Description

Story

Model Origins

In the summer of 2023, Shayden Pacarro was looking for a board that combined explosiveness with versatility for the typical conditions of Oahu’s South Shore. Shaper Eric Arakawa began working on a new model based on a continuous rocker and a double concave bottom, focused on vertical turns and quick wave reading. After several prototypes and refinements, the Remedy was born: a board that brings together technical control, immediate response, and a progressive feel.

Continuous rocker, instant response, and sharp reading — the Remedy is precision in motion.


The Remedy is a shortboard designed for surfers seeking high performance in fast, hollow waves. Developed with direct feedback from surfer Shayden Pacarro, it reflects the need for explosive maneuvers and vertical control in intense conditions.


Dimensions vary by request, but the Remedy follows typical proportions of high-performance shortboards, with customized volume to balance flotation and responsiveness. It’s recommended to consult the shaper for adjustments based on the surfer’s weight and skill level.


Available in PU (polyurethane) or EPS (epoxy), the Remedy is built with a carbon stringer for controlled stiffness, reinforced inserts for enhanced structural durability, and eco-friendly resin that ensures high performance with reduced environmental impact. The model features a deep single concave that transitions into a double concave near the fins, paired with a continuous rocker for optimal engagement in critical waves.


Recommended for waves ranging from 0.5 m to 2 m, the Remedy excels in powerful, steep, and bowl-shaped waves such as Supertubos, Coxos, Pedra Branca, Praia Grande, Cabedelo, Cova do Vapor, and Praia do Zavial. It performs best in conditions with enough energy to fully leverage its aggressive design.


The board was designed for intermediate to advanced surfers who have mastered the fundamentals and are seeking progression in modern maneuvers like vertical snaps and laybacks. It is not recommended for beginners.


The Remedy is compatible with FCS II or Futures fin systems, depending on the order. Recommended setups include:
Thruster (tri-fin) configuration with fins like AM2 or Coffin Bros.
A solid base and moderate rake for a balanced combination of control and drive.


This board invites you to surf fast, energetic, and vertically — perfect for those who love to attack the pocket repeatedly with explosive snaps and aggressive re-entries, without compromising on well-drawn rail lines. It’s the ideal choice for surfers aged 35 to 45 who, with a busy schedule, seek to progress their high-performance surfing in everyday beach breaks or point breaks, benefiting from a balanced blend of easy speed, solid drive, and a touch of forgiveness that makes every session more productive.

Faqs

No. The Remedy is designed for intermediate to advanced surfers who have already mastered the technical fundamentals and are looking to progress in vertical maneuvers and dynamic wave reading.

  • ✅ Fast wave entry
  • ✅ High responsiveness in quick turns
  • ✅ Smooth rail-to-rail transitions
  • ✅ Controlled acceleration in critical sections

The Remedy is ideal for progressive surfing, focused on vertical maneuvers, quick direction changes, and precise line reading, especially in waves with more power and definition.

Yes. The Remedy can be custom-made, adjusting length, width, and volume based on your weight, skill level, and personal preferences. Consult the shaper to find the ideal balance.

The ideal volume depends on the surfer’s weight, skill level, and style. For intermediate surfers, it’s recommended to choose a Remedy with 1–2 liters more than their usual shortboard volume. Advanced surfers can adjust the volume for maximum responsiveness and agility in critical waves.

Explosive takeoff. Consistent drive. Refined surfing.
