Fancy a Pilsner? Our shout! This model is the highest selling board in the Fine Surfcraft range, and like all of Andrew’s "logs" it’s inspired by the 1966-67 involvement era, with the wide point back from the centre, foiled out rails and Greenough inspired fin.
Andy’s been making surfboards full-time for 20 years, and he builds all his Fine Surfcraft boards start to finish under the one roof at his factory in Noosa - and it’s all about top-end production and attention to detail.
With a little more width in the nose and a bit less hip, the Pilsner is user friendly and designed to cover all bases. It still has that pig style outline but not as extreme, and the straighter plan-shape through the tail helps to hold a line when the waves start getting into that shoulder high range. Add the upturned rail for easy rail-to-rail transitions and his is the go-to longboard in the quiver: it noserides in those tricky parts and at the same time it can really bank a turn.
From 9’1” to 10’0” - and some *PLB subscriber is going to win a Pilsner by next issue! *Australian resident only
