ZED at a Glance
It all originated in 1950s Hawaii with California close behind. Surfers took to the streets by rigging makeshift backyard longboards when adequate surf was hard to find. Our freshest longboard nods to those ambitions with its classic surfboard shape and feel. ZED not only carries us here and there, but transports us back to a time of sun, surf, salty air, breezy days, dewy nights, and reverb-doused hits of yesteryear.
ZED Pintail weaves California beach nostalgia with ethically sourced bamboo and 8-ply Canadian maple. The classic shape helps improve balance and slice corners with precision and speed. Cruise into a rider’s paradise with silky smooth 70mm wheels, precision ABEC-7 bearings, and a superior grip on your new, long-lasting four wheeled companion.
Mid century surf culture was more than just sand and bikinis. Their boards were durable, their training was intense, and if you’re going to rig anything together in a backyard and take it to the streets - you’ve gotta be tough. We craft our boards in that same vein. Durable, intense, and tough, with notes of vintage vibes and classic charm.
