The best hybrid surfboards for wave pools

A popular choice among enthusiasts is the fish surfboard. Known for its wider, flatter shape and shorter length, the fish surfboard excels in generating speed even on softer, slower waves typical of wave pools. The extra width and volume provide stability, making it an excellent choice for surfers of all skill levels. For those looking for more performance-oriented options, a hybrid surfboard, which combines elements of a shortboard and a fish, can be a fantastic choice. These boards maintain the speed and stability of a fish while incorporating the responsiveness and agility of a shortboard, perfect for executing more advanced maneuvers. We recommend the Modern Surfboards Highline 2.0 as a great fish/shortboard hybrid.
