Carabine Surfboards have been building beautiful, innovative boards out of Wollongong continuously since the 1960s – longboards, short and everything in between.

The Shakey and The Piglet are their two most popular modern log models and when we got chatting to Carabine’s owner Shane Hornby about this issue’s subscriber board we just couldn’t decide between the two, so Shane said, “Let the winner decide! Or if they want they can go with a custom design, we’ll make them whatever they like!”

He’s good like that, and this solution sounded great to us, so here’s the pick:

From 9’0” to 9’10”, The Shakey is a modern well-balanced single-fin shaped by Terry Bishop who’s been with Carabine since 1969 and is still hands on in the factory today. Wide point in the centre, 50/50 rails with subtle nose concave to a soft roll in the middle to a rolled vee out the tail. The rocker is quite flat up front and a generous kick in the tail gives control on the tip and it’s easy to turn when you need it - classic lines, hard arcs and easy noserides.”

The Piglet model was designed by teamrider Aidan Cashin and shaped by Terry. With that rounded pin it has a “less-of-a-pig” plan-shape which allows turns from further up the board, and it’s a great noserider – a user-friendly board all round.

Or you can go custom! Like maybe blend them both, or hit Shane and his crew with whatever design takes you fancy!
