Better Everyday
Description
Description
Channel Islands took the much-loved Happy Everyday and asked "how do we ride this even more?" The answer is the Better Everyday: a relaxed hip and a swallow tail that make it smoother off the bottom and open it right up in slightly bigger waves, while keeping that loose, fun step-down feel.
Key Features
- Relaxed trademark hip for a smoother, more positive bottom turn
- Swallow tail adds bite and hold without losing the loose feel
- Increased tail flip loosens it up out of the lip for snappy top turns
- Extends the everyday range into slightly larger, better waves
- Ships with five fin boxes — set it up as a quad with CI's matched fin set
- Choice of PU/PE or Spine-Tek (Channel Islands' own epoxy tech) construction
Details
- Vendor / shaper: Channel Islands (Britt Merrick)
- Construction: PU/PE or Spine-Tek — Channel Islands' own tech (choose at checkout) (confirmed)
- Fin system / setup: 5 fin boxes, FCS II or Futures. Designed as a quad; Britt built a dedicated quad set (upright fronts, raked rears) to match it
- Tail shape: Swallow tail (confirmed)
- Sizes / colours: 5'7–6'2, White (deck art per photos)
Who It's For
- Intermediate-to-advanced surfers wanting a high-performance step-down for everyday beach breaks
- Surfers who liked the Happy Everyday but want more range in slightly bigger surf
- Quad-lovers chasing speed, hold and zing off the top
- Not a beginner board — best suits an established, driving surfer
