Alex Gray's first ride on a CI MID

Minutes after picking up his new 6’7 Mid, Alex Gray took this beauty for its maiden voyage just a few minutes from our factory. Off to a great start it seems. He’s riding with 6.5” center and 3.6” sides from our CI Mid set of fins.

Cosmic Creek | Behind the Boards Pt.1 w/ Britt Merrick

Much of surfing's history can be traced through surfboard design. Each year, one of the most fun, educational parts of Cosmic Creek is the surfboards. Whether it's the thick, down-railed single fins of the seventies or the skatey, curvey twin fins of the 80s, the surfboards ridden at Cosmic give us a direct line into surfing's experimental eras and the way people were surfing on these crafts.

As we approach the 25th Annual Cosmic Creek event, we thought it would be cool to check in with some of the shapers today for a look back at these boards they or their label made back in the day. To kick it off, we stopped by the CI factory to pay Britt Merrick a visit and have him feel out a 1970's stinger shaped by his dad, Al Merrick.

Cosmic Creek is June 3rd & 4th at Salt Creek Beach in Dana Point! Join us for a free concert on the grass on Saturday evening at 5pm. More info: https://www.vissla.com/blogs/news/visslas-25th-annual-cosmic-creek

Italo Ferreira Tests The 2022 Winning Board | Stab in the Dark

In Stab in the Dark 2022, Jack Robinson selected the Channel Islands CI Pro as his winning board.

This year, Channel Islands' head shaper Britt Merrick has designed a slightly updated version of the CI Pro for Italo Ferreira to test — the CI 2.Pro, which offers a similar outline but slightly less rocker.

Will Italo love it, or kick it to the bin? Watch the full episode 2 of Stab in the Dark here to find out:

He’s also stoked about the custom Mavs Gun Britt shaped him with a stunning color lamination by Golden State Glassing. Peter will ride this 10’ beauty the day the Eddie gets called this winter!

Britt and CI Team Tour Japan

Over the past several decades, Channel Islands Surfboards and the Merrick family have held close ties with Japan and its passionate surf community. In short, we love Japan! The people, the food, the vibes are all so great. With the debut of our new CI Pro shortboard model, we wanted to share our stoke for this board with Japan via a little CI Pro movie screening tour. We rallied Britt and some of the CI crew in California (Parker, Tanner, and Devon) to head over with him, where they linked up with CI Japan team riders like Mar, Kaito and Hide along the way.

This video by Alex Kilauano captures the many flavorful moments from the adventure, including a dream session at the Surf Stadium wave pool with special guest Tom Carroll.

IMMERSION: Joao Chianca Tahiti Edit

The saga of João Chianca (aka "Chumbinho") has to be regarded as one of this year’s biggest storylines in professional competition surfing.

A young, promising rookie qualifies for the CT, deals with what many critics have called "a less-than-fair seeding system," puts on some of the season’s best heats in a range of conditions, and quickly vanishes from tour due to the World Surf League's new mid-year cut.

Chumbinho’s misfortune left many of us wishing we could have seen him surf a CT venue where he was sure to shine — Tahiti. Thanks to this edit "Immersion," our wish is granted!

He is riding CI Pro and Happy Traveler.
