Torq Surfboards Mini-Long

The Mini-Long offers the paddle power and stability of a longboard but in a more compact, maneuverable package. At 8 feet, it is easier to transport and turn than a standard 9-foot-plus log, making it a great middle ground for surfers who want glide without the bulk.

Yes, it is an excellent choice for beginners. The high volume and stable platform make catching waves significantly easier, while the durable epoxy construction is forgiving enough to handle the inevitable dings that come with learning.

This board is designed for versatility. It excels in small, weak surf where you need extra float to maintain speed, but the rocker profile allows it to hold its own in waves up to 6 feet when the swell picks up.

The board supports both thruster and 2+1 fin setups. Using a 2+1 configuration is recommended if you want a more classic, longboard-style feel with a bit more glide, while the thruster setup will give you more control and drive in punchier surf.

TET construction is known for being exceptionally impact-resistant compared to traditional polyurethane boards. It uses a precision-molded EPS core that balances a lightweight feel with the toughness needed for daily use.

Volume is largely determined by your weight and skill level. At 60 liters, this board is ideal for riders between 60 and 110 kg, providing plenty of buoyancy to paddle efficiently without feeling like you are riding a boat.
