Gato Heroi | 9'6" Californian

The Californian is the perfect summer longboard, an incredible noserider that still turns really nicely off the tail. The parallel outline and fuller mid section ending in slightly kicked tail combine to make for dynamic noseriding. The scooped nose reduces swing weight through turns as well as providing flex when you're up the front of the board. The Californian is wide and stable, yet somehow still holds in nicely on steeper sections. A Classic California log essence has been refined for trimming from center, control on the nose and quick pivot turns. Part of the "Creme" series.

Clear Deck. Blood Red Bottom. Sanded gloss. Volan deck and tail patch. double cedar stringer.

Shaped and signed by RK in Ojai.

For the sake of clarity and transparency, its important to note that we stock both of the following:

1. Gato Heroi surfboards shaped/signed by RK
2. Gato Heroi surfboards shaped/signed by Wild Things Australia

The Wild Things boards are priced slightly lower (but not that much lower due to import/shipping fees) than the RK boards. An RK signed Gato is going to have his newest template for a given model, and the Wild Things boards are made using Robin's recent iterations on a particular design, but not necessarily the latest template. If a board description on our site doesn't explicitly say that it was shaped by RK, you can assume that it was made in Australia at Wild Things. Come by the shop and take a look at/feel up both the RK and WT Gato Heroi Surfboards!

If you are interested in buying a Wild Things Gato and can pick it up from a shop in California, we would be happy to try to help reduce your shipping cost by including your board in our next order from Wild Things. Send any inquiries to molly@pemulis.cool.

All Surfboards are final sale.
