🌟 Key Features:

With a rounded pintail, this board offers stability and control, allowing for smooth navigation through even the gnarliest of waves.

Equipped with a single fin, this glider is all about enhancing your ride, providing impeccable tracking and graceful gliding across the wave face. Thanks to its pointed nose shape, get ready for some extended noserides that'll have you feeling like you're walking on water. With a moderate rocker, this board's curvature from nose to tail ensures seamless gliding and trimming for a surf session that's as smooth as butter.

👨‍🔧 Meet the Mastermind: Oscar Larghi At 61 years young, Oscar Larghi isn't just shaping surfboards, he's a teacher crafting dreams. Starting his surfing journey back in '82 and diving into shaping in '92, Oscar's passion for riding waves led him to create his own label, Jam Surfboards, alongside shaping guru Renato Tiribelli. Handcrafted with love, each board tells a story of dedication, craftsmanship, and a whole lot of stoke.

⚡ A Tribute to Legends: Lightning Bolt Legacy Inspired by the legendary Lightning Bolt surfboards founded by Gerry Lopez and Jack Shipley in the early '70s, this glider pays homage to the spirit of innovation, adventure, and craftsmanship that defined surfing's golden era. It's more than just a board; it's a nod to the roots of our beloved sport.
