The travel quiver board.
The Surfar is a forward-wide-point teardrop blade designed for travel. Low rocker and rolled vee provide stability and speed in fast conditions. Pair with an 8½”–9½” raked single fin for drawn-out bottom turns, or a pivot fin for tighter pockets. One of the easiest Gato boards to ride well.
How It Rides
Stable, fast, and forgiving. The teardrop outline with the wide point pushed forward gives it early entry into waves and natural trim speed. The 70/30 forgiving rails and rolled vee bottom keep it predictable through turns. At 8’6” it’s a true mid-length—paddles into everything, holds speed through flat sections, and drives off the tail when you need it.
The Shaper
Shaped by Robin Kegel. Originally based in California, now in France, Kegel travels between Gato Heroi outposts in Australia, Italy, and Japan. His shapes draw from 1960s–70s surf culture, refined through decades of hands-on testing.
