What Is an Epoxy Softboard? Pros, Cons, and OEM Considerations
An epoxy softboard is a advanced hybrid surfboard that merges the strength and performance of an epoxy laminate with the safety and comfort of a soft-top deck. This construction, often featuring an EPS core, wood veneer, and epoxy resin, results in a product that is more durable and responsive than traditional softboards. For OEM brands, it offers a superior option for both surf school rentals and the premium retail market, with key selling points including a longer lifespan and opportunities for customization through colored EVA decks and branded graphics.
