The Gem is a collaboration between Dan Mann and 3x World Longboard Champion, Taylor Jensen.

Earlier this year Taylor asked Dan to consider a ‘one board in the trunk’ option for longboarders who want both trim and turns - he was essentially asking Dan for a design that would land somewhere between his TJ Pro and his TJ Everyday.

Dan’s response was an intriguing intersection of shortboard style concaves with a longboard style outline and the same fin placements that Taylor likes in all his boards.

He and Taylor decided to call this model The Gem because of how valuable it is - a one board quiver for 9 foot plus boardriders that can trim on the nose as easily as it can carve on rail.

The diamond tail isn’t a coincidence. It’s a Gem.

Wave Type

This is Taylor Jensen and Dan Mann’s one-board quiver longboard, the one longboard you’d keep in your trunk that can do it all. Ride as a Single fin in small waves for traditional trim and nose rides, and switch up the configuration to Two Plus One in bigger waves to hit the lip, draw some turns, and have a lot of fun.
