THE BOARD ROOM

Which is the right tail for what I want to do?TAILS FROM THE EDGE

SWALLOW / FISH TAILBoards with a swallow or fish tail are generally used in smaller waves and offer great

drive, control and speed. In the case of a traditional fish, the more pronounced the tail

is the harder it becomes to transition out of sharp turns.

DIAMOND TAILThe diamond tail is becoming less common since the rise in popularity of the squash

tail. This tail allows the rider to do turns with really tight arcs and was originally

designed to be softer than the square tail without losing speed.

ROUNDED PIN TAILA more rounded version of the squash tail, the rounded pin tail is most effective in

medium to large surf. This shape gives more stability and is perfect for rail-to-rail

surfing while doing big, powerful carves.

SQUASH TAILThe squash tail is the most common tail shape on modern surfboards. The design

allows for a stable board, yet manoeuverable ride. A great tail shape for any standard

of surfer, the squash tail can be used in both small and overhead waves.

OUR FINS ARE TOUGH AND LIGHT

The Vanhunks signature polycarbonate fin is almost

indestructible. These fins are a third lighter than their

acrylic counterparts and a sixth of the weight of

standard glass fins. Combined with the right

Vanhunks board this fin is a winner.

Glass-fibre fins with a performance honeycomb core

reduces fin weight but still delivers the feel of a

traditional fibre-glass fin. The narrower base and fin

with inside foil technology offers you better hold and

faster response through turns with top-to-bottom

control and plenty of speed down the line. Flex tips

provide give and control at high speeds.

THE BOARD ROOM

We use only the best materials to create each Vanhunks board.IT’S ALL IN THE DETAILS

PAULOWNIA WOOD CORE

Paulownia is a silky light golden Hardwood. Paulownia wood is very dimensionally stable and is not

subject to warping, cupping or splitting even when exposed to outdoor elements. It also has one of the

highest strength-to-weight ratios of any wood, which makes it the perfect core.

HAND SHAPED

No pop-out moulds are used during the production process, as we feel every board needs the personal

touch only a human hand can give. Shapers take precise care of every single board, and this can only

be achieved through a hand-glassed layup. Exact measurements are replicated and we adopted an

extremely low tolerance factor to the original shape. The glass layup is carefully done by hand, the

angles and the tightening of the fabric is carried out with extreme precision to ensure the board has

feeling under your feet.

EPS

An acronym for Expanded Polystyrene. This is lightweight beaded foam used in the production of

epoxy surfboards. We use the best tried-and-tested EPS density foam for the board application.

The EPS foam is wrapped in an epoxy sandwich construction, which is then vacuum bagged to ensure

no air is trapped inside.

POLYCARBONATE

Polycarbonate is a versatile, tough plastic used for a variety of applications. The main advantage of

polycarbonate over other types of plastic is its unbeatable strength combined with light weight.

Polycarbonate is nearly unbreakable.

BIAX GLASS AND PVC SANDWICH

A combination of top quality Biax Glass fabrics in combination with PVC layers on deck and bottom

provides optimised durability to reach an excellent weight ratio.

WOOD SANDWICH

A lightweight yet robust wood and glass fibre construction with a very high strength-to-weight ratio.

This is an extremely durable layup, even for the hardest landings, that still gives optimal flex

at pressure zones.

KITEBOARDING

Page 11: Vanhunks Catalogue

When it came to designing our kiteboards,

we wanted to create equipment that

would allow the rider to get maximum

enjoyment and control from the

experience. So we designed the perfect

surfboard and then reinforced it to

compensate for the impacts of kiting.

The result – light, high-performance

boards that allow the rider to park the kite

and actively surf the waves, rather than let

the kite do all the work. All our directional

kiteboards are designed for both strap and

strapless riding.

Our directional kiteboards are the perfect

travel companion, as they can easily be

surfed as a normal shortboard when the

swell is up and the wind isn’t.

Our range of twin tip boards caters to all

riders, each one designed for maximum

output with excellent grip, control and speed.

Our designers develop products that push

the barriers, and test each and every product

meticulously to ensure unmatched

performance. Flex Tips give you a controlled

pop, cushioned and softer landing. Carefully

designed flex zones from front to rear mean

your rail is continuously moving and adapting

to the water surface giving you a fusion in

chop. Solid grip ensures upwind performance

and makes pops easier and more predictable.

Dare to experience new innovation.

The legend goes that in the 1600s a man called Van Hunks

lived on the mountain. He used to smoke his pipe day in and

day out. One day, he was challenged by a man in a dark coat to

a smoking duel. Van Hunks and the mysterious man smoked

until the mountain was covered in a cloudy haze. To this day,

whenever the South Easter blows, people in Cape Town refer

to the legendary Van Hunks duelling with the devil again.”

“Vanhunks is a Cape Town born company.

