Rarely has a new board generated this much excitement at Boardshop HQ, we're stoked to bring you a global first, the Pyzel Crisis Twin surfboard, a take down of Pyzel's Mid , the Mid Length Crisis.
The inspiration came from one of the team here who had been hunting for a round tail twinny but couldn't find exactly what they wanted, after a few chats with those in the know the Crisis Twin was conceived.
If you want a board that is fast and super smooth but loose enough to get it moving from rail to rail this bad boy ticks all the boxes. It's also a cracking paddler, this board features a beak nose to smuggle a little extra volume up front without thickening up the rails which would limit performance. You'll see a jump in your wave count when comparing to a standard shortboard but unlike lots of twins it doesn't just go in a straight line fast, turns are precise and the curvy outline gives it a lively responsive feel. There is a strong double concave running almost the whole length of the board which generates lift and so speed and a gentle vee out of the tail to keep it loose.
Sizing your Crisis Twin is pretty easy, you can go as short as you like as long as you keep the volume a couple of litres up on your everyday driver. If you're considering the Crisis Twin as your first proper surfboard or maybe you want a more forgiving ride, then you'll need to go a little longer to get the required volume.
Jon Pyzel was raised in California, Santa Barbara to be exact and first started surfing while in junior high. Jon soon became hooked on surfing and was riding boards shaped by Carpinteria and Rincon Designs legend Matt Moore. Matt put Jon on his team and always took time to explain the finer points of surfboard shaping and surfboard design with Jon often watching-on as Matt shaped his boards.
Fast forward to 1992 and Jon made a permanent move to Oahu’s North Shore where he picked up work repairing boards at Country Surfboards. Jon then started working with master shaper and North Shore legend Jeff Bushman who used Jon as his back-shaper which proved to be the start of a glossy career in surfboard design and shaping.
The list of team riders speaks for itself with some of the greatest surfers of all-time still choosing Pyzel surfboards to compete at the very highest level and take on the worlds most challenging waves, who isn't familiar with John John's incredible surfing?

I asked one of the guys at Pyzel today about ordering the Mid Length Crisis as a quad. He said they have done it but don’t get that request a lot, BUT he said they had a demo day on Oahu and the Mid Length Crisis as a twin with 4 channels was a big hit with everyone who tried it.
looks sweet !
Its even better when you surf it! We are loving it.
So sick
Stoked you love it.
I'm over here in the states... Do you know if Pyzel is going to release this model at any point, or it's exclusive to your shop?
Thanks for your comment. This is not exclusive with us but we worked with the factory to make this model come about. You can order through us and we can ship to the US.
Give that Grom a quiver 😁
What fins would you recommend with this? The CI Britt or something more upright like the Son of Cobra?
Upright, try the NVS Apex Album fins. They are fire!
how do you think the Pyzel Wildcat would compare to this?
Very different. Different outline, rocker, concave, wave range...
Is this available in the US?
You can order from us and we can ship to the US for sure.
Looks like a stepped down CI twin pin?
By step down, I assume you mean, more user friendly, with a touch more paddle speed, wave entry and flow, but with as much fun and performance, then yep, you nailed it.
Yew first!
