The latest news and stories from our workshop, and beyond.
Every surfer around here is worn out at the moment, and in a really good way. April has been a bumper month for waves, with back-to-back swells, sunshine and more than our fair share of offshore winds - and there’s still another week left! It means that lots of surfers in the southwest have been surfing on “the either side”, getting their waves early in the morning or paddling out straight after work to surf until the sun sets into the...
The 6’10” Jetty was one of the first shapes that we developed here at Otter Surfboards, and it's one of the most recognisable surfboards in our...
Last September, just as the last of the summer warmth was preparing to give way to autumn, James managed to sneak in one final surf in boardshorts at...
This deep into winter many of us rely on the woodburner in our front rooms to provide warmth through cold evenings. At Otter Surfboards we also rely...
One of the most important parts of the design cycle is evaluating the final product: does it meet the original design brief and how well does it...
It's the August Bank Holiday weekend and the surf forecast isn't looking all that promising. All roads leading south and west will be clogged as every man and his dog try to make the most of an extra day off work (and so they should) and many surfers will be tempted to avoid the beaches altogether.

This past month it has finally felt as though Summer has arrived here in the south west of the UK - on some days at least! And when we get a high...
Let us introduce you, a little more formally, to The Island Hopper. At 7'4" it's the Otter Surfboard's "one board quiver" model, perfect for longboarders looking to step down in length a bit, or for shortboarders who want a little extra flow. It's a board that answers a question that we asked ourselves: "If you were going away on an extended surf trip and had room for only one surfboard in your luggage, what would you take?"
British like cricket: that was the over-arching theme when we set out to design and build a more performance orientated mal to sit at the...
We're going to start our "Surfboard Focus" series of blogs this week (we'll be looking at one board every month or so), and because it's a Friday,...
