The Dusty in Epoxy Soft construction isn’t built for high-performance longboarding—it’s all about effortless glide. This board lets you catch waves early, lock into your line, and enjoy that smooth, flowing trim as you cruise. It shines in small to medium surf and truly comes alive on a long, peeling point break.

*All Salt Gypsy surfboards were tested and designed with appropriate dimensions and volume allocations to suit female surfers so they can get the most out of every wave – they also come in a 100% stretch cotton dust jacket ensuring that zero plastic is used in the packaging of these surfboards.
