“Age gracefully on this latest mash-up between MR and Mayhem. The California Mid, a logical (and literal) extension, of the CA-Twin.”

Spearheaded by MR and his core customers down in Australia, the ever popular California Twin series just got a bit more length. Mark made it back to California in Summer ’24. We developed and re-introduced many of his iconic and classic models, built a bunch of custom orders, discussed his line of boards…and the gracefully aging part of his demographic. During his time here, we were fortunate to get together and design this latest addition to the CA-Twin series… The California Mid.

As the name simply states, it’s a Mid-length version of our ever popular “CA-Twin”, stretched out to fill the niche Mid-length aficionado. A lot of surfers have become comfortable with longer rail lines in the past half decade and Mark’s customers (both in Australia and USA) were repeatedly requesting a board like this model be made…so we sat down this summer and made it happen.

Designed to be ridden 4-6” longer than the Ca-Twin for the smaller sizes and … 8”-12” longer for the larger sizes. We retained the main design elements that made the CA-Twin such a fun and popular design:

Single Concave bottom, nose to tail, with double concave throughout fins.
Flat deck, with down soft rails and a foiled out nose and tail.
Iconic Mark Richards winged swallow tail.
Two+1 fin set up, with MR’s wildly popular signature Twin+ trailer fins recommended, to keep things fast and loose.
A low overall rocker, for speed and glide, but with a curvy rail-line rocker, to keep things quick turning and maneuverable.

By stretching the outline, we pulled the tail in a bit, to allow a wider range sweet spot, for standing and turning, also lending more range on wave size and type, making the California Mid a great travel

companion. Keep the glide and the vibe alive, even if you don’t want the daily fight, on a short little fishy type.Age gracefully on this latest mash-up between MR and Mayhem. The California Mid, a logical (and literal) extension, of the CA-Twin.
