One of the newest edition to the Rusty quiver, the Happy Shovel will command the lineup. Ideal for the knee to shoulder-high day, but its limits are yet to be determined. Designed with high surface area and the volume that goes with that, it creates a board that paddles and planes with ease. Combine the double-barrel concave and shortboard rails and it allows you to explore new lines and traverse flat sections easily. We designed it with the five fin setup for even more versatility. Our team riders across the globe have been giving the Happy Shovel two thumbs up… a fun board to surf when you want to change things up.
