Inspired from timeless board design, mixed with a new school flair, Nick surf craft pushes innovation, while honoring the past.

Known for shaping a diverse range of longboards, gliders, and alternative designs, his designs reward smooth technique, while remaining highly versatile across a wide variety of conditions.

The new Nick Melanson Lee Fin is built off this approach, maintaining fluid transitions, with a responsive performance feeling. Built in both 9.5 inch and 10.125 sizes, the Lee Fin is a perfect pairing for any longboard you’ve already got a 4A in, but want a little more pivot.
