The most versatile hybrid in Rob Machado's quiver.
Meet your new favorite Summertime or Wavepool shape, designed by Rob Machado inspired by the outline of an avocado mixed with the DNA of a fish and the performance of a shortboard. Experience the joy of catching waves you'd previously not even consider trying to catch on the Machadocado with ease, this is Rob's most versatile squash tail yet. Whether you're an experienced surfer or just beginning, this shape will be your best friend on smaller days or weaker wavepool settings such as Cruiser through to Advanced turns in the Sydney & Melbourne Wavepools.
Designed by the California-based style icon, this board embodies Rob's extensive experience and passion for small wave surfing in California. The Machadocado is slightly wider and thicker than your standard shortboard, providing excellent stability and grovel-ability, while it's thinned out tail still provides plenty of control and hold in rounder, more transitional waves. It's volume distribution favors fast wraps and quick speed generation in waves knee-high to just overhead. The Thruster fin configuration allows you to ride as a Twin, a Twin with a trailer, or a Thruster, depending on your desired feeling.
We recommended with the Machado 2 + 1 Fin Set for the best experience. This fin template was designed specifically for the Machadocado to enable tight turns and control where needed with maximum flow.
