Description

The Pyzel Surfboards Gremlin is the shorter, wider and flatter rockered cousin of the Pyzel Ghost and Phantom models.

The Gremlin is in effect a step-down Phantom, designed to make the most of average conditions and in reality the vast majority of waves we encounter at home and on our travels throughout Europe and the Canaries etc.

This clever little board will get you amped for surfing, it paddles like a dream and the flatter rocker and wider dims maintains speed no matter how mushy or uninspiring the surf conditions.

Whilst the generous proportions create speed and glide, Jon has added a little lift in the tail to keep it snappy in the turns and the single to double and extra vee assist proper rail surfing and a lively nature in all but the smallest waves.

The Gremlin is one of the more versatile boards in the Pyzel stable; perfect as a step-down for average/good surfers and sized right a great option for surfers new to shortboarding. Ride the Gremlin about the same length as you are tall (a little longer if you're a first time shortboarder) or 6 inches shorter than your height if you know what you're doing.

Jon Pyzel was raised in California, Santa Barbara to be exact and first started surfing while in junior high. Jon soon became hooked on surfing and was riding boards shaped by Carpinteria and Rincon Designs legend Matt Moore. Matt put Jon on his team and always took time to explain the finer points of surfboard shaping and surfboard design with Jon often watching-on as Matt shaped his boards.

Fast forward to 1992 and Jon made a permanent move to Oahu’s North Shore where he picked up work repairing boards at Country Surfboards. Jon then started working with master shaper and North Shore legend Jeff Bushman who used Jon as his back-shaper which proved to be the start of a glossy career in surfboard design and shaping.

The list of team riders speaks for itself with some of the greatest surfers of all-time still choosing Pyzel surfboards to compete at the very highest level and take on the worlds most challenging waves:

John John Florence, Kelly Slater, Jack Freestone, Michel Bourez, Koa Rothman, Koa Smith, Matt Archbold, Billy Kemper, Stu Kennedy, Mason Ho, Ross Williams, Fred Pattachia, Sally Fitzgibons, Ryan Hipwood, Billy Kemper, Shane Beschen, Punker Pat Towersy, Timmy Reyes and many many more.

Don't forget you can also order a customised version of this surfboard choosing your exact dims, fin set up and fin system, check out our customizer service at Boardshop right now. All you need to do is pump in the details and pay a £100 deposit with the balance due when we send you the board, average build time is 3-4 weeks.

We're super-stoked to be key retailer of Pyzel surfboards and are really looking forward to hooking our lovely customers up with one of Jon Pyzel's proven designs.

Pyzel gremlin 6,0
Great communication when I got the board snd board is brilliant works well in all surf!

One of the best.
Now had three Gremlins. Had a lot of boards in-between and kept coming back. This is one of the best performance grovellers, in everything from knee high to head high, user friendly, and goes well as a thruster or quad. Can almost be a one board quiver if you happen to live on the south coast of England.

Love it
Only been out once, on a pretty rubbish swell in Shoreham and can already tell this is going to be great. Picks up waves super easy. I am using GRIPD instead of wax. Also very cool.

The board I’ve been waiting for !
Amazing board, perfect for the average / decent North Cornish surf. As always a super fast delivery and great service by Boardshop. I keep promising my wife it’s the last one and this time, with this board, it just might be !!

So easy to give them 5 stars!!! Board also does what it says on the tin.

Awesome board and fantastic service!
I’m amazed at how wave catching ability and performance have been packed into this board. My first short board in over 25 years and I’ve loved surfing it. It’s so forgiving and stable yet I can still get a buzz of a nice snappy turn. Probably overdid the size going for the 6’2’’ (I’m 5’10 and 145lb) but I wasn’t sure how I’d get on and figured I’d prioritise the wave count.
Service from Boardshop was amazing, smooth, ultra quick and the board was so incredibly well packaged - they have this off to a fine art!
