Aquatic Division Sea Bucket 7'11"

A new standard surfboard that perfectly recreates Christenson's masterpiece C-BUCKET with a soft top and EPS core.

Chris Christenson, a living legend who spearheaded the San Diego fish movement, is undoubtedly the world's best at big wave gun shaping, and continues to create legendary boards in mid-length and twin-fin styles. His masterpiece, the C-BUCKET, has been perfectly recreated with a soft top and EPS core.

Thanks to AKU data, the beautiful streamlined form and intricate concave are faithfully reproduced. It's great for aiming at the barrel, but also ideal for trimming and gliding. It's smooth for experts, and a fantastic design for beginners to cruise and develop their style. The two stringers provide just the right amount of stiffness and flex. Its finish has been endorsed by Christenson himself.

AQUATIC DIVISION

BEACHED DAYS' surf gear line, AQUATIC DIVISION, offers a range of surf gear approved by professionals both domestically and internationally. This includes a new standard surfboard with a soft top and EPS core, a perfect reproduction of Chris Christenson's masterpiece, as well as fins and wetsuits developed through repeated testing in California by brand founder Mitch Abshere and others.

Perfect as a funboard for beginners, and offering experts the ease of trimming and gliding feel of a 7'11" board.

7'11 x 21 1/2 x 2 7/8 (51.95L)
Approximately 5.2kg

While 7'11" might sound a bit long at first glance, it's a size that's easy to trim and provides a great glide. It offers more buoyancy than the PU C-BUCKET of the same size, so even larger riders can fully appreciate the appeal of the Masterpiece. Of course, it's also a great size for beginners, making it an excellent first board for easy take-offs and turns.

About Finscrews

You can use your own fin screws, but they may occasionally be difficult to tighten, so we recommend using the included fin screws.

Before use

If exposed to high temperatures or direct sunlight for extended periods, bubbles may form on the board or the color may fade. Store the board in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. Do not leave it in a car for extended periods. Due to the nature of the materials used in soft boards, some water absorption is normal and not a defect. This water is usually drained after use.

About maintenance

After use, always rinse the board with fresh water to remove dirt, sand, and salt, wipe it dry with a clean cloth or towel, and store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Do not use solvents or cleaners on the board.
Before storing the board in a board bag or board socks, rinse it with fresh water, wipe it clean, and let it dry.

When driving with the board mounted on a car's roof rack or similar before all the water has drained, a thin, top-only waterproof cover is convenient. It prevents water from dripping from the board and allows it to dry easily. Remove the cover and drain the water when you get home.

Regarding color unevenness on the deck surface

Occasionally, you may receive a board with slight color variations on the deck surface. These are due to the manufacturing process and do not affect performance or ride comfort, so please use with confidence. We send boards with minimal color variations from our inventory whenever possible, but please note that we do not accept returns or exchanges due to color variations.
