More Information
Meet the Alan Cleland File, a high-performance shortboard developed alongside ISA World Champion Alan Cleland Jr. Building on the foundation of the IF15, this model takes the speed and drive of the original design and fine-tunes it for surfers looking for more control, precision, and responsiveness when pushing through critical sections.
The IF15 was designed to generate speed across open wave faces and support aerial surfing, using a flatter deck that distributes volume toward the rails. The Alan Cleland File takes a different approach with a domed deck that keeps more thickness through the center while pulling volume away from the rails. This creates a more refined feel underfoot, allowing for quicker rail-to-rail transitions and greater control when navigating steeper faces and tighter pockets.
With a narrower outline and thinner rails, the Alan Cleland File feels quick, nimble, and highly responsive. It's designed to stay engaged in the pocket, making tighter turns, powerful carves, and precise adjustments feel effortless. The familiar single concave and medium rocker from the IF15 carry over, maintaining plenty of speed while adding the maneuverability needed for more technical surfing. It's a refined take on the IF15, built for surfers who want to push their surfing and make the most of every section.
Sizing Note: This model features lower-volume rails than the original IF15. Consider going 1/16" to 1/8" thicker than your normal board thickness to achieve the recommended volume and feel.
