Some boards do one thing brilliantly. The Lane Splitter does a lot of things at full speed. It is Christenson's full-throttle twin fin, a board that has proven itself everywhere from high-tide mushy beach breaks to draining reefs in Indonesia.

How it rides

As a twin fin, the Lane Splitter is fast, loose, and full of drive. Without a center fin it flows and generates its own speed, which makes it a blast in everyday surf and surprisingly capable when the waves get good. If you have never ridden a twin, it is one of the most fun ways to feel a board accelerate down the line. Learn more about how twin fins ride.

Choose your tail

The Lane Splitter comes in more than one flavor. The Swallowtail adds hold and drive off the bottom for steeper waves, while the Squash keeps things loose and quick. Pick the tail that matches how and where you surf.

Who it is for

If you want one board that brings speed and fun to a huge range of conditions, the Lane Splitter belongs on your shortlist. See it alongside our other alternative shortboards, browse in-stock boards, or order a custom with your preferred dimensions and fin setup.
