Bat Tail

Jacob's custom Bright Blue USC Nemo . Custom Dimensions are 5'2 by 18 3/4 by 2 3/8 , 23.97 litress

And of course its got the unique Bat Tail set up ! Similar performance aspects to the swallow tail design , some surfers remark, it adds a little more stability with the extra centre point , but essentially it's a cosmetic point of difference. Really hard to make , but it does look super "cool" !

Keith's Quiver

Keith loved his USC Alien so much he ordered a couple of updates to the quiver.

Unfortunately Keith was little time pressed and could not wait for the Carbon rail version . Which can take up to four weeks .

So we got the original board number of his current USC Alien and we replicated in a Premium Alien model, bit more price friendly and quicker to make .

Dimensions are 5'10 by 19 3/4 by 2 5/8   30.96 litres

He also ordered a custom twin fin Premium Mid Flyer (right) 5'8 by 19 3/4 by 2 5/8   32.33 litres. 

Black Resin

Harry is a really patient guy and we thank him for waiting a little longer than normal for his custom Nemo !

He wanted the blackest surfboard we could build . Black resin tints are possibly the hardest boards to build , if you strive for perfection !

This USC Nemo deadline got blown out the window ! But we think we delivered on this shooter...

On our social media feed , well known Shaper  Rodney Dahlberg at @dahlbergsurfboards commented on our Instagram feed 

Probably the hardest board in the World to make especially EPS/Epoxy! Don't leave in a hot car!!@formulaenergy

 

Very true, you definitely don't want to leave this board in a hot car for very long .

Although this board is a PU blank with Polyester resin it's still a valid point . The amount of thought and processes that goes into a black resin surfboard is incredible .

We are super stoked how it came out ! Black On Black !

Black USC Nemo custom dimensions, 5'8 by 19 1/2 by 2 1/2  28.43 litres for Harry

Tweaked Twin

Another tweaked out twin added to the range . The feedback we got was just so good we could leave this one on the sideline any longer. Lot of guys love there twins but are hesitant to push them and by adding the a small rear fin feel it just adds that extra hold most twins lack .

Introducing the  TP1 or Two Plus one ..

You can see definite influences from the Alien outline and flat Nemo fish rocker , with an altered bottom shape,consisting of a subtle Single concave into Spiral V With Slight Double concave. All very subtle and forgiving designed as a genuine small wave alternative twin fin then add the a small third fin rear stabiliser for a little extra hold .

Different characteristics to your standard twin with this board, designed to be ridden with a small rear stabilizer , looks like a thruster setup if you want a little extra hold through your turns.

The TP1 or Two Plus One , has its DNA from our Alien and Nemo designs but take a closer look at the rocker , bottom shape and rail volumes and of course the important fin cluster set up and what you will see is a performance based twin fin .
From one to four foot , this could be the most fun you could have ! 

Fun Flyer

The Flyer series are old school inspired twin fin models available in the stringerless carbon deck DCD Range or in the plain stringer version Premium Range.

At first glance the plan shapes or outlines may all look very similiar when checking them out on the internet .

Here is a brief breakdown explaining some of the subtle differences.

The Low Flyer

Retro Twin Fin with rear stabiliser option. The Flat deck under the front foot allows you to glide into waves with ease. Then lay it on rail with the step down beveled rail and old school idea ,which allows you to maintain speed and flow .

The Flat deck line allows you maintain plenty of foam in a very short board, which is very popular at the moment . But with the chimed or bevel rail once you lay it into a turn the low rail volume allows the board to knife thru turns like a modern shortboard.

The Mid Flyer

Again Twin Fin with the rear fin option . The deck line is more domed and leads into  a medium rail (50 /50 style). 

Super fast and forgiving , easy to ride and turns effortlessly with the Twin set up .

 Best for surfers who just want to add a no fuss twin fin surfboard to the quiver .

The High Flyer

Top of the range version based of the Mid Flyer rail simple proven performance deck line but with a channel bottom, altered rocker and tail lift . Designed to enhance the extra speed and hold the channels gives you.

Again a no fuss twin fin set up as far as rails volumes and rocker goes, with option of adding a rear third fin or stabiliser.

The whole board is inspired by the 1980's era but re-invented to perform . single flyer swallow tail with four channels. Speed, flow with hold and Channel Bottom bite !

Made for good down the line clean waves.

Rocket Ship

Waynes new custom USC Hi Performance 5'10 by 18 3/4 by 2 3/8 , 26 litres "rocket ship" . High performance surfboard model , custom built with a swallow tail .

When its landed on his door step, he commented it looked like a rocket ship !

Another Formula Energy addition to the quiver which already consists of a custom USC Alien , 5'10 by 19 1/4 by 2 3/8 , 27.36 litres.

Special Alienator

Special custom Premium Alienator for Paul to add to the quiver.

Paul rides a 5'10 by 19 1/4 by 2 1/2 , 29 litre Alienator and wanted a step up "transition" surfboard for some "mysto" left in the Northern Philippines.

When the typhoon season hits this secret spot can turn on !

His "step up" Alienator is 6'1 by 19 1/4 by 2 1/2, 30.20 litres.

Mentawais Performance

Mic ordered a new Premium Hi Performance for his Indonesian sojourn, bound for Aloita Resort in the Mentawais. He wanted a good solid performance surfboard that would allow him to transition easy from everyday beachbreaks to reef breaks , give the confidence and of course be able to be versatile enough to use back home .

Above: Super shallow reef break in Mentawais called "Suicides". 

Rarely surfed as the name suggests you come off here and you gonna lose a little "bark"! Courtesy of a few razor sharp coral heads .

Looks and sounds like it did the job as Mic gave a us a bit of feedback and by the look of the images , he hooked straight in to some pumping surf in the Mentawais!

Mic Comments :

"In the Mentawais with my new 6 2 and loving it. Does what it says it would do, so stocked "!!!!
