The Channel Islands Better Everyday is the definitive everyday shortboard — versatile enough to be your most-reached-for board, performance-driven enough to never hold you back. Evolved from the Happy Everyday, it features a single concave entry transitioning to double concave through the fins for rail-to-rail speed and drive, and a squash tail that rewards both carves and snappy fins-free moments.

At 5'8 and 27.8 liters this PU version delivers the familiar, lively flex of traditional polyurethane construction — a classic feel that works in everything from punchy beach break to clean overhead points. Futures-compatible thruster setup. Designed by Al and Britt Merrick at Channel Islands Surfboards in Santa Barbara.
