Description

The Takayama Scorpion II surfboard is a brilliant re-working of the original and very popular Scorpion.

While the original Scorpion was a great little board it did lack some "bottom end" performance in smaller and weaker waves due to the very narrow pintail. This Scorpion II is a more "rounded out" version with a much wider tail and a slightly narrower nose. Donald redesigned the original for his friends on the South Shore of Oahu who aren't blessed with the same power and punchy surf of the North Shore. Great little board for So Cal and anywhere where weaker waves are the norm. The wider tail allows the rider to go shorter should they wish and the Quad + single offers the option for either single fin, 2+1 or quad fin setups!

Donald Takayama worked alongside Surftech/TufLite for some 20 years before he died in 2012. This close relationship was built on trust, respect and a commitment to deliver a quality product which remained faithful to Donald's original designs.

The awesome TufLite-PC construction delivers the perfect blend of durability and lightweight performance to a myriad of different surfboard models from longboards to performance shortboards. Top quality EPS foam core wrapped in epoxy and fibreglass, this composite sandwich construction is absolutely cutting edge and delivers the perfect combination of high-performance and durability.

TufLite surfboards are faithful to the original PU shapes, "signed off" by the original shapers and immaculately finished.

The team here at Boardshop are absolutely stoked to be offering these beautiful Takayama TufLite surfboards and would happily consider taking your old or unwanted surfboard as a trade-in against a new Donald Takayama model.

Awesome board/super service
Great service from the guys at board shop! 3rd board from them and always a super service with a digital smile. Scorpion was a board to replace my summer longboard for ease of transport! Didn’t disappoint

One of my favorites board!
Bought it 2 years ago, 6'4, (I'm 84 kg), surfing in Portugal. I surf it when it's small until chest high. Wave Machine, I normally surf it thruster and it rips!

TAKAYAMA Scorpion 5’10
This board is just awesome. It has good volume and is still very manoeuvrable. Whether clean or mushy waves, the board works everywhere and is a wavecatcher with the round nose.
A clear recommendation to everyone looking for fun and performance.
