Happy Traveler

Happy Traveler

Channel Islands
Owners Rating:
The Happy Traveler, designed by Britt Merrick, is the ultimate board for big waves and diverse surf conditions. Building on the proven rocker curve of the Happy, it is tuned for size, power, and quality. The Traveler features decreased concave between the fins, a straighter pulled-in outline in the back third, and leading fins placed closer to the rail for optimal hold and control. With thickness in the forward deck and rail, it enhances paddling power and performance in the barrel. The Traveler, with a round pin and thruster or quad setup, is the one-board travel quiver for memorable surf experiences.
