Macy-Boo

Introducing the Macy-Boo, Rob Machado's first longboard design, a user-friendly shape created with his daughter, Macy. Rob's been making logs for his daughter Macy for quite a few years now, drawing inspiration from his personal quiver of surfboards, short to long, from Donald Takayama's "Model T" to Skype Frye's gliders, and an old photo of Macy's grandfather with a classic Australian log. Rob had a custom from Donald from the late 90s, a board the California style icon rode on a trip to Costa Rica with Joel Tudor and Skipe Frye for the filming of Thomas Campbell's "Sprout." A few others that have given Rob inspiration include a Hansen Surfboards 5050, a Ryan Burch nose rider, and a 9'6" Skip Frye glider. "Logs have been in my life from way back. I live right in front of Cardiff Reef and I'm surrounded by some of the best loggers in the world. Tudor, Burch...I'm blessed to be surrounded by such amazing surfboard builders that have inspired me to ride all different types of surfboards and experience an abundance of feelings of wave riding." This traditional style log has single concave under the nose, a rolled belly through the middle feeding into vee through the back section, and a flipped tail rocker for nose riding. Pair with the Machado Macy-Boo 10" Single Fin for the best experience, designed specifically for the Macy-Boo. *** Helium Core Technology An EPS core with variable flex I-beam stringer, and rails made from Paulownia and Balsa wood to control flex - this construction is light and lively underfoot, and excellent at generating speed in everyday waves. New for 2024, a wooden nosecap creates maximum compatibility for noseriding in all conditions.
