The JW Signature Softboard combines all of the magic Julian and JS have found in their fun boards meant purely for switching off and enjoying the ocean. After testing a variety of super short designs of all shapes and sizes, we settled on a sleek parallel outline that would allow Jules to fit all the volume he needs into a 5’0”.
The finished product came together when JW and best mate Jimmy Lees took both of their families on a holiday up the coast (the only Australian alternative to down the coast), settled in for a long weekend, and chose the perfect craft to spin around on tiny sliders that would’ve been almost un-surfable on any other boards.
So this is what we’ve settled on for the JW Signature. Soft deck, hard bottom. Plus an inbuilt kicker for your back foot, a feature completely unique to JS softboards (patent pending). Ridden as a twin fin, or finless and purely reliant on the mini-channels running from nose to tail to keep you flying down the line and provide just enough grip. Either way, you’ll still need to embrace a friction-free and incredibly fast ride to keep even the most novelty conditions as entertaining as possible. Enjoy!
