MATERIAL
Specialist bio-epoxy + hemp construction, for strength and flex.
METHOD
Expertly tuned to amplify connection with the ocean.
MOMENT
Alive from day one, aligned with you, and stays that way.
Control = Confidence
"First session, I knew right away that this was different. The board feels natural under your feet and you don’t have to think; you’re just present.
Between the materials and the construction method, the flex pattern is right in the sweet spot. There’s a balance between spring and cushion which softens the bumps whilst maintaining momentum.
It’s like it sticks to your feet—you feel more connected to the board, so there’s more control and therefore more confidence."
Matias Braun: RESIN8 Team Rider
The Differences Add Up
“They’re stiffer in the middle, with a more responsive flex in the ends—you don’t want the middle of the board bending out on long bottom turns; you want to load the tail and, when you release it, get that fling of extra speed.
I felt it right away: They absorb bump and chop, cushion your landings, and push you forward—you’ll find yourself getting to manoeuvres that split second earlier.
Those little differences add up—quicker snap-back, cleaner exits, better surfing. For me that’s the materials and the method at work: stiffer centre for drive, flex where you load it, and the rebound right when you need it.”
Andy Seidensticker: RESIN8 Shaper

An Extra Gear, Every Session
"Other boards can feel amazing when they’re brand new, but that feeling fades. This keeps that extra gear —a little more pop off the bottom and it just keeps going.
The speed is crazy through sections, but you can still go top-to-bottom instead of just running down the line. It’s like pushing a ball under water—the deeper you load it, the more power you get on the return."

Tuned To Perform
RESIN8 boards are the product of decades of iterative tuning, not a single pass on a template. The aim has stayed the same: elevate performance without sacrificing feel or longevity—and prove it in the water.
Thoroughly Tested
Andy rides, measures, and refines. Bringing the rare combination of shaper, high-level surfer, and coach into one loop. Live testing sharpens timing, response, and stability in real conditions, not just on paper.
Energetically Harmonised
The build is set for clean load and release: store what the wave gives you, filter the chatter, then return that energy as speed and drive. It’s about timing the rebound, not just adding stiffness.
Damping Without Deadening
Micro-adjustments in layup, optimising hemp fibre properties, introduce light damping to smooth bump and cushion impacts, while keeping the snap-back lively. You arrive at the manoeuvre a split second earlier—balanced, not recovering.
Blade's Edge Precision
Years shaping fins taught Andy how base, foil, and tip change timing. The same discipline guides tiny thickness and transition changes in the build. Millimetre adjustments decide when energy returns, not just how much.
Alive For A Lifetime
Low loss between load and release keeps response crisp over time, so the board’s character doesn’t fade after a few weeks. The small gains add up: earlier entries, cleaner exits, and confidence at speed.
