditions, and one step closer in performance to their usual shortboard
Using more of a modern shortboard template (higher wide point and a bit of extra width) just makes it a really user-friendly board to ride. The higher wide point makes it stable, and provides plenty of extra paddle power. Softlite have also really been able to thin out the Rail profiles making the board more responsive. The Round Tail is also a nice touch, allowing for smoother transitions between turns. It’s also wider, but thinned out providing the perfect mix of stability and responsiveness.
Moulded Core Construction:
This ensures that every board comes out identical with no imperfections. It also creates a harder shell of EPS foam on the outside making Softlite boards stiffer and more durable than competitors who use similar cores. The Bones and Shanks Fin System makes easy to install and remove fins. Compatible with other fin two tab systems, allowing you to change your fins to suit conditions or alter board performance. Also allows for no screws on deck, which not only looks good, but you don’t need to worry about kicking your toes on screws!
The Bamboo Stringer System is re-enforced with fibreglass sheeting and epoxy resin to give the perfect amount of flex. This strengthens and waterproofs the stringer. Since the introduction of this technology, we have had very few boards snap.