When Table Mountain is covered by the white

cloud tablecloth, every kite surfer knows

conditions are perfect.”

surfboards which combine strong influences

from the origins of surfing with the very latest

surfboard technology, resulting in beautiful,

the wooden boards of the 50s and 60s.

Vanhunks surfboards are not only high

performance, great riding boards, they are

also beautiful to look at, with high-gloss piano

LONGBOARDS

MINI MALIBU

Mini Mals are often considered the happy medium

between long-and-shortboards. Many surfers start

on Mini Mals and come back to them again later

in life. They tend to be easier to paddle than

shortboards, but handle bigger surf and offer better

turns than longboards.

Our classic shape has been ridden and praised by

experienced surfers for both its manoeuvrability

and performance.

When it came to manufacturing our

stand-up paddleboards, we scoured

the globe for the very best materials

and technologies, testing shapes and

sizes from the world’s most respected

shapers. Our boards are designed and

crafted with performance, strength,

balance and longevity in mind.

No moulds or computers are used

to create our boards – each one is

handcrafted, making it a high precision

work of art.

MOVEMENTThis is basically how easily you areable to control your board and makeit turn. In general, shorter boards offer better movement.

STABILITYStability refers to how easily you can stand over the board. Longboards,with their greater width and length,give more stability.

GLIDEGlide refers to the ability of a boardto maintain speed. Longer, thinner boards are able to maintain speed better than shorter boards.

TRACKINGThis refers to the ability of the boardto move in a straight line when paddling side to side. Better tracking means you can do more paddle strokes on one side at a time without veering off in either direction. Longer boards tend to be better at tracking.

This board is ideal for the paddler who wants

maximum speed, directional stability and

long-lasting glides. The slightly shorter length

makes it easy to manoeuvre, while the flat rocker

allows for gliding with little effort.

It’s the perfect choice for flatwater adventures,

cruising with friends, and recreational racing.

Vanhunks Boarding (Pty) Ltd Warranty Claim Procedure

WARRANTYVanhunks Boarding warrants that this product, when it is purchased from an authorised Vanhunks Boarding

dealer by a retail customer, will be free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of 6 months

from the date of purchase by the original retail customer. This warranty is solely for the benefit of the

original retail purchaser and may not be assigned. For retail customer Limited Warranty claims, proof

of purchase from an authorised Vanhunks Boarding dealer is required. If the date of purchase cannot

be established, Vanhunks Boarding will make a determination based upon on the last production year

of the particular model, or on the condition of the equipment claimed.

If you have any questions about the Vanhunks Boarding Limited Warranty or procedures for making claims

thereunder, please contact Vanhunks Boarding at www.vanhunksboarding.com. The Vanhunks Boarding

Warranty Centre will determine if a product is covered under this Limited Warranty. If covered, Vanhunks

Boarding will, at the company’s sole discretion, repair or replace the product in question. All returns must be

made through Vanhunks Boarding authorised dealers. Vanhunks Boarding does not accept returns directly

from customers. Customers must call for a Return Authorisation Number before returning any product under

this Limited Warranty. All authorised returns must be sent to a Vanhunks Boarding’s Warranty Centre at the

country’s main distribution warranty office, freight prepaid. Vanhunks Boarding will pay the freight for the

return shipment. Return shipment will either be consolidated together with the authorised retailer next

shipment, or paid by Vanhunks Boarding, at Vanhunks Boarding’s sole discretion.

Any repair or replacement of any product under this Limited Warranty is not available for ordinary wear and

tear, including scratches or paint chipping, or for any damage caused by misuse, abuse, unauthorised

modification or repairs, accident, heat, excessive exposure to sunlight, excessive exposure to cold,

improper handling, storage, maintenance or care; incorrect setup, use in commercial, rental or teaching

environments; use in reef waves, shore break or off the water; any blow or impact with a hard object or any

other irresponsible use.

THE FOREGOING LIMITED WARRANTY IS EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES OF

QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE, WRITTEN, ORAL OR IMPLIED AND ALL OTHER WARRANTIES,

INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR

PURPOSE, ARE HEREBY DISCLAIMED. IN NO EVENT SHALL VANHUNKS BOARDING BE LIABLE FOR

SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, STATUTORY OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, WHETHER

IN CONTRACT, TORT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE including, without limitation, loss

to property other than this product, loss of use of said product, or other property or other economic losses.

Vanhunks Boarding shall not be liable for contribution or indemnification, whatever the cause. Some

jurisdictions do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts and/or the exclusion or limitation

of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation and exclusion may not apply to particular

customers. Vanhunks Boarding’s obligations under any warranty shall be limited, to the greatest extent

allowed by law, as provided in this Vanhunks Boarding Limited Warranty. This Limited Warranty gives you

specific legal rights; you may also have other rights, which vary from one jurisdiction to another. Vanhunks

Boarding assumes responsibility for return shipping and insurance costs to the customer.
