The Custom World.

Custom

we build your wet dream

A custom board is the paramount choice for a rider who needs a product tailored to their uncompromised needs. The Quatro Custom World is the holy grail of windsurfing boards. We are not only committed but inherently bound to building, riding and selling boards where it’s all at, in Hawaii. All Quatro production boards are based on prototypes built right here in Haiku on Maui. Naturally such dedication translates into the ultimate quality of boards we manufacture.

Our heritage goes back as far as 1994 and our hunger for new shapes won´t stop tomorrow, let alone today.

You get to choose between three constructions and three rockers, all based on latest full sandwich, carbon and s-glass layups guaranteed to deliver ultimate lightness to strength ratios. No limits are set on your choice of graphics. There are many ways to order your dream board. The most convenient is to simply fill out your Custom Wishlist online. The one we recommend is to drop by the shop and hang out with me in the shaping room while we talk about building your latest stick.

Rocker

Which rocker line would you like? We currently offer 3 different rocker models, differentiated by their respective curve in the tail of the board. 6 being the tightest turning rocker. 4 being faster and most widely used as it is the most versatile for all around wave sailing. 2 being the fastest rocker for windsurfers who sail mostly in onshore or conditions with a lot of currents.

 
Tail Shape
Construction

Quatro Custom constructions use a double sandwich and carbon build similar to our production boards but deliver lighter weight, higher strength and more exclusive materials. You have the choice between 3 different construction versions. Premium is the strongest version, recommended for boards that will be jumped a lot. Ultralight is lighter and hence a little bit more fragile. The ideal version for boards that will mostly be used to ride waves and where jumping with potential flat landings won't happen a lot. Ultralight Pro is our most exclusive construction featuring a full carbon deck. Stronger than Ultralight but a bit weaker than Premium.

Artwork

Please indicate if you would like an artwork or graphic and whether it will be on the deck and bottom or deck only.

Please factor in around $200 for a deck artwork or around $300 for a deck and bottom artwork. Exact prices depend on the complexity of the artwork. Please note that paint and artworks are not refundable. Although our team thrives to match our customers' expectations, including but not limited to color, graphic, size, layout, the final work remains completely to our painters and artists interpretation.

Shipping
Delivery

We welcome you to come to Maui and pick up your custom board in person at our flagship store. An additional HI sales tax of 4.16% applies for local pickup. Alternatively we can ship your custom board worldwide. An important part of Quatro is to provide you with the best shipping price in the shortest delivery time. We review each order individually, factoring in the destination, weight and size of the shipment. Exact shipping charges for all deliveries will be confirmed during the process of ordering your board. For cheaper rates we recommend airport to airport shipments. This means that you'll have to pick up the board at an airport close to you and take care of customs clearance and possible import duties. Airport to door deliveries are also available but price is approximately 40% to 50% higher. If we ship outside the state of Hawaii there will be no sales tax added.
