The GSI Foam Magic Model
The Magic Model is one of the most sophisticated longboards ever designed. Originally built in 1981, the Magic Model was years ahead of its time, and has become the prototype of the modern longboard. The Original Magic Model has been tested and improved for over twenty five years, and today its performance is unmatched. The Magic model is a great nose riding board, yet it is still an unbelievable all around performance longboard. The Original Magic is unique in that it is recommended for beginner surfers as well as advanced surfers, and it works well in both small surf and giant surf. The combination of stability, maneuverability, and speed make the Magic Model ride easy yet exciting.The Magic Model is designed with a concave nose flowing to the middle of the board, which transitions into double concave hulls extending to the tail with a moderate “V”. Rails are hard from the nose to the tail, to maintain responsiveness in all conditions. Although the rails tend to be harder than most other longboards, the unique bottom curve and beveled rails keep them from catching like most other hard rail boards. It is our all time best selling board simply because it rides like magic.
9'6 x 23 x 3 1/8
All boards are glassed with a 2 × 6oz deck and 1 × 6oz bottom with a patch on the fin area.
These boards are made with polyurethane foam cores split down the center line with a wood stringer, and laid up by hand with fiberglass cloth and polyester resin. This technology was first developed in the late 1940’s, but has held the attention of the surf community for over 60 years! It is still a part of every pro surfer’s quiver worldwide.
