JS Industries Softboards: Accessible Innovation and Performance

JS Industries Softboards are the foam version of an iconic Australian brand created by shaper Jason Stevenson. A true benchmark in the surfing world, JS Industries is renowned for the quality of its shapes, its innovative constructions, and its collaboration with numerous professional surfers. With its soft range, the brand has chosen to put its expertise at the service of more accessible and safer boards, allowing a wide audience to enjoy the joys of surfing in all conditions.

A World-Renowned Australian Brand

Born on the Gold Coast, a surfing mecca in Australia, JS Industries has established itself over the decades as a premium brand favored by demanding surfers. Its boards, recognizable by the "Traktor" logo, have found a place on the podiums of international competitions and in the quivers of many enthusiasts. The softboard version retains this performance DNA, while offering more forgiveness and safety thanks to a high-density foam construction.

High-Performance and Fun Softboard Models

The JS Softboards range consists of emblematic models adapted to different surfing styles and practitioners:

  • Flame Fish: a fast and playful fish which, in its soft version, becomes the ideal board for summer sessions and small waves. Its generous volume facilitates paddling, while its compact outline ensures good maneuverability.
  • Big Baron: a mid-length foam board that prioritizes fluid glide and stability. It's a comfortable board, designed to catch a maximum of waves with a minimum of effort. Perfect for intermediate and advanced surfers looking for pure pleasure.

These boards incorporate the brand's high-performance shapes but are encased in soft materials, allowing you to surf with confidence, whether in tranquil beach breaks or during more intense sessions.

Why choose a JS Industries Softboard?

Opting for a JS softboard means choosing a perfect compromise between safety and performance. Unlike many basic softboards intended only for surf schools, JS models benefit from a carefully crafted shape by a renowned shaper, guaranteeing a quality surfing experience. They offer the safety of a foam board, reducing the risk of injuries, while remaining sufficiently responsive and maneuverable to satisfy experienced surfers.
