Almond Surfboards

Almond Surfboards operates from its California headquarters as a surfboard manufacturer and design resource center, producing custom boards and developing fin templates for the surfing community. The company maintains a digital library of downloadable fin designs, including signature templates like the Plez Phez Fish, Seaworthy Fin, Kookumber, R-Series, and Almond Fish. These templates integrate with standard fin box systems, enabling shapers to incorporate Almond designs into their custom builds. The brand's educational platform covers technical aspects of surfboard design, from material selection to fin placement for specific wave conditions. Construction guides detail lamination processes, foam core preparation, and finishing techniques for both novice and experienced shapers. Maintenance resources address ding repair, glass work, and preservation methods for extending board life. Almond Surfboards participates in the California surf industry through documented partnerships with California Almonds and Mezcla Coffee. The company hosts regular shaping demonstrations, surf meetups, and technical workshops at its facility. Local activations focus on sustainable board building practices and traditional shaping techniques that connect modern surfers with craft heritage.
