Pyzel Astro Pop Surfboard with 5 Future Fin Plugs
You want to go fast? We've got the Funformance design that will give you another reason to get into the water all summer long.
The Astro Pop is designed to give you some extra spark and easy paddle in weaker, slower waves, while still keeping a performance edge and super fun to ride in good surf.
Built off of the Astro, the retro fish we've been making for years, the Astro Pop has a more pulled in nose and tail, with a little wing to help pull in the last 4 inches of the tail which creates a lot of curve in the outline, adding maneuverability without sacrificing any speed. The bottom has a deep double concave running through to vee off the tail which makes the board get up on top of the water in even slower, weaker waves and still easily tip over onto the rail at high speeds.A mild beak nose helps keep the thickness up into the nose, but it's not overly chunky, more like a daily driver type board but with easy paddling aided by the flatter entry rocker. We recommend the Astro Pop as a quad, for speed, but it comes stock with a 5-fin setup to maximize versatility.Ride it short as you want (mine is 5'5) and about 3⁄4'' to 1'' wider, with a thickness that gives you a bit more volume than your everyday shortboard.

IMPORTANT NOTE RE OUR STOCK LISTING ONLINE:
INSTOCK = This is At our store in Orewa Auckland and ready to ship or pick up the same day. If driving from a while away, always call ahead to confirm. Ph +649427552
IN WAREHOUSE = This is loaded, so you can do a custom order. But there are hundreds of boards available EX Aussie from the Pyzel warehouse, so if you are looking at a common new model, it's likely that we can order ex-stock for you. It will be stock glassing, fins lay up and tail. If that happens, you have two options. Add it to our next Sea Freight order at no extra charge that could take anywhere from 3-8 weeks, depending on when you order and the shipping cycle, or we can express airship it at $75 extra, which takes around ten working days. If you have any questions regarding this, please contact our store.
THE CUSTOM PROCESS: A&Q
Ordering a custom board is by far the best way to get a new board. It may take a little longer, but it comes around pretty quickly, and the end result is a board precisely as you wanted it.
PAYMENT:
When ordering a custom, we will take a $200 deposit and finalise the price, all dims, fins and glassing with you. Once the order is placed, we cannot cancel or change or refund the deposit. Upon arriving in NZ, the final balance is payable. This must be paid within 14 days, or the board will be onsold and the deposit lost. If for any reason, the board is not made as per your confirmation, we will refund or remake it without question, but this is very rare. If you are ordering online and do not want to pay all at once, please either pay using direct deposit and only make the $200 deposit or Call Nick 0212891660 nick@undergroundsurf.co.nz and we can manually invoice you. ALL Pyzel orders done online will be followed up by a Phone call to confirm everything and discuss glassing, fins and dims.
CUSTOM DIMS / GLASSING / FINS / SPRAYS:
Custom Dim's and Glassing are at no extra charge unless you use a special glassing option on a gun etc. Standard on most boards is 4/4/4 Glassing, but 4/6/4 is VERY popular for people ordering boards over 80kgs. The weight difference is marginal for an everyday surfer, and they last significantly better on the deck. The 6oz is a patch over the deck with 4oz base and 4oz top lapping the rails with 8oz of glass. Changing fin layup is also popular. If you are never going to surf that board as a Quad, then you can remove the quad rear fins that come with many boards like the phantom & ghost. Removing fins dramatically reduces weight and drag. We can work with you and create a custom shape to match your required volume. This is popular again at no extra cost and managed by Pyzels Head Shaper. Creating a full custom adds 2-3 weeks to get it all done, but for advanced surfers well worth it. Sprays and colours are available but start at around $150.

KEY POINTS:
All Pyzel Surfboards are custom-made in Australia using the highest quality blanks and materials. Shipping is hard and now, post covid so plan ahead. If you know you have a boat trip next winter, then order now. We can always push the delivery out. It's far better to get your new board and surf it a bunch before taking it away. Custom boards will be brand new, fresh white, and have your name 'Shaped for XXX' on the bottom in most cases. That alone is a great feeling when owning a board.

Pyzel Surfboards started in a backyard shaping room on the North Shore of Oahu around 1995 or so, and has evolved to become one of the leading surfboard companies in the world. Jon Pyzel grew up in Santa Barbara, California, started surfing in high school and quickly found his passion. Matt Moore started shaping his boards and put him on his team. Matt always helped explain the ideas and principles of surfboard design and let Jon watch him shape all his boards. After travelling for surf, Jon realized he wanted bigger waves, warmer water and made a permanent move to Oahu’s North Shore in 1992. He found work fixing dings at Country Surfboards, and quickly learned the ins and outs of the art, working as a hot coater. He soon connected with Jeff Bushman, who gave him guidance, input, and encouragement. Eventually, Jeff gave Jon a job as his back-shaper and that was the beginning of his shaping career.
