Product Information

Full details

The Circle One Surf SSR 7ft Wide softboard is designed for beginner surfers and surf schools looking for a stable, durable, and user-friendly platform to progress quickly in the water. Engineered by renowned shaper Jeff Townsley, this board offers exceptional buoyancy and balance with its 88.8-litre volume, making it ideal for riders weighing 60-110Kg. While its high volume provides unmatched stability in small to medium waves, its physical size and width may feel cumbersome for more advanced surfers looking for high-performance maneuverability.

FAQs

Is this board suitable for a total beginner?

Yes, this board is specifically designed for beginners due to its high volume and stable, wide platform.

What is the ideal rider weight range?

The board is optimized for riders weighing between 60Kg and 110Kg.

Can I use this board in large waves?

This board is best suited for 2ft to 6ft wave conditions. It is not recommended for heavy, powerful, or hollow surf.

How do I clean the deck?

Use a plastic wax comb to remove old wax and rinse with fresh water. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners.

Does the board come with fins?

Yes, it features a soft fin thruster setup included with the board.

Why is this model called 'Wide'?

The 'Wide' version features extra volume and a wider shape compared to the standard 7ft SSR, providing more stability.

Troubleshooting

Board feels sluggish or unresponsive

Check your foot placement; ensure you are standing over the stringer/centerline rather than on the rails.

Board is hard to steer

Ensure all three fins are properly seated and that the fins are not damaged or bent.

Surface of the board feels slippery

Apply a fresh layer of cold or cool-water surf wax specifically designed for softboards.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High buoyancy makes catching waves significantly easier
  • Extremely stable platform for those learning to stand
  • Durable construction stands up to heavy daily use
  • Specifically tuned for 2ft-6ft British wave conditions
  • Wide profile helps with balance during the pop-up phase

Cons

  • Higher volume can be difficult to manage in heavy chop or strong winds
  • Not intended for high-performance turns or vertical surfing
  • Larger size requires more storage space
  • Softboard material can be more susceptible to surface dents compared to fiberglass

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your SSR softboard remains in peak condition, follow these guidelines:

  1. Fin Installation: Always ensure your soft fins are securely tightened into the fin boxes before every session.
  2. Rinse with Freshwater: After every session, rinse the board with fresh water to remove salt crystals, which can degrade materials over time.
  3. Avoid Excessive Heat: Do not leave your board in direct, hot sunlight for extended periods. Softboards can de-laminate or warp if left in hot cars or on hot sand.
  4. Storage: Store the board in a cool, shaded area. Use a board bag for transport to prevent unnecessary dings or pressure marks on the soft surface.
  5. Waxing: Use softboard-specific wax to ensure proper grip without damaging the deck finish.
