The Egg is the ultimate board for a surfer looking for their first fibreglass surfboard. Wide under the chest for easy paddling and a stable take-off with a pulled in the tail that allows the board to turn well and your surfing to progress.
Eggs aren't just for improving surfers either. They make an excellent choice for the proficient surfer who wants a small wave board but doesn't want to ride a longboard.
These Eggs are built in-house at Open. We've worked hard to make them really good value; keeping the cost lower without compromising on the quality of materials used.
We only build 10 custom eggs/month. Your board will be ready within 3 weeks of your order. You can split the cost of your board over 12 months by choosing Splitit as the payment option at checkout.
The picture shows one of our club boards - if you choose resin tint you can pick your own colour. The full range of eggs available to try through The Open Board Club soon.
'Nice round tail for smooth arcs, concave under the nose for levitation, pinched 50/50 rails for bite, drive and hold, and 5 stringers for aesthetics! Couple this board with a big 11-inch “honker” fin for carry and grip. Definitely a Beauty!!!'
This board still needs to be glassed - so you can choose the colour and finish you want.
Neal's description of the Twin +1:
'This is another variation of the twin fin design, with a small centre stabiliser fin… It has all the get up and go and speed of a twin fin just with more stability through turns. It is probably the most high performance set up I have created…. Best surfed in small to medium-sized waves…'

Neal's description of the 2+1:
"2 + 1 = fun. Here’s my general 2 + 1 set up. It was originally influenced by Dave Parmenter’s Widow Maker design. The side fins are bigger, and back fin an inch or two smaller than the Widow Maker.. Generating more rail bite and release in average day to day conditions. It is a smooth and stable, good all-round design and can hold some serious rail in solid conditions, probably best described as a marriage between a single fin and thruster… A good all-rounder."
This board was inspired by a light microscope image of cardiac muscle tissue. It contracts and releases involuntarily and is responsible for keeping the heart pumping blood around the body.
