Bradley New Barcelona surfboard 5ft 6 FCS II - Blue/Yellow

The Bradley Surfboards New Barcelona has set the bar pretty high in the performance groveller category...time to rethink what's possible when the surf drops below waist high!

There is a common thread running through the Christiaan Bradley surfboard range...his love of a smooth and curvy outline. The New Barcelona has a slightly more rounded nose and tail than the original but maintains the straight rail line for maximum speed in small surf.

The New Barcelona is designed to be ridden as short as possible and to execute regular shortboard turns in less than perfect surf. The Vee into double concave bottom contours create a flatter rail-line allowing the NB to actually pick-up speed when performing turns.

We'd all like to be that guy who manages to bust his fins out half a dozen times on a knee high wave, well the New Barcelona is the tool for the job....designed specifically to squeeze the most from those days when you'd normally reach for that pug-ugly uber-groveller or even a mal!

Christiaan Bradley began his career sanding surfboards on the Gold Coast. He quickly became a master sander and took his skills on a European tour where he landed the job of Ghost shaper for Channel Islands surfboards for Europe! Christiaan's job put him in contact with the CI team and a certain Mr K Slater. This environment along with his other mentor, Simon Anderson sent his shaping skills skyward and it was soon obvious that he ought to be shaping under his own name...Bradley Surfboards was born.
