The Elnino Story so far

Elnino started in 1999 based in the Sutherland Shire in NSW. Developing Surfer friendly Softboards for everyone was the early vision a total focus and we retain this focus remain focused today. on supplying the best Softboards on the market. We have a technical focus on board performance. This early leadership has left us with the knowledge to develop market leading ranges.

From this start we worked to refine and develop market leading Softboards through our Elnino ranges. We committed early to proprietary templates through extensive investment in moulds – these templates are proven with proven combinations of rails and board volume to deliver performance and flotation. Our rails have tight edges, our templates cover both Mal and traditional noses with good volume to aid buoyancy.

Materials are carefully selected for use and performance – fins are compounded to offer safe surfing and suitable wave performance. Stringers using marine ply carefully offer suitable performance – our research from the start led us to this construction. Elnino decks and slicks are heat laminated and the internal fin boxes are a patented design that is totally reliable. Fins are easily attached to the box.

We have tailored the Elnino softboards with something for all levels – they flex, carve, float and surf in just the right ways. See the gallery for our 2024 demolition testing in the Mentawis – just checking and occasionally exceeding the limits. There’s an Elnino board to match your Surfing requirements.

Elnino Softboards come ready to go with fin systems and leg ropes.
