The Badger Pro is the ultra high-performance version of our popular all-round fish board. Fine tuned for small waves, onshore conditions, and strapless freestyle.
Thanks to its unique construction, it's around 25% lighter than the Badger 2 – while still offering maximum protection against dents and snaps. Your most radical companion for head-high waves, onshore conditions, and strapless freestyle.
The signature fish tail extends the rail while reducing surface area in the tail – perfect for tight, snappy turns and quick rail-to-rail transitions with loads of grip and speed. Compared to the Badger 2, the tail is slightly narrower for even more explosive turns. The generous nose surface supports freestyle moves, making the Badger Pro not just a blast in the surf, but a true freestyle fun machine, too.
If you want epic freestyle sessions in onshore mush or poor wind swell waves - then this board will make wave riding much more enjoyable!

The spine in the nose provides extreme smoothness, soft landings and minimizes the risk of diving in the chop. The transition into a double concave ensures that the rocker in the middle section is kept low, while the rails have a higher rocker. This allows for tighter turns than classic fish shapes. The Vee in the tail gives the Badger a lot of control and a smooth transition from rail to rail.
The Badger has a flat entry, middle and exit rocker for particularly early planing. In addition, it gives the board a very controllable edging in the bottom turn as well as before the jump.
Slightly indicated grab rails underline the Badger’s freestyle suitability.
In terms of construction, the Badger differs from the other surfboards. The waterproof XPS core has an enormously high compressive strength. It is encased in fiberglass and in the deck additionally reinforced with a Soric layer, which gives the core much better durability and makes it almost impossible to leave dents.
To realize a loose character, pronounced turning pleasure and a light takeoff via rolling kickers, the Badger is equipped with a classic thruster setup.
The FCS-II system allows the fins to be changed within a few seconds – without the need for tools. Of course, older generations of FCS fins can also be mounted with a grub screw.
