Surfing made easy doesnt mean surfing made soft. The Golden Child Easy Rider brings the best of high-performance shortboardscontrol in critical sections, instantaneous rail response, and fluid driveinto a shape thats easier to paddle, more forgiving on takeoff, and still razor sharp when youre locked in.

Born from the legendary board that Joel Parkinson rode to multiple CT wins in 2009, the Golden Child has been reimagined in Easy Rider dimensions: optimized for paddling power, lower fitness levels, and surfers who want performance without punishment.

Extra foam is hidden under the chest, with lowered rails and a flat vee deck to give you sensitivity, flow, and control. Ride it 12 longer than your standard shortboard and push harder with less effortthis is rail surfing at its most refined.
