Lewis 7'3" Diamond Tail Mid-Length Surfboard
The Lewis 7'3" Diamond Tail Mid-Length Surfboard blends the paddle power and glide of a longer board with a more responsive, maneuverable feel. Measuring 7'3" x 21 1/2" x 2 3/4", this versatile mid-length offers plenty of foam underfoot while maintaining a streamlined outline for smooth rail-to-rail surfing. A diamond tail adds control and responsiveness off the back foot, while the Futures 2+1 fin setup gives surfers multiple options for dialing in the board's feel.

Versatile 7'3" Mid-Length Design
At 7'3" long and 21 1/2" wide, this Lewis sits in a versatile middle ground between a shortboard and a traditional longboard. The added length provides increased paddle power, easier wave entry, and natural glide, while remaining compact enough for more active surfing and tighter directional changes than a full-size log.
The 2 3/4" thickness adds useful flotation and helps maintain momentum through flatter or softer sections, making this an appealing everyday board for surfers who want to catch plenty of waves without giving up maneuverability.
Diamond Tail Performance
The diamond tail gives this mid-length a distinctive combination of hold and responsiveness. By effectively shortening the rail line through the tail, the diamond shape can help the board pivot more readily while retaining enough surface area to generate speed and carry momentum.
This makes the design well suited to surfers who want the smooth, drawn-out lines of a mid-length but still want to put the board on rail and redirect it from the back foot.
Futures 2+1 Fin Setup
The Futures 2+1 fin configuration adds versatility to the Lewis Diamond Tail. The setup can provide the drive and stability associated with a larger center fin while the side bites add additional hold and control through turns.
Fins are not included, allowing you to select a setup based on your preferred balance of looseness, drive, and stability.
Polyester Construction
This Lewis mid-length features traditional polyester construction, delivering the familiar feel many surfers appreciate from a PU/poly surfboard. Combined with its 7'3" dimensions and versatile fin configuration, the construction complements the board's smooth, traditional-meets-performance approach.
How It Surfs
The Lewis 7'3" Diamond Tail is designed around glide, paddle power, flow, and control. Its extra rail line helps generate speed naturally, allowing the surfer to draw longer lines across the face instead of constantly pumping for momentum.
Compared with a traditional longboard, the shorter 7'3" platform should feel easier to maneuver and more responsive from the tail. Compared with a standard shortboard, it offers substantially more paddle power and glide, making it an excellent option for surfers looking to add a versatile mid-length to the quiver.
Ideal Conditions & Skill Level
This Lewis is a versatile choice for small to medium surf and can be especially enjoyable on clean, lined-up waves where its longer rail and natural glide can shine. The combination of generous dimensions and a controllable 2+1 setup makes it approachable for intermediate surfers while still offering plenty of potential for experienced riders who enjoy smooth, stylish mid-length surfing.
Why Ride This Board?
If you want more wave-catching ability than a conventional shortboard without stepping all the way up to a longboard, the Lewis 7'3" Diamond Tail offers an appealing middle ground. Its 7'3" x 21 1/2" x 2 3/4" dimensions, diamond tail, polyester construction, and Futures 2+1 setup create a versatile platform for smooth turns, easy speed, and high wave counts.
