Tudor Surfboards was founded in 1998 after my 12-year tutelage under the late and great Donald Takayama. With the help of my family, whose roots in surfing date back to the early 1960's, I was able to develop boards that merged classic shapes with contemporary modern design. I've always said, "you must look back in order to move forward". This has been true for every board that Tudor Surfboards has created- but we are FAR from retro. Our boards are not built on trends, blogs or imitation. The board you surf on should always depend on the wave you are surfing, and that simple truth is the core of our philosophy. As Tudor Surfboards ushers in a new decade of designs, we will continue to build boards with purpose and functionality in mind, while maintaining the quality craftsmanship and style people have come to expect.
