A really great board just got even Better!
When Happy Everyday debuted a few years ago—after placing 2nd in Stab in the Dark with Taj Burrow—it quickly became one of our favorites and we eventually found ourselves wondering: “How can we ride this even more”?
Thankfully, Britt and team went to work and those refinements resulted in the Better Everyday! Keeping all the characteristics that made Happy Everyday a great stepdown performance board, Britt made several notable updates to help it ride even Better. He relaxed its trademark hip; added a swallow tail; increased the tail rocker; and put an emphasis on riding it as a quad while making sure the 5-fin placement still worked great as a tri.
The relaxed hip allows the Better Everyday to feel smoother through both the transitions and critical turns, and also opens its range in slightly larger waves. The swallow tail provides more bite and hold but still maintains the looseness the original design was known for. Increased flip out the tail on the Better Everyday loosens up the board, creating a positive feel out of the top while the decreased hip provides a more positive feeling off the bottom.
The Better Everyday comes stock with five fin boxes, allowing you to choose what feeling you are after underfoot. Designed as a quad originally for experiencing an extra gear through the flats, Britt also created a special quad set to perfectly compliment the board’s characteristics. The fin set combines more upright front fins and raked back fins that give the board the zing and hold to go to the next level. The Better Everyday is a great all-around design that sits right between your high performance shortboard (Two Happy/CI 2.Pro) and a step down/groveler (Rocket Wide/Happy Everyday).
Simply put, the Better Everyday is designed for high performance surfing on the majority of waves the most of us surf every day!
