MOBY FISH
“Over 20 years ago I made the first Moby. I had ridden fishes in the early 70’s. I wanted to revisit the glide and speed of a fish. The first Moby I built, 1999, was 7’10 22.5 3.1. Volume? No idea. No matter.
It did the job in smaller surf and I rode it on some bigger days. I was quite happy with it. It made the cut on the 2 or 3 board quiver I kept in the back of my truck.”

ACT
Usually you can have strength, lightweight or a good price. In ACT, you can have all three.
The Rusty ACT shortboard lay-up spec has a 3 layers of fiber on the deck and 6oz rail band in the tail. On the bottom a 6oz + 4oz lay-up, plus UD carbon strips top and bottom. But they weigh around the same as a light glassed PU board.
Most importantly; they respond better. The feel of these boards is like no other surfboard - they are incredibly responsive. The unhindered flex and zero dead weight means all of the energy that you put through your feet is delivered into the turn with none of the ‘deadening’ effect from the resin.
