The CI Noserider is a traditional log built to make noseriding easier. A thoughtfully crafted board that resulted from a collaboration between master shaper Wayne Rich and surfer Devon Howard, the CI Noserider is a best-in-class design that maximizes your time on the nose while remaining lively and sensitive off the tail. 

With no edge in the tail, the CI Noserider ensures riders the best hold possible while on the nose. Its finely-foiled, upturned tail rail is seamlessly integrated with Wayne’s coveted noseriding rocker, nose concave features and other bottom contours he’s meticulously refined over several decades with many of the world’s best longboard surfers.

While most “noserider” designs have full, wide-templated nose outlines (19 inches +), the CI Noserider is intentionally pulled in just a tad—ensuring it doesn’t hinder highline trim lines or turns in bowly sections without sacrificing world class noseriding. Its tail block width is also intentionally designed to be quite balanced: just wide enough to anchor your noserides but narrow enough that you can confidently drive through turns in the pocket. 

The CI Noserider offers classy resin colors that are hand-laminated over a customized redwood and basswood stringer configuration. Glassed with double 6 oz deck and 8oz. bottoms, these logs are finished with a stunning combo of a gloss-and-polish deck with a finely sanded gloss rail and bottom for optimum performance.

Wayne Rich also worked with Devon and the True Ames crew in Carpinteria, CA to tune the perfect noseriding fin for enhancing all of the performance characteristics of this work of art. The "CI Noserider" fin was shaped with intent for committed trim, locked-in nose time, and smooth, reliable turning. Wayne Rich blended elements of his favorite pivot and rake templates to strike the right balance—plenty of hold up front, with just enough release off the tail.

With input from Devon Howard and expert foiling by Chuck Ames of True Ames, this fin holds high in the pocket and responds cleanly when you lean. Whether you're perched deep in the hook or drawing stylish lines on the face, the CI Noserider fin disappears under your feet in the best way.

The CI Noserider fin is available in two sizes:
 9.75" – ideal for boards 9'6" and under, or smaller surfers
10.25" – best for boards over 9'6", or larger framed surfers. And it's offered in raw-finish, White or Smoke.
