Eco Carbon Tech: Britt Breakdown

- Introducing Channel Islands Surfboards’ Eco Carbon Tech (ECT): a new carbon hand-lamination that will level-up your performance. ECT built boards are livelier, stronger, familiar feeling underfoot, and environmentally responsible.
ECT boards are hand-built by the same crew of surfers that have been crafting your boards for years. Available in PU/PE and EPS/Epoxy constructions, ECT can be custom ordered on any board-allowing your board to be built just for you and never leaving you stuck between sizes.
For those wanting to take their surfing performance to the next level, look no further than Channel Islands’ ECT built boards.
LIVELIER
- Eco Carbon Tech’s (ECT) construction creates a Livelier PU/PE or EPS/Epoxy board
- ECT construction uses a carbon resin that allows for a more traditional feeling flex pattern, albeit a more dynamic one that enhances any board’s performance
STRONGER
-15% stronger than standard lamination
-Performance of a single layer of fiberglass-durability of two
FAMILIAR
- ECT is more familiar feeling than other type of carbon build
- Most carbon-built boards are quite stiff, and don’t dent on the deck, which creates a rigid shell around the board-making its flex foreign feeling.
-ECT enhances the level of performance you’ve been accustomed to from your standard shortboard construction
ECT GLASSING
-Stock: Single 6oz deck/4oz bottom (Pro Light)
= Strength of 4+4 deck/4 bottom
-Team: Single 4oz deck/4oz bottom (Team Light)
= Strength of 6 deck/4 bottom
SMALLER FOOTPRINT
- Uses 90% less energy than virgin carbon fiber
- Recycled carbon saves waste from going into landfills

I wish someone would show a new board review by an average dad trying to squeeze in an hour sesh early Saturday before the kids and wife are up.
That would be cool to see the transformation.
There’s no way we can tell what that tech or board can do for us watching these master chefs slicing and dicing veggies.
If you can’t tell you not ready for one
Smart application of milled carbon for a bunch of reasons highlighted in this video. Nice work Team CI R&D. Got me thinking about adding standard milled fibreglass to deck laminations. Cheers
Very interesting!
QUESTION: does this mean that instead of say a 4/4+4 layering, you get to use less glass if you wanted to, or get more strength (i.e. less pressure dents) using the same number of layers?
How does it compare to epoxy?
Would be super interesting to do a blind test with three boards, each all black, each different tech. Have a similar group testing them like in the STAB all stars. (Surfer scientist speaking here 😂)
Nice stuff
Agree ,.,, yes less glass
Thats funny. It took me a minute to realize that's Peter Mel. I thought Britt Merrick was doing an interview with Steve O.
I’ll be shopping for an ect after this
Will this be available for the Bobby quad?
Lemme get a Black Beauty in that eco carbon!!! LET'S GO!!! I hope Berry T. aka Bear 🐻 Dawg, watches this!!! 🤙
So how do we fix these? I had a customer who broke the tip of his nose off and emailed you guys but didn't get a response. Is there a way for us repair guys to match this?
That is a very good question!
Just fix it like a normal surfboard and add carbon fiber powder dust to the resin make sure you use the the right resin for the foam pu foam polyester resin or epoxy. Eps foam only epoxy😊
@@ash.lawrence You can definitely use Epoxy resin on PU foam, a construction also known as PE. That is what the ECT PU construction is - Poly foam with carbon fiber mixed into epoxy resin. Or EPS foam with carbon fibre mixed into epoxy resin
I hate black boards the wax is constantly trying to get off the board
Just put on gorilla grip
Not convinced
worst glassed boards in the business. Buy em if you want to break your board and waste money
Why ?
Boring.
@@DanielHollingsworth Very safe.
