Empowered Surfboards

Whether it's a twin fin fish you're after, or something even more out of the ordinary, Mike Richmond is the man to shape your next board. Hailing from the Northern beaches in Sydney, and getting hooked up with the right people, has given Mike a unique chance to learning the ropes about board design, and what works in which conditions.

A surfer of almost 25 years himself, Mike has been shaping on his own for 5 years, and has shaped for some of the big Sydney names, and has also been lucky enough to hang with, and pick up pointers off shaping masters like, Maurice Cole, Greg Webber, James ‘Chilli' Cheal, and board design guru, Derek Hynd, who Mike notes as one of his biggest influences.

Mike will shape a conventional board, but
prefers to experiment and continue to push the boundaries of board design. So let Mike Richmond help you find another realm in your surfing, at this price your bank account will be as stoked as your bound to be!

"I love a round square tail on my all round boards, waves ranging from two foot to four foot, it seems to be all i need on the Sunny Coast."

Leigh Sedley

"An extra couple of layers of glass won’t hurt if your hunting waves with some juice!"

Clint Kimmins

"A single double concave is the best and most popular bottom contour for all round boards as it creates an even water distribution under the board when surfing."

James Wood

"Fin Systems are a great addition to have on your boards if travelling is in your agenda, they save time, space and money!"

Paul Fisher

I like a wider tail on my smaller boards for landing airs facing backwards.

"I like a smaller, wider board for punting in really junky surf."

"Getting a spray on your board helps make you stand out when competing or getting shots together and just looks sick as well."

"A high boxy rail is good for keeping your consistency through turns on a small fun summers day."
