The Torq 8'0" Channel Islands Chancho Surfboard is all about easy paddling, smooth turning, and maximum fun. A bigger sibling to the popular Waterhog, the Chancho features lower rocker for effortless wave entry and glide, while the vee bottom in the tail keeps it responsive and maneuverable. From mellow point breaks to your local beachie, this board is built to handle it all.
Constructed with X-Lite epoxy technology, exclusive to Channel Islands models, this surfboard is lighter, stronger, and more eco-friendly than a traditional PU board. The graphite colorway adds a sleek, modern look to a board that’s already a standout in performance and versatility.
