Surfboard Volume
Find Ideal Volume
Volume should be a guide, not a rule, and this chart can help you figure out a good ballpark volume for you to base your boards off of.
Ability/weight/volume numbers are not exact science, but will give you an idea of where to start. This chart is assuming that we are talking about a basic performance board to be ridden in average/good waves.
- Generally speaking you would want to ADD volume for a board designed for smaller, weaker conditions
- You would ADD volume for a step-up board for use in bigger, more powerful waves
- Wearing a lot of rubber (thick wetsuit, booties, etc.) adds to your weight and diminishes paddle power, so ADDING a little additional foam will help you.
- You want to balance the added ease of paddling (more volume) with sensitivity and performance (less volume)

Walden Magic Model - True Ride
It’s called the Magic Model for a reason. The Magic rocker, Magic rails, and the Magic hull are very unique to Walden Surfboards, the front 1/2 of the hull is concave, this single concave transitions into a double concave in the rear and the back 1/3 transitions into a moderate “V”. The concave nose adds lift and stability, perfect for noseriding. The double-concaved hull and hard rails make the board fast, stable, responsive, and maneuverable in all conditions. The Magic rails are hard, they tend to be harder than most other longboards, the unique bottom curves & bevels keep the rails from catching, unlike most other hard rail boards. Riders of the Magic Model have been known to surf better, catch extra waves and enjoy their sessions more.

- Rated 5 out of 5 stars9 months agoHappy camper, thanks Jack
I ordered a 9'6" Walden on Black Friday 2024. I waited a couple of months but it finally showed up and Jack's hook me up with an even better deal for my patients. Very stoked, thanks Jack.
