big guy
The Big Guy is the perfect shortboard for riders on the heavy side (85 kilos and up) or surfers stepping up to their first shortboard. It’s a little beefier than a regular shortboard, the rails are fuller and Gero flattened out the rocker to make it easier to paddle and to make it a little more forgiving.
Available from 6′6 to 7′4

grommet
If you’re one of those annoying kids, who don’t show any respect in the lineup, and surf circles around the old guys on longboards, go surf somewhere else. But do it on a Grommet! This radical shortboard was designed especially for young, lightweight riders who feel uncomfortable on a regular shorboardt.
