Munoz
Equally impressive yet not as widely recognized is Mickey Muñoz the designer. At Surftech we call him the "designer's designer." For years he was one of the main men at Hobie. Mickey has shaped thousands of boards, designed numerous boats, help create snowboards and shaped us these stunning 11'0" "Ultra-Glide" and 10'6" Glide models. Available in wood veneer or TUFLITE ® construction, these thoroughbreds may have the richest pedigree of all our models.
Imagine a board which catches waves like a 12 footer, yet surfs like a board under 10'. This is exactly what the Munoz 10'6" and 11'0" does. The rigid epoxy construction makes it glide into waves. Once in, you immediately feel the benefit of the reduced weight, allowing you to maneuver like a much shorter board. It's a fine balance, we have maintained just enough weight to allow great trim, yet reduced swing weight as much as possible to give you maximum performance.

1200 Munoz Superglide TufLite PC (2+1), Grey
The Ultraglide & Superglide are all-around longboards designed to be stable, fast and manoeuvrable. The foiled rails fool the water into thinking that the boards are thin, combined with subtle concave in the nose for smooth nose rides and advanced (forward) vee so you don't have to be on the tail to turn. Both the Ultraglide and Superglide perform superbly in a wide variety of conditions and can accommodate a broad spectrum of skill levels. These boards are the result of more than 60 years of surfboard design experience.
