Product Information

Full details

The Circle One 9ft Round Pin Tail Longboard is ideal for surfers of all skill levels seeking a blend of classic cruise and modern maneuverability. Designed by legendary shaper Jeff Townsley, the board features a durable epoxy-bamboo construction that offers both strength and natural flex. While the board's high volume makes it incredibly stable for beginners and heavy enough for smooth glides, surfers should note that the unique bamboo finish means each board has a distinct aesthetic variation that requires careful handling to maintain its structural integrity.

FAQs

Is this board suitable for beginners?

Yes, its 9ft length and 67.28L volume provide excellent stability, making it a great choice for those learning to stand up and paddle.

Can I use any fins with this board?

This board uses FCS Fusion finboxes, so it is compatible with all FCS-compatible fins.

How do I maintain the bamboo finish?

Keep the board in a bag when not in use and avoid dragging it across sand or concrete to protect the finish.

What is the benefit of the round pin tail?

The round pin tail reduces surface area in the water, providing extra hold and control when carving in steeper or larger waves.

Does the board come with fins?

Yes, it comes complete with premium honeycomb FCS-compatible fins.

Can I ride this as a single fin?

Yes, the 2+1 setup allows you to remove the side bites and ride it as a traditional single-fin longboard.

Troubleshooting

Board feels sluggish or 'drags' in the water

Check your fin setup. If using a large center fin, ensure it is set correctly in the box. Also, clean any seaweed or debris from the tail area.

Fin keeps wiggling or feels loose

The grub screw in the FCS Fusion box may have vibrated loose. Use a fin key to tighten the screw, but do not overtighten as it may strip the threads.

Small surface scratch on the bamboo finish

Light surface scratches are cosmetic. If the scratch feels rough or deep, apply a thin layer of epoxy clear coat to seal the bamboo.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable, lightweight epoxy construction
  • Versatile 2+1 fin configuration for multiple riding styles
  • Excellent paddle power and stability
  • Responsive ride thanks to the 60/40 rails
  • Beautiful, unique bamboo aesthetic

Cons

  • Larger size requires more storage space
  • Unique bamboo finish is susceptible to dings if handled carelessly
  • High volume may feel bulky to advanced surfers seeking extreme snap

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your board, identify the FCS Fusion finboxes. Ensure the grub screws are loose before inserting your fins. Slide the fins in, ensure they are seated fully, and tighten the screws firmly using an appropriate fin key.

Care Instructions:

  • Always rinse the board with fresh water after use to remove salt residue.
  • Store the board in a padded surfboard bag when not in use to protect the bamboo veneer.
  • Avoid leaving the board in direct, intense sunlight for extended periods to prevent delamination.
  • Inspect the board regularly for dings or cracks; if a crack penetrates the outer layer, repair it immediately with epoxy-safe resin to prevent water ingress.
