The 7'6" CJ Nelson Outlier is a modern reinterpretation of one of the most iconic designs to emerge from the shortboard revolution. Developed by CJ Nelson and shaper Ryan Engle, the Outlier is a speed hull that blends effortless trim with responsive turning, delivering a versatile and travel-friendly mid-length for surfers who crave style and flow.
Whether you're gliding down the line, carving smooth arcs, or setting up for clean cutbacks, the Outlier’s shape is engineered to keep you connected to the wave with speed and finesse. It’s the perfect "one-board quiver" for those who want something fun, fast, and functional in a wide range of conditions.
Thunderbolt Technology
Constructed using Thunderbolt Technology, the Outlier features a stringerless EPS blank with strategically placed carbon fiber strips for dynamic flex and durability. This construction mimics the flex characteristics of traditional polyurethane while offering the lightweight strength and responsiveness of epoxy. Laminated for extra protection, this board is built to last and perform at a high level session after session.
