riding the all-new Mikey February Shorty.

Developed with Britt Merrick, this model carries ’s signature Swirl Hex and has become a go-to for many of our WSL tour surfers. In feel, Mikey’s Shorty sits between the Two Happy’s user-friendliness and the 2.Pro’s high-performance sharpness, emphasizing the flow and freedom of both.

You’ll want to size this model as you would a normal shortboard.

The Shorty’s staged rocker creates balanced drive and control, suiting both front- and back-footed surfers with a large sweet spot. A subtle hip near the fins tightens turns and quickens response in the pocket. The high-performance outline delivers clean speed and release without losing flow, while foiled rails maintain sensitivity. Beneath, a single-to-double concave runs from front foot through the fins for lift, control, and seamless rail-to-rail transitions.

Refined power with range, Mikey’s Shorty channels his signature style from lined-up points to punchy beach breaks.

Find this beauty at your local surf shop or cisurfboards.com.

Protection matters. That’s why we thought through every detail for our Traveler Single / Double bag.

The Solution has landed. Designed for both neutral and front-foot stances, its all-new new outline and rocker keeps you moving fast and flowing through weak surf. Rounded tail, double concave, and five-fin versatility make it a serious small-wave shortboard while its playful details hidden in the deck logo and tail patches keep it fun.

“There are a lot of mysteries in the world right now—many of which we don’t have answers for. But when it comes to tackling weak surf, Britt has cracked the code with CI’s new “Solution” model. Glide, speed, and flow—no matter how small or soft the waves.”
