Gato Heroi | 8'6" Surfar
Gato Heroi surfboards are incredibly unique. As soon as you pick one up you can tell that it's different.
The Surfar model exists within the ACID range - falling somewhere between a long mid-length and low volume log. The clean teardrop outline with forward wide point makes this board super versatile - fast through the water (with a sweet spot in forward trim) and then drivey and radical off the tail. Whether you need to hold a line in waves of consequence, plow through junk on bigger waves or find effortless trim speed on smaller days, the Surfar will deliver. The rocker is low and flat with a rolled vee throughout, transitioning into a more panelled vee off the tail. Foiled 70/30 down rail is forgiving for all operators. Choose Surfar for mercurial performance in all conditions.

For the sake of clarity and transparency, its important to note that we carry Gato Heroi surfboards shaped/signed by RK and by the guys at Wild Things Gallery Australia. We typically have some of each on the rack at any given time. 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 "current" template. If a board description on our site doesn't explicitly say that it was shaped by RK, they you should assume that it was made in Australia at Wild Things. If you are local to San Francisco you should come by the shop and take a look at/feel up the RK and WT Gato Heroi Surfboards!
