CC Board Breakdown: The Christenson Easy Wind

New for 2025, the Easy Wind is exactly what the name promises, a board that makes catching waves easy. In this CC Board Breakdown, Chris explains the thinking behind it.

The design

The Easy Wind pairs a low rocker, the curve from nose to tail, with a broad nose outline. Low rocker means more planing speed and earlier wave-catching, while the wide nose adds paddle power and stability up front.

How it rides

The payoff is easy paddling and quick take-offs. The Easy Wind gets into waves early and holds its speed through soft sections, which makes it a forgiving, fun option for everyday and smaller surf, and a confidence-builder as you progress.

Who it's for

If you want to catch more waves with less effort, the Easy Wind is one of the easiest boards in the range to ride. It comes in a wide span of sizes and fin setups. See it with our other alternative shapes, browse in-stock boards, or order a custom.
