Designed and patented by Haydenshapes founder Hayden Cox, FutureFlex is an affluent mix of modern custom designed materials and modern design innovation for high-performance surfing. The construction combines a stringer-less, high-density custom shaped EPS core laminated with biaxial fiberglass, epoxy resin and a parabolic carbon fiber frame. The carbon fiber frame within the laminate is the key to the performance vitality of the overall product. Designed to maximize speed and drive while minimizing twist, FutureFlex essentially stores and releases energy as the surfer transitions through a turn.

In what brand founder Hayden Cox views as a more premium alternative to the traditional PU (Polyurethane Polyester) construction, PE combines a polyurethane foam core with high-grade timber stringer, which is laminated by hand using fiberglass cloth and a high quality epoxy resin. Haydenshapes opts to use Epoxy resin, PE construction for two key reasons. One, the optically superior brightening ingredient significantly enhances the whiteness of the board. Two, our exclusive epoxy is more flexible than polyester and maintains the lively flex pattern typically associated with a new board.

The Original PU construction is the industry wide classic combination of plywood stringered, polyurethane core laminated with polyester resin.
