5'11" Seaside Helium
About This Experience
Rob Machado's 5'11" Seaside Helium is the board every serious surfer should experience at least once. This isn't just another rental – it's your chance to ride one of the most thoughtfully engineered surfboards in modern surf design, available daily from 10am to 6pm.
Machado evolved his popular Go Fish design into something truly special with the Seaside. He narrowed the tail area, refined those swallow tail tips, and added more curve while slimming down the nose. The result? A quad-only setup that delivers more carves and tighter turns without losing that skatey, loose feel surfers love. The concave was completely redesigned specifically for the quad fin configuration, so every element works in perfect harmony.
Named after Machado's home break at Seaside, this "perfect little stick" handles various conditions beautifully. What really sets the 5'11" Seaside Helium apart is its advanced Helium construction – you get exceptional lightness and responsiveness with a softer flex that still maintains superior durability. In smaller, weaker waves, that enhanced flex and reduced weight make all the difference.
The board performs exceptionally well at beach breaks and small point breaks. The rental policy offers full refunds or credits with 24 hours notice, plus protection if they cancel due to weather or unforeseen circumstances. Contact by phone to cancel or inquire about a cancellation, though no-shows get charged the full price.
This is Machado's vision of pure performance over versatility – a precision-engineered machine that prioritizes what matters most when you're carving up waves.
