Fun for experienced surfers,8'0"/73Llongboard (mini long) size soft board, wax-free type.
With a soft top surfboard that wraps an EPS board in a soft foam material, the volume of 73L and the weight of about 8kg bring a sense of speed and stability that you wouldn't expect from a softboard.
Recommended for those who are accustomed to operating a heavy longboard and want to surf easily with a soft board.
*Since it has a solid weight, it is not recommended for those who are looking for a light soft board.
* Soft boards are vulnerable to heat, and direct sunlight and high temperatures may cause the soft foam to peel off or deform. Do not leave it in direct sunlight unless you are surfing. (Be especially careful with black, which easily absorbs heat.)
feature
The inside is a hard board, so it's comfortable to ride.
The inside is an EPS hard board, so it doesn't have the fluffy ride that soft boards tend to have, and it feels like a hard board. In addition, it has a moderate weight and flexibility, making it a fun soft board for experienced surfers.
Outstanding stability and speed
With a volume of 73.0L, strong buoyancy unique to a soft board, and modest rocker, you can take off quickly and catch many waves. In addition, please enjoy the excellent sense of stability and speed that you can't think of as a soft board, due to the moderate weight.
Easy, safe and fun
Because it is a soft board, it reduces the risk of cracks and injuries when you hit it with a thud. Feel free to enjoy surfing.
no wax
The surface of the board is specially processed and does not require wax, so you can keep the board clean.
*If you use the wetsuit for a long time without wearing it, your skin may be damaged. We recommend wearing a wet suit.

Precautions when purchasing, handling precautions, maintenance methods
Precautions when purchasing a soft board
- Due to the nature of the material, there may be small holes (bubbles) or dents in the soft foam on the deck surface, and a slight mixture of different colors in the HDPE sheet on the bottom. Please note.
- In rare cases, there may be slight dent marks during the packaging, storage, and delivery process. Please note.
- Design and specifications are subject to change without notice. note that.
Precautions when handling soft boards
- Prolonged exposure to high temperatures and direct sunlight may cause the board to bubble or lose color. Store your board in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. Do not leave it in the car for a long time.
- A strong impact may damage the board, so please handle it carefully to avoid impact.
- Do not overtighten the straps when mounting the board to your car's roof rack or similar. It may leave marks. Use a board bag or cover whenever possible when installing in your car.
- We recommend using a surf leash on your board and staying away from sharp reefs and rocky shorelines. Do not use the board in dangerous conditions, quays or extremely shallow conditions.
- Due to the nature of the materials used in softboards, some water absorption is normal and not a defect. This water is normally drained after use.
- Wax it like you would any other surfboard. No base coat required. (Excluding wax-free type)
General care instructions for softboards
- After each use, always rinse the board with fresh water to remove dirt, sand and salt, wipe with a clean cloth or towel, and store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Do not use solvents or cleaners on the board.
- Rinse your board with fresh water, wipe clean and dry before storing it in your board bag or board sock.
- A waterproof cover that covers only the thin top is convenient when driving with it attached to the roof rack of a car before the water is completely drained. It prevents water from dripping from the board and is easy to dry. When you get home, remove the cover and drain the water.

Beach Access Softboard Technology
The EPS foam is shaped by AKU Shaper, which has the world's highest level of technology, and is double-coated with fiberglass to achieve the highest strength.
In addition, the exterior is made of 4mm thick IXPE foam on the deck surface and HDPE skin on the bottom surface, creating a soft surface with vacuum bag technology.
Although the surface is made of soft material, the inside has the same structure as a normal EPS hardboard, so unlike conventional softboards that are lightweight, the moderate weight provides a sense of stability and provides a ride that is close to that of a hardboard. In other words, it will be a board that combines the good points of soft boards and hard boards. Even experienced riders can enjoy it because it feels like riding on a regular hardboard.

Customer Reviews
商品の到着後、5回使用しました。
当方、身長181cm、体重81kg。
年50日~60日くらいサーフィンしてます。
今回、『EPS素材にソフトボードの素材を挟んだ、しっかり目の板』という事に興味を持ち購入しました。
普段は9.4ft~9.6ftのEPSとPU素材の板を使用してます。
テイクオフ ボリュームのある板で自身の板と遜色ないくらい早いですね。
操作性 8ftと普段より短い分、振り回せるかな？と思いましたが、レールに厚みがある分、自身の板と大きく変わらないように感じました。
安定性 腹胸くらいのサイズの波なら安定したクルージングができると思います。
ワックスフリーとの事でしたが、裸足では問題なくグリップしてくれました。
しかし、ブーツを履いた際はブーツの素材により、若干滑る感じがしました。（当方、ブーツが2足あり、足裏の素材が違います）これは慣れの問題もあると思いますが、ソフトボード用のワックスで対応できるかと思います。私自身には大きな問題ではありません。
重量は軽くもなく重くもなく丁度いいのではないでしょうか？
フィン EPS素材の方にfuture finのフィンボックスが埋め込まれているせいか、付属のフィンや自前のフィンを取り付けると、ボトム面から出ている面積は小さくなります。腹胸くらいの波でクルージングするには問題無いと思います。
総じて、攻めるような波乗りには、それなりのスキルが必要かと思いますが、ゆったりとクルージングするには楽だし、手軽に使用できると思います。手入れも楽だし、ソフト素材なので、「PUやEPS素材の板より細心の注意を払いながら取扱い」という事が少なくなると思います。（雑に扱うと言う事ではありません）
家からの持ち運びも車内に積める長さなので、こちらも手軽でした。
これからも使用するのが楽しみな板ですね。
今、サーフトリップで使用してます。波のコンディションがイマイチでも、テイクオフからライディングまでスムーズです。
最初は、重心の位置が掴みにくいかもしれませんが、何回か繰り返すとわかってきました。
あと、スタッフの対応もめっちゃ良かったです！
安いソフトボードを使っていましたがふわふわ感があり
Beach Accessのこのボードの評価がいろんなところで高かった為、このボードにしました。
ブラックだったので少し待ちましたが、乗ってみると評価通りふわふわ感はなく安定していて動かしやすかったです。
本当にこちらのボードにしてよかったです。
本当に滑りません。部屋、車も汚れず家族からも好評です。また、部屋、車にもぎりぎり入るサイズで便利です。普段ショートですが、小波の時も楽しく遊べます。今度は子供と一緒に乗ってみます。
まだ1回しか乗っていませんが、胸肩のトロ速いブレイクで試しました。テイクオフはもちろん速いのですが、立ってすぐのワンターンが板の長さの割にクイックに動きました。まだまだ真価を発揮する波に乗っていませんが、これからがめちゃくちゃ楽しみです。
